      Work Description: jkp commented on issue #7851: [BEAM-6702] Loosen up 
dependency specifications
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/7851#issuecomment-472323416
 
 
   I've been running this fork for a few weeks now and have not encountered any 
issues related to these dependency versions: I know that is not systematic but 
I'm not really sure what better testing would look like.
   
   It seems reasonable to proceed with this change give than a: the tests pass 
(if there are worries about this change I would argue the test suites need 
improving) and b: the versions have been upper bounded to mitigate for future 
breaking changes.  Without this change it is very difficult to integrate Beam 
into a production environment as it quickly becomes impossible to find a set of 
compatible dependencies which I think is worse than potential breakage down the 
line (which can be fixed by changing the upper bounds for a dependency should 
we encounter that).

> The fix for [BEAM-3324|https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/7367] introduced a 
> bunch of dependencies in the `[gcp]` `extras_require` specification and 
> locked them to specific versions. Unfortunately this has the side-effect of 
> making it probable that you get version conflicts downstream in projects that 
> include `apache_beam` in their `requirements.txt`.
> As it stands I'm running into issues when I ask 
> [`pip-compile`](https://github.com/jazzband/pip-tools) to resolve 
> dependencies with `apache_beam` in the chain (specified like this `-e 
> git+https://github.com/apache/beam.git@1d13199#egg=apache_beam[gcp]&subdirectory=sdks/python`)
>  - example output:
> ```
> Could not find a version that matches google-cloud-core<0.29dev, 
> <0.30dev,==0.28.1,>=0.28.0,>=0.29.0
> Tried: 0.20.0, 0.20.0, 0.20.0, 0.20.0, 0.21.0, 0.21.0, 0.21.0, 0.21.0,

> 0.28.1, 0.28.1, 0.28.1, 0.29.0, 0.29.0, 0.29.0, 0.29.0, 0.29.1, 0.29.1, 
> 0.29.1, 0.29.1
> There are incompatible versions in the resolved dependencies.
> ```
> Best practice is to lock your versions explicitly when you actually use a 
> library (via a projects `requirements.txt`) but leave the requirements 
> specifications as liberal as possible in `setup.py` - this allows some flex 
> in the dependency resolution system so that you have a higher chance of 
> different libraries playing nice.
> An example would be to change a requirement like 
> `'google-cloud-bigtable==0.31.1'` to be `'google-cloud-bigtable>=0.31.1'` 
> (unless you know of an explicit reason why there is an incompatibility with a 
> newer version of the library) in the `setup.py` file.
