Develop multiple projects locally and with GitHub

[jaymegordo]

Say I have three projects using poetry:

• project_a
• project_b
• project_c (generic utils to be shared between a + b)

I would like to be able to develop them all in tandem locally, without having to push every little change in project_c to GitHub and re sync changes with project_a or project_b.

I can accomplish this by using a local path dependency:

# project_a

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
project_c = {path = "../project_c", develop = true}

BUT I would also like to be able to share this project_a or project_b with other people without having to have them also clone project_c in the appropriate location.

Is there any way to have something that would work like:

# project_a

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
project_c = {path = "../project_c", git = "https://github.com/github_user/project_c.git", develop = true}

Where the GitHub repo is used as a "fallback" in cases where project_c does not exist locally?

Any options using install scripts? (I don't have experience with this)

Any other workflow tips to accomplish what basically comes down to:
"Share code between multiple projects, locally if available, else GitHub"?

Any updates on this?

You're essentially asking for one package to have two sources, which poetry does not support, and is very unlikely to support.
