Use Poetry_ inside Nox_ sessions

This package provides a drop-in replacement for ``session.install`` in Nox sessions.
It modifies its behavior in two ways:

- Packages are pinned to the versions specified in Poetry's lock file.
- The argument ``"."`` is replaced by a wheel built from the package.


Installation
------------

Install ``nox-poetry`` from the Python Package Index:

.. code:: console

   $ pip install nox-poetry


**Important:**
This package must be installed into the same environment that Nox is run from.
If you installed Nox using pipx_,
use the following command to install this package into the same environment:

.. code:: console

   $ pipx inject nox nox-poetry


Usage
-----

Invoke ``nox_poetry.patch()`` at the top of your ``noxfile.py``, and you're good to go.
``nox-poetry`` intercepts calls to ``session.install``
and uses Poetry to export a `constraints file`_ and build the package behind the scenes.

If you prefer a less magical, more explicit approach,
you can also invoke ``nox_poetry.install(session, ...)`` instead of ``session.install(...)``.
Pass ``nox_poetry.WHEEL`` or ``nox_poetry.SDIST`` to build and install the local package
using the specified distribution format.

Packages installed in this way must be managed as dependencies in Poetry.

For example, the following Nox session runs your test suite:

.. code:: python

   # noxfile.py
   import nox
   import nox_poetry

   nox_poetry.patch()

   @nox.session
   def tests(session: Session) -> None:
       """Run the test suite."""
       session.install(".")
       session.install("pytest")
       session.run("pytest")

More precisely, the session builds a wheel from the local package,
installs the wheel as well as the ``pytest`` package, and
invokes ``pytest`` to run the test suite against the installation.


Why?
----

Consider what would happen in the above session with an unpatched ``session.install``:

- Package dependencies would only be constrained by the wheel metadata, not by the lock file.
  In other words, their versions would not be *pinned*.
- The ``pytest`` dependency would not be constrained at all.
- Poetry would be installed as a build backend every time
  (although this could be avoided by passing the ``"--no-build-isolation"`` option).

Unpinned dependencies mean that your checks are not reproducible and deterministic,
which can lead to surprises in Continuous Integration and when collaborating with others.
You can solve these issues by declaring ``pytest`` as a development dependency,
and installing your package and its dependencies using ``poetry install``:

.. code:: python

   @nox.session
   def tests(session: Session) -> None:
       """Run the test suite."""
       session.run("poetry", "install", external=True)
       session.run("pytest")

Unfortunately, this approach comes with its own set of problems:

- Checks run against an editable installation of your package,
  i.e. your local copy of the code, instead of the installed wheel your users see.
- The package is installed, as well as all of its core and development dependencies.
  This is wasteful when you only need to run ``black`` or ``flake8``.
  It also goes against the idea of running checks in isolated environments.
- Poetry may decide to install packages into its own virtual environment instead of the one provided by Nox.

``nox-poetry`` uses a third approach.
Third-party packages are installed by exporting the lock file in ``requirements.txt`` format,
and passing it as a `constraints file`_ to pip.
When installing your own package, Poetry is used to build a wheel, which is then installed by pip.

In summary, this approach brings the following advantages:

- You can manage tools like ``pytest`` as development dependencies in Poetry.
- Dependencies are pinned by Poetry's lock file, making checks predictable and deterministic.
- You can run checks against an installed wheel, instead of your local copy of the code.
- Every tool can run in an isolated environment with minimal dependencies.
- No need to install your package with all its dependencies if all you need is some linter.

API
---

``nox_poetry.patch(*, distribution_format=nox_poetry.WHEEL)``:
   Monkey-patch `nox.sessions.Session.install`_ to use ``nox_poetry.install``.
   The optional ``distribution_format`` parameter determines
   how to handle the special ``"."`` argument.
   By default, this is replaced by a wheel built from the package.
   Pass ``nox_poetry.SDIST`` to build an sdist archive instead.

``nox_poetry.install(session, *args, **kwargs)``:
   Install packages into a Nox session using Poetry.

   The ``nox_poetry.install`` function
   installs dependencies into a Nox session,
   using the versions specified in Poetry's lock file.
   The function arguments are the same as those for `nox.sessions.Session.install`_:
   The first argument is the ``Session`` object,
   and the remaining arguments are command-line arguments for `pip install`_,
   typically just the package or packages to be installed.
   The constants ``WHEEL`` and ``SDIST`` are replaced by a distribution archive
   built for the local package.
   Keyword arguments are the same as those for `nox.sessions.Session.run`_.
