Pipenv thinks a hidden path is a python version

  commands = pipenv --python {envpython} install .

elif line and line[0].isdigit() or re.match(r'[\d\.]+', line):

Perhaps that should use parentheses instead of brackets (or just omit the . altogether)?

[hansingt]

This issue is open for over one year now and still persists.

Is there any progress on this? Can we expect it to be fixed soon?

[matteius]

@hansingt Nobody is assigned to working on this particular issue presently AFAIK -- Please see the latest pinned issue in the backlog and feel free to help contribute towards the solution.

[matteius]

Just noting that the original error report is for py 3.6 in the example, and doesn't call out the version of pipenv tested with. What is the latest version of pipenv you have seen the issue with @hansingt ? Seems this might be a pythonfinder issue if you still have the issue with latest pipenv, as we already have vendored in the latest pythonfinder==1.2.10

[hansingt]

@matteius I can reproduce the issue on Ubuntu 22.04 using the following versions:

python: 3.10.4
pipenv: 2022.6.7

Simple script to reproduce this, utilizes tox and tox-pipenv:

[tox]
requires = tox-pipenv
envlist = py310

[testenv]
skip_install = true

and the following Pipfile:

[[source]]
url = "https://pypi.org/simple"
verify_ssl = true
name = "pypi"

[packages]

[dev-packages]
pytest = "*"

[requires]
python_version = "3.10"

tox -e py310 gives the following output:

tox -e py310
.tox create: /home/tha/test/.tox/.tox
.tox installdeps: tox-pipenv, tox >= 3.25.0
py310 create: /home/tha/test/.tox/py310

Thanks @hansingt -- would you mind opening a report with pythonfinder library and link it back here? I don't have access to that repository at this time so we need to go through the proper channels to get it fixed in pythonfinder and a new version that we can vendor into pipenv.

[hansingt]

@matteius I opened the issue at pythonfinder, but I took a closer look at the problem and I don't think it's problem with pythonfinder but with pipenv:

The traceback mentions

pipenv/pipenv/utils/shell.py

Line 309 in 16722f3

result = finder.find_python_version(line)

, looking at it, it seems to me, that it takes the wrong branch, because in

pipenv/pipenv/utils/shell.py

Line 308 in 16722f3

elif line and line[0].isdigit() or re.match(r"[\d\.]+", line):

the re.match(r"[\d.]+", line) matches the dot in the .tox/bin/python line.
