Supporting non-poetry projects

[AbdealiLoKo]

• I'd be willing to implement this feature

Description

I do not use poetry as of now, and just use normal python with a central venv.

So, I have a project structure as:

apps/
    my-pkg/
        project.json
        mypkg/
             __init__.py
        tests/
             __init__.py
    my-pkg2/
        project.json
        mypkg2/
             __init__.py
        tests/
             __init__.py

And in my project.json I have something like:

{
  "projectType": "application",
  "targets": {
    "install": {
      "executor": "nx:run-commands",
      "options": {
        "command": "python -m venv venv && venv/bin/pip install -e {projectRoot}"
      }
    },
    "lint": {
      "executor": "nx:run-commands",
      "options": {
        "commands": [
          "venv/bin/ruff {projectRoot}",
          "venv/bin/black --config .black.toml --check {projectRoot}",
          "node_modules/.bin/prettier --check {projectRoot}"
        ]
      }
    },
   ...
}

I would love to make this more "nx-ey" instead of using nx in this hacky way of just running commands for me.
I am trying to figure out if your python plugin could be used to handle this - or not ?

Motivation

Looking to clean up the way I use nx to leverage nx better.
I have tried https://github.com/hogarthww-labs/nx-python
and https://github.com/nx-python/PyNX
both seem to be unmaintained.

Suggested Implementation

Not sure - if there is a clear pat in your mind, I can spend some time in trying to implement it.
But note that I am pretty new to nx pugins...

Alternate Implementations

Keep using run-commands 😞

Hi, I just released support for uv package manager that is a great alternative for poetry, much faster and cleaner.

Awesome, I use uv too :)
Will try it out !
