Optionally relax sqlglot / ibis pin via env var for use in SQLMesh #942
Description
python-bigquery-dataframes/setup.py
Line 63 in 0413964
There is very strong synergy between bigframes and https://github.com/TobikoData/sqlmesh
However because of the sqlglot pin and the transitive sqlglot pin in the ibis pin, this library is incompatible with sqlmesh. (sqlmesh is built and maintained by creators of sqlglot and therefore usually has latest pin, and a strict one at that)
Since you are using setup.py, we should be able to use an env var or something similar to have an opt-in way to remove the version constraints on those two deps such that they can be defined by the consumer. We would accept that it opens one up to undefined behavior but by contrast it frees you from needing to constantly update your pins and allows more experimentation and adoption in the community.
You can see an example sqlmesh model using bigframes here https://github.com/TobikoData/sqlmesh/pull/2667/files
