As part of our ongoing research on Python dependency management, we noticed that your project explicitly declares several dependencies that are actually transitive — meaning they are already required by top-level packages and do not need to be listed directly.
Dependencies such as
click,itsdangerous,certifi,charset-normalizer,idna,urllib3,zipp,typing_extensions, andpyparsingare not used directly in the project code but are installed automatically through primary packages likeFlaskandrequests.Keeping these transitive dependencies in
requirements.txtorpyproject.tomlunnecessarily locks their versions and increases the maintenance burden, especially during upgrades or conflict resolution. This pull request removes those redundant declarations to allow the resolver to handle them based on the needs of top-level packages. This leads to a cleaner, more maintainable dependency tree.The pip documentation also encourages auditing your top-level requirements and removing unused or transitive ones to simplify the dependency graph and minimize the risk of version conflicts.
Importantly, after removing these transitive dependencies, we confirmed that the project’s test suite still passes successfully. This indicates that none of the removed dependencies are used directly by the codebase.
