Limitations/Inefficiencies
- Requires Python 3.5 and after. (
osnap
uses the
embedded Python for Windows, first
provided in Python 3.5)
- Since
osnap
includes everything a package installs, the resultant installation will generally be larger than the
minimum actually required by the application.
- The user has to specify all the required packages. There is no ‘auto discovery’. Since auto discovery can be a
source of issues, this is actually more of a feature. Also, this is derived from
requirements.txt
, so the
user should have this already anyway.
