poetry 2.1.3 tool.poetry.include difference compared with poetry 1.8.2 tool.poetry.include

[Abhinav-Upadhya-ni]

hello!

So, we see an issue where we've converted our
[tool.poetry] # for poetry 1.8.2
rest of the body
include = ["package/*", "package/**/*"]

to

[too.poetry]
rest of the body
include = [
{ path = "package", format = ["sdist", "wheel"]},
]

From what I've read this should include all files within sub-directory and work the same as what we have for poetry 1.8.2,
but it doesn't, we see some files missing when we use the packaged 'package' file.

can someone help me understand this more deeply?

what would be the right way for me here?

Thanks

Could you provide a reproducible example? btw your name "package", suggests that you might want to use packages directive instead of `include. See: https://python-poetry.org/docs/pyproject/#packages

[Secrus]

again, if you could provide an example, it would be easier to provide a decent solution to your problem

Have you already tried 2.2?

From the history:

Fix an issue where explicitly included files that are in .gitignore were not included in the distribution (#874).

ah, no, we haven't tried 2.2.0. but is there a workaround that could help me temporarily until we upgrade poetry to 2.2.0?

[Abhinav-Upadhya-ni]

when we do,
[too.poetry]
rest of the body
include = [
{ path = "package/*", format = ["sdist", "wheel"]},
]
it seems to pass, is that something I can try around for all the toml files?

[radoering]

Probably. A similar glob has been mentioned in python-poetry/poetry-core#850 (comment) as a workaround. Maybe, package/**/* if you also want to include subfolders.
