Question: will unidep handle building source distribution archives via pypa build?

[glemieux]

I'm really enjoying this package, this is great and solves a lot of problems I've been struggling with. I should also note I'm new to python packaging and distribution. I noted recently that I have to move the dependencies out from behind the [tool.unidep] section in my pyproject.toml to be able to use pypa's build frontend. Is this something that unidep plans on providing an interface for?

Hi @glemieux, thanks for opening an issue and I am glad that you have found it useful!

Perhaps I don't understand your question, but unidep just works with the build command when using either Setuptools or Hatch. In fact, unidep will parse the dependencies in [tool.unidep], extract the pip installable packages and dynamically populate the dependencies field.
