需求文件使用扩展的pip格式，这只在您需要用更强的约束来补充setup.py时有用，例如指定某些依赖项必须来自的确切url，或者pip freeze的输出将整个包集冻结为已知的工作版本。如果不需要额外的约束，则只使用setup.py。如果你觉得你真的需要发布一个requirements.txt，你可以让它变成一行:

.

它将是有效的，并准确地引用同一目录下的setup.py的内容。

另一个可能的解决方案……

def gather_requirements(top_path=None):
    """Captures requirements from repo.

    Expected file format is: requirements[-_]<optional-extras>.txt

    For example:

        pip install -e .[foo]

    Would require:

        requirements-foo.txt

        or

        requirements_foo.txt

    """
    from pip.download import PipSession
    from pip.req import parse_requirements
    import re

    session = PipSession()
    top_path = top_path or os.path.realpath(os.getcwd())
    extras = {}
    for filepath in tree(top_path):
        filename = os.path.basename(filepath)
        basename, ext = os.path.splitext(filename)
        if ext == '.txt' and basename.startswith('requirements'):
            if filename == 'requirements.txt':
                extra_name = 'requirements'
            else:
                _, extra_name = re.split(r'[-_]', basename, 1)
            if extra_name:
                reqs = [str(ir.req) for ir in parse_requirements(filepath, session=session)]
                extras.setdefault(extra_name, []).extend(reqs)
    all_reqs = set()
    for key, values in extras.items():
        all_reqs.update(values)
    extras['all'] = list(all_reqs)
    return extras

然后使用…

reqs = gather_requirements()
install_reqs = reqs.pop('requirements', [])
test_reqs = reqs.pop('test', [])
...
setup(
    ...
    'install_requires': install_reqs,
    'test_requires': test_reqs,
    'extras_require': reqs,
    ...
)

下面是一个完整的hack(用pip 9.0.1测试)，基于Romain的回答，解析requirements.txt，并根据当前的环境标记进行过滤:

from pip.req import parse_requirements

requirements = []
for r in parse_requirements('requirements.txt', session='hack'):
    # check markers, such as
    #
    #     rope_py3k    ; python_version >= '3.0'
    #
    if r.match_markers():
        requirements.append(str(r.req))

print(requirements)

我为此创建了一个可重用函数。它实际上解析需求文件的整个目录，并将它们设置为extras_require。

    Parse a glob of requirements and return a dictionary of setup() options.
    Create a dictionary that holds your options to setup() and update it using this.
    Pass that as kwargs into setup(), viola

    Any files that are not a standard option name (ie install, tests, setup) are added to extras_require with their
    basename minus ext. An extra key is added to extras_require: 'all', that contains all distinct reqs combined.

    Keep in mind all literally contains `all` packages in your extras.
    This means if you have conflicting packages across your extras, then you're going to have a bad time.
    (don't use all in these cases.)

    If you're running this for a Docker build, set `combine=True`.

从表面上看，requirements.txt和setup.py似乎是愚蠢的副本，但重要的是要理解，虽然形式相似，但预期的功能非常不同。

当指定依赖项时，包作者的目标是说“无论你在哪里安装这个包，为了使这个包工作，这些都是你需要的其他包。”

相反，部署作者(在不同的时间可能是同一个人)有不同的工作，因为他们说“这是我们收集和测试的包的列表，我现在需要安装”。

包作者为各种各样的场景编写程序，因为他们将自己的工作以他们可能不知道的方式使用，并且无法知道将在他们的包旁边安装哪些包。为了成为一个好邻居并避免与其他包的依赖版本冲突，它们需要指定尽可能广泛的依赖版本。这就是setup.py中的install_required所做的。

The deployment author writes for a very different, very specific goal: a single instance of an installed application or service, installed on a particular computer. In order to precisely control a deployment, and be sure that the right packages are tested and deployed, the deployment author must specify the exact version and source-location of every package to be installed, including dependencies and dependency's dependencies. With this spec, a deployment can be repeatably applied to several machines, or tested on a test machine, and the deployment author can be confident that the same packages are deployed every time. This is what a requirements.txt does.

So you can see that, while they both look like a big list of packages and versions, these two things have very different jobs. And it's definitely easy to mix this up and get it wrong! But the right way to think about this is that requirements.txt is an "answer" to the "question" posed by the requirements in all the various setup.py package files. Rather than write it by hand, it's often generated by telling pip to look at all the setup.py files in a set of desired packages, find a set of packages that it thinks fits all the requirements, and then, after they're installed, "freeze" that list of packages into a text file (this is where the pip freeze name comes from).

所以结论是:

setup.py should declare the loosest possible dependency versions that are still workable. Its job is to say what a particular package can work with. requirements.txt is a deployment manifest that defines an entire installation job, and shouldn't be thought of as tied to any one package. Its job is to declare an exhaustive list of all the necessary packages to make a deployment work. Because these two things have such different content and reasons for existing, it's not feasible to simply copy one into the other.

交叉张贴我从这个SO问题的答案，另一个简单的，pip版本证明解决方案。

try:  # for pip >= 10
    from pip._internal.req import parse_requirements
    from pip._internal.download import PipSession
except ImportError:  # for pip <= 9.0.3
    from pip.req import parse_requirements
    from pip.download import PipSession

requirements = parse_requirements(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'requirements.txt'), session=PipSession())

if __name__ == '__main__':
    setup(
        ...
        install_requires=[str(requirement.req) for requirement in requirements],
        ...
    )

然后把所有的需求放在项目根目录下的requirements.txt下。
