Arguments

- -
SRC_FILE

Include all packages listed in the given requirements.in files.

- -

If a pyproject.toml, setup.py, or setup.cfg file is provided, uv will extract the requirements for the relevant project.

- -

If - is provided, then requirements will be read from stdin.

- -
-

Options

-
--constraint, -c constraint

Constrain versions using the given requirements files.

- -

Constraints files are requirements.txt-like files that only control the version of a requirement that’s installed. However, including a package in a constraints file will not trigger the installation of that package.

- -

This is equivalent to pip’s --constraint option.

- -
--override override

Override versions using the given requirements files.

- -

Overrides files are requirements.txt-like files that force a specific version of a requirement to be installed, regardless of the requirements declared by any constituent package, and regardless of whether this would be considered an invalid resolution.

- -

While constraints are additive, in that they’re combined with the requirements of the constituent packages, overrides are absolute, in that they completely replace the requirements of the constituent packages.

+
--extra extra

Include optional dependencies from the extra group name; may be provided more than once.

-
--build-constraint, -b build-constraint

Constrain build dependencies using the given requirements files when building source distributions.

+

Only applies to pyproject.toml, setup.py, and setup.cfg sources.

-

Constraints files are requirements.txt-like files that only control the version of a requirement that’s installed. However, including a package in a constraints file will not trigger the installation of that package.
