Issue

When I try to see the list of outdated dependencies (poetry show --outdated), poetry hangs. And “poetry updated” gets stuck on “Resolving dependencies” and incrementing time (166.8s).

Running with --vvv:

$ poetry -vvv show --outdated
Using virtualenv: .../.venv

Pressing CTRL+C shows:

I ran into a similar issue today with poetry version 1.1.4. I was able to “solve” it by doing:

  • poetry cache clear --all .
  • rm poetry.lock
  • poetry install -vvv (for some reason, I ran it without the -vvv flag before and it kept hanging, at least with -vvv I see what’s happening) 🤷🏻

I hit the same and I can confirm that running: poetry cache:clear --all . solves the problem

Just FYI: I had a similar issue like the one above, with py-spy showing the following things:

 poetry add -G dev rich --verbose

Running poetry cache clear --all . after removing the lock file solved it for me (removing the lock file itself didn’t change a thing, but no idea if the cache clearing alone would have solved it.).

I just had this today and it looks like mine was stuck looping on the following:

   1: fact: sphinxcontrib-katex (0.6.1) depends on sphinx (>=1.6)
   1: selecting sphinxcontrib-katex (0.6.1)

I had literally hundreds of the above lines printing out before I finally killed it, not sure why that is causing it to get stuck

I’ve had Poetry take over 800 seconds before giving up [it was bascially never finishing]. I tried poetry 1.0.0, 1.0.5, 1.1.0a1 and had the same results. I also cleared the cache on each poetry version I tried, with the same problem still happening.

Here is the log:

Poetry never finishing update.txt

I’ve attached a poetry update -vvv log @cgungor that showcases the issue. Reading the log, it looks like it keeps trying older and older versions of botocore due to docutils = "<0.16" requirement in botocore. Earlier in the process it decided to use docutils 0.16 due to sphinx (2.4.4) depends on docutils (>=0.12). I don’t know why it did not figure out that docutils(>=0.10,<0.16) is fine with docutils (=0.15.2).

So I tried adding this to my .toml file: docutils = "<0.16". I reran the update and it finished in a about 4.5 seconds. Here is the output of that run:

Pinned Dep, poetry finishing update.txt

So for now I’ll have to keep docutils pinned <0.16 my self, but it would have been really nice for poetry to figure it out on it’s own!

I think it may have something to do with Poetry’s use of cachecontrol (notice the mentions of cachecontrol and lockfile towards end of logs).

If you dig through Poetry’s source you’ll see there is a class PyPiRepository, with an __init__ parameter disable_cache=False by default. It seems like there is not currently a way to disable it through Poetry, and there doesn’t appear to be (relevant) global config overrides for cachecontrol or lockfile …

What you can do in the meantime is to delete the Poetry cache dir and try running again. At first I thought I was still having the issue, but after a bit it moved on. So it really was a filelock deadlock at first for me, and for some reason always getting back into the state upon trying again… but 🤷‍♂️ I guess it is something intermittent.

How to find your cache - well, check the Poetry configuration docs to see about the OS-specific defaults. And you can delete it by hand that way.

There is also poetry cache:clear (version >1 it becomes poetry cache clear syntax). Its CLI docs are not very clear yet but I believe the usage is poetry cache clear $POETRY_VERSION --all

I confirm that this works on Poetry version 1.1.13
