Ever had an issue with conflicting dependencies in python? What information would have helped you fixed it on the spot? Which output/visualization/… would have been useful?
We would love to hear your ideas on how to improve the experience when running into dependency conflicts!
Update on this — VS Code Extension now supports environment conflict visualization in Python repositories, featuring an intuitive and user-friendly interface. When a conflict occurs, users can now select the Resolve in environment debugger option to open an interactive view of environment conflicts.
This feature eliminates the need to interpret complex text outputs, and allows users to quickly identify, analyze, and resolve dependency issues with clear insights. In addition to aiding conflict resolution, this feature also enables comprehensive environment exploration. Every package listed in your lockfile now includes a View package in environment debugger codelens option, allowing you to trace every dependency in your environment and identify its source. Leverage this new feature to enhance productivity, reduce time spent troubleshooting, and maintain stable and reliable Python environments.
