Using PyPy with poetry

How one can use PyPy (preferably pypy3) instead of standard python with poetry?

That is, what should be stored in pyproject.toml? Are other changes necessary as well?

Solution

  • Turns out it is as easy as installing pypy3 (for OS X: brew install pypy3) and typing the following in the project directory:

    poetry env use /usr/local/bin/pypy3

    given that PyPy lays in /usr/local/bin/pypy3.

    Resolving all the dependencies for the new environment might be more tricky, but that's for the different questions.
