This package is a plugin that allows the export of locked packages to various formats.

Note: For now, only the constraints.txt and requirements.txt formats are available.

This plugin provides the same features as the existing export command of Poetry which it will eventually replace.

On Poetry 2.0 and newer, the easiest way to add the export plugin is to declare it as a required Poetry plugin.

[tool.poetry.requires-plugins]
poetry-plugin-export = ">=1.8"

Otherwise, install the plugin via the self add command of Poetry.

poetry self add poetry-plugin-export

If you used pipx to install Poetry you can add the plugin via the pipx inject command.

pipx inject poetry poetry-plugin-export

Otherwise, if you used pip to install Poetry you can add the plugin packages via the pip install command.

pip install poetry-plugin-export
