uv pip compile support for setup.py and install_requires

[falkben]

It seems that currently uv pip compile only supports pyproject.toml and requirements.in.

Will uv pip compile support setup.py's install_requires? If advertising as a drop in replacement for pip-tools, it might be nice to call it out one way or another.

Hi. This looks like a duplicate of #1624

[falkben]

That issue is for setup.cfg. I was specifically asking about setup.py

👍 It's actually the same underlying problem, so I think it makes sense to merge into that issue.

If anyone have issues with generating requirements.txt from setup.py, try updating uv to the latest version. I did it so and it worked for me. Currently I am using uv version 0.1.31

👍 We added setup.py and setup.cfg support in a recent release.
