Ignore a package from update

[juanfal]

Some packages shouldn't be updated, so for example I do:

pip-review --local --auto --no-cache-dir
pip install --user --break-system-packages emoji==1.6.3 > /dev/null 2>&1
pip cache purge

it would be great to have something like:

pip-review --local --auto --no-cache-dir --ignore emoji
pip cache purge

Thanks!

@juanfal Thanks for the suggestion. pip-review forwards options it doesn't recognize to pip list and/or pip install, so that theoretically means the --exclude option should already work. Could you try that and report back here whether it does what you need?

[juanfal]

Thanks for your answer. Although pip list has the option --exclude, it doesn't work either:

mb17:40:38 ~ % pip-review --local --auto --no-cache-dir --exclude emoji

Usage:   
  /opt/homebrew/opt/python@3.13/bin/python3.13 -m pip install [options] <requirement specifier> [package-index-options] ...
  /opt/homebrew/opt/python@3.13/bin/python3.13 -m pip install [options] -r <requirements file> [package-index-options] ...
  /opt/homebrew/opt/python@3.13/bin/python3.13 -m pip install [options] [-e] <vcs project url> ...
  /opt/homebrew/opt/python@3.13/bin/python3.13 -m pip install [options] [-e] <local project path> ...
  /opt/homebrew/opt/python@3.13/bin/python3.13 -m pip install [options] <archive url/path> ...

no such option: --exclude

Ah, that means exclude is missing from this set:

pip-review/pip_review/__main__.py

Lines 52 to 56 in 6f9779c

	# parameters that pip list supports but not pip install
	LIST_ONLY = {
	'l', 'local', 'path', 'format', 'not-required',
	'exclude-editable', 'include-editable',
	}

the option was probably added to pip list after we last edited that set.

I will accept a pull request that adds the exclude option to the LIST_ONLY set.
