(🎁) Support isolated dependencies that install like `pyprojectx`/`pipx`

Feature Request
pseudo pyproject.toml:
[tool.poetry.group.dev.dependencies]
pytest = "6.0.0"
black = { version = "^21.12b0", isolated = true }
OR:
[tool.poetry.group.test.dependencies]
pytest = "6.0.0"
[tool.poetry.group.lint.dependencies]
black = { version = "^21.12b0", isolated = true }
I have dev dependencies that are never imported by my source code or my test code, they act more as standalone cli applications. I still want the version to be locked down, and provide a one click install for developers working with my project, but I don't want the possibility of that dependency interfering with dependency resolution or accidentally becoming imported due to it being in the pythonpath.
When declared with the optional isolated properties, I want Poetry to install the dependency like a pyprojectx context would, completely isolated from the other dependencies.
I would want it installed, isolated within the current project, but also isolated from the project dependencies.
Of course, to copy the functionality of pyprojectx, multiple dependencies could be specified into each context/group
[tool.poetry.group.list]
allisolated = true
[tool.poetry.group.lint.dependencies]
black = "^21.12b0"
flake8 = "^4.0.1"
isort = "^5.10.1"
pre-commit = "^2.16.0"
pylint = "^2.11.2"
pytest = "^7.0.0rc1"
[tool.poetry.group.lint-mypy]
isolated = true
[tool.poetry.group.lint-mypy.dependencies]
basedmypy = "^2.5.0"
types-docutils = "^0.17.4"
types-python-dateutil = "^2.8.6"
types-PyYAML = "^6.0.3"
types-requests = "^2.27.7"
types-setuptools = "^57.4.7"
types-urllib3 = "^1.26.4"
Ideally this exact scenario would benefit from some kind of sub-grouping feature such that poetry install --without lint would also not install basedmypy, but that's an extremely minor point IMO.
There's a draft PR at #5740, feedback is welcome there
This is how I expect to see this feature works and explained it originally in #7421
[tool.poetry.dependencies]
python = ">= 3.7, <= 3.11"
[tool.poetry.group.lint]
optional = true
# depends_on by default is [ 'main' ]
depends_on = []
[tool.poetry.group.lint.dependencies]
python = ">= 3.7, <= 3.8"
flake8 = "*"
[tool.poetry.group.typing]
optional = true
depends_on = [ 'main' ]
[tool.poetry.group.typing.dependencies]
mypy = "*"
In this example :
- lint is only intended to be executed with python 3.7 or 3.8
- typing is intended to be executed with the same python versions the project has
- lint is isolated, so dependencies required by flake8 (
importlib-metadata<5) doesn't influence other packages in other groups if they don't depend on lint -
poetry install --with lintwill fail becauselintdoes not have main independs_on - when doing
poetry install --only typing, it will installmaintoo since it depends on it
