Pipfile: the replacement for requirements.txt

[GMishx]

That would be a good change. But will it effect the existing pyproject.toml (compatibility with PEP 518)?

[Kaushl2208]

Yes, It will replace pyproject.toml and it might affect setup.py. Not sure, about it rn.

Can I submit a PR for it?

[GMishx]

Yes, sure @Kaushl2208. Just make sure the current build wheel build should not break because of this change.

[lohithmunakala]

Is this still open @GMishx ? I wanna work on this.

[GMishx]

Yes @lohithmunakala, from my end the issue is still open. @Kaushl2208 do let us know if you are working on the issue.

It will be nice to assign the issue to the person currently working on it.

[lohithmunakala]

If @Kaushl2208 isn't working on it rn, can you help me get started with the issue @GMishx ?

[Kaushl2208]

Hey @GMishx, We can assign this issue to @lohithmunakala. I don't have the rights to do so.

Hey @GMishx, We can assign this issue to @lohithmunakala. I don't have the rights to do so.

Meanwhile @lohithmunakala You can start working on this issue. It will be a great help.

[GMishx]

I have assigned the ticket to you @lohithmunakala .

You can start looking into pipenv documentation: https://pipenv.pypa.io/en/stable/
Expectation from this change is:

1. Removal of dependencies from requirements.txt and setup.py
2. Should not break PEP 517 changes (try to build Dockerfile to test)
3. Clear separation of additional dependencies like csv and json files generated by running python3 setup.py build
