Migrate to Poetry

[khvn26]

Python packaging isn't solved yet but Poetry is the most popular closest-to-the-solution thing out there.

With Poetry, we'll get:

• Dependency locks.
• Automatic venvs.
• Python version pinning.
• Runtime and dev dependencies managed in pyproject.toml.
• Neat build targets in a future Makefile.

Migration checklist

• api project is Poetry-installable.
• Build isn't broken for both Dockerfiles.
• All api- and platform- workflows are not broken.
• Update documentation

Hi folks, I am interested to solve this one. Should this be a one big PR or broken into multiple small PRs?

[dabeeeenster]

I don't think there are TOO many things to change here? So I would go for 1 PR.

[tushar5526]

I think I forgot to add the documentation updates with the PR.

I think I forgot to add the documentation updates with the PR.

Ah yes, could you submit a separate PR with that?

[tushar5526]

I can't seem to find any docs for it, where should I put it ?

I think basic instructions to setup the project, and running tests is enough

https://docs.flagsmith.com/deployment/hosting/locally-api
and
https://docs.flagsmith.com/platform/contributing

Thats all I think!

hey @tushar5526 - just checking to see if you are still planning on working on the docs? No problem if not, but we don't want to duplicate your work - thanks!

[tushar5526]

I would love to do it, but I won't be able to do it till the weekend.

[dabeeeenster]

OK sure no problem - thanks for the reply
