Ran Ziv updated ARIA-357:
-------------------------
Priority: Minor (was: Trivial)
> Detect plugin dependencies collisions at plugin installation
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARIA-357
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIA-357
> Project: AriaTosca
> Issue Type: Story
> Reporter: Ran Ziv
> Priority: Minor
>
> ARIA plugins are isolated from one another, yet their dependencies may
> collide with Python packages installed in the general ARIA python environment.
> To avoid messing up the ARIA installation, when plugins are installed, a
> constraint file is used to limit changes to existing packages in the ARIA
> environment in the case of collisions.
> This could lead to a problem where a plugin gets successfully installed, but
> then is unable to run properly since some of its dependencies are set in the
> wrong versions.
> ARIA could detect these issues at plugin installation time, and alert the
> user about this issue.
> Note: This would not help in the case where changes to the environment are
> made after the plugin has already installed - However, since this would
> require a manual installation of Python packages to the general ARIA
> environment, it makes sense that the user making this installation be
> required to be responsible and avoid such collisions, or use a separate
> Python environment for this installation.
> See [this
