# Update Dev Requirements
Updates `requirements-dev.in` with latest package versions from PyPI while preserving version specifier patterns.
## How It Works
For each package in `requirements-dev.in`:
1. **Parse the version pattern** to understand the "fixed part":
- `pytest==8.*` → fixed: `8`, wildcard at minor level
- `ruff==0.*` → fixed: `0`, wildcard at minor level
- `pytest-cov==7.*` → fixed: `7`, wildcard at minor level
2. **Query PyPI** for the latest version
3. **Update while preserving pattern**:
- `pytest==8.*` with latest `8.4.0` → `pytest==8.*` (already allows 8.x)
- `ruff==0.*` with latest `0.9.2` → `ruff==0.*` (already allows 0.x)
## Execution Steps
1. Read `requirements-dev.in` from the current project
2. For each line with a package version:
- Skip git dependencies (lines with `@` or `git+`)
- Parse package name and version pattern
- Fetch latest version from PyPI: `curl -s https://pypi.org/pypi/{package}/json | jq -r .info.version`
- Calculate new version with same pattern depth
3. Show diff of proposed changes
4. Apply changes after user confirmation
## Version Pattern Rules
| Original | Latest on PyPI | Result |
|----------|----------------|--------|
| `pkg==1.2.*` | `1.5.3` | `pkg==1.5.*` |
| `pkg==1.*` | `2.3.0` | `pkg==2.*` |
| `pkg==1.2.3` | `1.5.3` | `pkg==1.5.3` |
## Skip These Lines
- Git dependencies: `pkg @ git+https://...`
- Comments: Lines starting with `#`
- Empty lines
- Extras without version: `pkg[extra]`
## Example Output
```
