Poetry install not updating scripts

Question

I made a simply change so that a script was moved up a directory. Poetry doesn't seem to recognize that it's been moved since the poetry install or update command does nothing

Installing dependencies from lock file

No dependencies to install or update

and the poetry run script_name command throws while referencing the old path.

[tool.poetry.scripts]
launch = "launcher.launch:main"

Was the command. It reflected a directory structure launcher/launch.py, where a Fire CLI called main. This worked.

I moved launch.py up, removed the launcher directory, and updated poetry to

[tool.poetry.scripts]
launch = "launch:main"

But poetry run launch throws No file/folder found for package launcher

And again, poetry install/update does nothing.

What cache/meta data/etc do I need to delete to have poetry re-install things? I have also deleted the lock file and get the same behavior when running install.

Answer 1

You most likely have to clear the cache, which you can do with

poetry cache clear --all .
