Currently we install the latest version of pipenv in CI for every run, and we do not specify a version for use with local development. This creates a situation where spontaneous breakage can occur.
There is currently a bug in pipenv >2023.7.23 that causes pipenv lock to get stuck in a recursive loop, ballooning the local cache size to multipble gigabytes and eventually raising a ResolutionTooDeep exception.
Steps to reproduce
1. Create a Pipfile containing the minimal requirements to trigger this bug.
[[source]] url = "https://pypi.python.org/simple" verify_ssl = true name = "pypi" [packages] boto3 = ">=1.10" ibm-platform-services = ">=0.17.8"
2. Create a virtual environment and install pipenv
python -m venv .venvs/pipenv .venvs/pipenv/bin/python -m pip install pipenv .venvs/pipenv/bin/pipenv --version
3. Create a virtual environment for development work that pipenv will manage
python -m venv .venvs/dev source .venvs/dev/bin/activate
4. Clear the pipenv cache and create a lock file
.venvs/pipenv/bin/pipenv --clear .venvs/pipenv/bin/pipenv lock -v
This will create a lockfile successfully though sometimes it gets stuck on the first attempt.
5. Run pipenv lock -v several more times without clearing the cache. Usually the third attempt is when things get fun.
for test in $(seq 10); do .venvs/pipenv/bin/pipenv lock -v sleep 5 done
The cache size keeps growing as well:
