ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'poetry'

[Systemcluster]

Issue description

When installing a dependency that's built using poetry (e.g. flake8-annotations) using Pipenv 2020.4.1b1, pipenv install or pipenv update fail with the error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'poetry'.

Steps to replicate

Assume an environment with Python 3.8 and Pipenv 2020.4.1b1.

Create a Pipfile with the following content:

[[source]]
name = "pypi"
url = "https://pypi.org/simple"
verify_ssl = true

[dev-packages]
flake8 = ">=3.7"
flake8-annotations = ">=2.0"

[packages]

[requires]
python_version = "3.8"

Run pipenv install. The resolver will fail with the above mentioned error message.

(Whether poetry is installed or not does not change this.)

Output of pipenv install --verbose

The current workaround would be to install poetry into your venv. Then do pipenv clean after dependencies are installed

[techalchemy]

this is another one where, on the master branch, I can't reproduce the error in question. Can you please test against master and confirm this is still a problem?

[techalchemy]

As an update-- I am able to reproduce this against the prerelease, but not against master -- I believe this is because pep517 builders will generally produce wheels which means pipenv should generally not need to install the builder itself to parse metadata.

Since I can reproduce this and confirm that it is fixed, I will close this for now -- please reopen it if you find it is not fixed on master

Thanks for reporting this issue and for the reminder that it merits a look!

I created a virtual environment. Then I needed to install Apache Airflow. But the program stopped and reported an error (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'poetry').
The command $ pip install -U poetry helped me solve this problem.
