Pre-releases & azure-cli

[geoHeil]

I want to install azure cli

[project]
name = "foo"
version = "1.0.0"
description = "bar"
authors = [{ name = "name", email = "[email protected]" }]
requires-python = "== 3.13"

[tool.pixi.project]
platforms = ["linux-64", "osx-arm64", "osx-64", "win-64", "linux-aarch64"]
channels = ["conda-forge"]

[tool.pixi.environments]
azure = { features = [
  "azure-cli", 
], solve-group = "azure-cli", no-default-feature = false}

[tool.pixi.feature.azure-cli]
platforms = ["osx-arm64"]
[tool.pixi.feature.azure-cli.dependencies]
msal = "~=1.33.0"
[tool.pixi.feature.azure-cli.pypi-dependencies]
# I only want to install this
azure-cli = "~=2.75.0"

# this is just a ton of prereleases

azure-mgmt-sqlvirtualmachine= ">=1.0.0b5"
azure-mgmt-sql= ">=4.0.0b21"

but this fails with:

 failed to resolve pypi dependencies
  ╰─▶ Because azure-cli-core==2.75.0 depends on msal{sys_platform != 'win32'}==1.33.0b1 and msal{sys_platform !=
      'win32'}==1.33.0, we can conclude that azure-cli-core==2.75.0 cannot be used.
      And because azure-cli==2.75.0 depends on azure-cli-core==2.75.0, we can conclude that azure-cli==2.75.0 cannot
      be used.
      And because only azure-cli<=2.75.0 is available and you require azure-cli>=2.75.0, we can conclude that your
      requirements are unsatisfiable.
      
      hint: `azure-cli` was requested with a pre-release marker (e.g., azure-cli>2.75.0,<2.76.dev0), but pre-
      releases weren't enabled (try: `--prerelease=allow`)

On discord I saw https://discord.com/channels/1082332781146800168/1311072167206719538/1311339298963984426

uv seems to have already solved this, I think we can forward this configuration to pixi aswell
https://docs.astral.sh/uv/reference/settings/#prerelease

but so far I could not find any sign of implementation on the pixi side

We've not implemented this into pixi yet. We're open to contributions here.
