Show HN: Uv-pack – Pack a uv environment for later portable (offline) install

https://github.com/davnn/uv-pack
4•davnn•1w ago
I kept running into the same problem: modern Python tooling, but deployments to air-gapped systems are a pain. Even with uv, moving a fully locked environment into a network-isolated machine was no fun.

uv-pack should make this task less frustrating. It bundles a locked uv environment into a single directory that installs fully offline—dependencies, local packages, and optionally a portable Python interpreter. Copy it over, run one script, and you get the exact same environment every time.

Just released, would love some feedback!

Just for the record, "uv environments" are ordinary Python virtual environments, and aside from the "optional portable Python interpreter" they are already contained within a single top-level directory. If just copying that folder wasn't working for you, that's because of absolute paths (in shebangs added to wrapper scripts, in the activation script, and maybe in `pyvenv.cfg` or something like that). Your approach avoids that by giving uv the data required to re-create the environment at the destination. (There have been many tools like this in the past and there's nothing fundamentally wrong with the idea.)

I would say uv provides quite a lot of additional features that can be used in various ways to create plain-old venvs. Note, however that uv-pack can also pack a subset of your uv-monorepo for a specific package (there are still some quirks I have to admit..).

My experience was that it‘s surprisingly painful to „just copy“ a venv and especially a uv-created venv. There are a lot of paths to be modified to get the venv working. Copying a venv felt hacky and wrong, that‘s why I built the tool :)

zahlman•1w ago
For what it's worth, the tooling I'm working (supposedly) on has a design intent of relocatable venvs.

Do you have a link to share? Would be highly interested!
