Will zipline 1.3.0 work with more recent versions of its dependencies ?

posted

Hi,

I'm in a very particular position since I have to install zipline and most of its dependencies libraries through .whl files in the python console. This is due to proxy issues with my PC at work. This lead to my question, take zipline 1.3.0 for example which I installed through a .whl file. I found its requirement file here https://github.com/quantopian/zipline/blob/1.3.0/etc/requirements.txt .
The problem is most of the dependencies like scipy, numpy etc are also installed using .whl files so some older versions cannot be found. In the requirement file, I saw for example the requirement for networkx as "networkx==1.9.1". Does this mean that if I have networkx==2.2 on my PC zipline will not work at all ?

Thank you for your help.
