#17813 Full transitive dependency information Issue created by SergeBakharev Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. For the purposes of Software Composition Analysis the ability to export a full transitive dependencies list (including deps of 3rd party reqs) is required, and in a format such as PEP508 (requirements.txt). Currently

./pants dependencies --transitive

provides only the direct 3rd party dependencies in a pants target format, however the full information is present in the lock file. Describe the solution you'd like I believe this functionality can be split into two enhancements to the

dependencies

goal: • an additional flag to show reqs transitive reqs • an additional flag to format this output in in a requirements.txt syntax. I see adjacent work is being done in #17721 with groundwork completed in 20b3710 I would be interested in helping contribute this functionality. Describe alternatives you've considered My current alternative is synthesize such a requirements.text file manually by `pex lock export`ing on the complete lock file, then removing unrelated items. Though for components with pex targets running the built pex via

PEX_INTERPRETER=1

and then running this snippet is quicker:

import pkg_resources
installed_packages = pkg_resources.working_set
installed_packages_list = sorted(["%s==%s" % (i.key, i.version)
     for i in installed_packages])
print(installed_packages_list)
