pinner

A tiny console script to verify you have pinned all of your python requirements.

Why you should specify exact version in requirements.txt

Example:

$ cat requirements.txt
PIL
coveralls>=1.0a1
responses==0.3.0
git+https://github.com/miracle2k/django-assets.git@master#egg=django_assets
-e git+git://github.com/miracle2k/webassets.git@9956fb86c1c750672324b2c95c9a464a0ef11a4f#egg=webassets
git+https://github.com/fcurella/django-recommends.git#egg=django_recommends

$ pinner
./requirements.txt:1:1: R001 Dependency PIL not pinned
./requirements.txt:2:1: R002 Dependency coveralls should be pinned to exact version
./requirements.txt:4:1: R004 VCS dependency django_assets specifies branch/tag, commit expected
./requirements.txt:6:1: R003 VCS dependency django_recommends lacks revision specifier

You can use it in your commit hook or CI tests
