Is there any plans to release a kedro light Or a version wit

Question

Is there any plans to release a kedro light Or a version without the project management I really like the package but I have a hard time putting this into production with my conda environments for work because kedro has some heavy requirements like specific `git` versions which I m assuming is for the project management features kedro supplies or `cookiecutter` which needs to be downgraded from the latest anaconda release

Hi John thanks for the question Let me see if I can try help you here If I summarise your question you re asking us if we could release a version of Kedro with fewer dependencies At the moment our list of dependencies is indicated <https github com kedro org kedro blob main dependency requirements txt|here> Are `cookiecutter` and `gitpython` the reasons you are struggling What s causing the issue

To restate my question I see that kedro is planning on making datasets it s own package is there a plan to break the DAG aspect out I find kedros DAG framework to be the most alluring aspect The project management aspect is nice too but I do not have a need for it and it seems to facilitate the need for a lot of extra dependencies

John Melendowski · Answer

When I say DAG framework I mean the `pipeline` `node` and `datacatalogue` objects At work we made a DAG framework and are debating on doing a full replacement with kedro s You all have made a much simpler api that seems more fleshed out than ours

Yetunde · Answer

Ah There is a `conda forge` by < Ahdra Merali> and < Merel> And then to your query around using Kedro without the project template this is possible Kedro is a framework but it s also a library too The and you ll see that the `pipeline` `configloader` `runner` and `i o` data catalog are library components We actually do show how to use Kedro this way in our example and show how to leverage them too You mentioned that you don t want the project template why would that be Do you have your own
