Linked GitHub repo and requirements.txt

Thanks Alan,

I’ve managed to get something working on a similar theme, using the personal access token. I’ve found that the syntax

package-name @ git+https://${GITHUB_TOKEN}@github.com/user/package-name.git@main

Has worked when I setup “GITHUB_TOKEN” as an environment variable in render. I would request git credentials being passed to the build container as a feature (if possible?). Think the PAT workaround is okay but does mean one either can’t use pip freeze > requirements.txt to build the requirements file (because of the need to manually fudge it) or need to maintain a personal access token (which seems to be considered bad practice).

Being more of a finance person than a dev is there an example available for how to implement a shell script in a build? Not something I know how to do, but would like to try; also think this maybe needed later in my project where I may want a dependency in conda forge.

Thanks,
David
