Configuration

Operating system:
Linux/Ubuntu 22.04

PlatformIO Version (platformio --version):
Tested in 6.0.2 and 6.1.0b1

Description of problem

For some reason, PlatformIO ignores dependency platforms when installing dependencies from library.json from an actual dependency defined in platformio.ini.

My platformio.ini

[platformio]
default_envs = esp32dev

[env:esp32dev]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32dev
framework = arduino
lib_deps = 
	ottowinter/ESPAsyncWebServer-esphome @ ^2.1.0
board_build.f_cpu = 80000000L
monitor_speed = 115200

Library.json of one of the affected libraries

    {
      "owner": "ottowinter",
      "name": "ESPAsyncTCP-esphome",
      "platforms": "espressif8266"
    },
    {
      "owner": "esphome",
      "name": "AsyncTCP-esphome",
      "platforms": "espressif32"
    },
    {
      "name": "Hash",
      "platforms": "espressif8266"
    },
    {
      "name": "ESP8266WiFi",
      "platforms": "espressif8266"
    }
  ]
}

According to PlatformIO docs, PlatformIO should only install dependencies for the given platform. Instead, it appears that it installs all of them regardless on the platform.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new project for the espressif32 platform
2. Copy platformio.ini from the example given above

Actual Results

All library dependencies get installed regardless of the platform.

Expected Results

Only the dependencies for the platform used should be installed

I noticed the same issue, tried adding lib_compat_mode = strict but dependencies for other platforms are still downloaded.

[env:firebeetle32]
platform = espressif32
board = firebeetle32
framework = arduino
lib_compat_mode = strict
lib_deps =
  https://github.com/me-no-dev/ESPAsyncWebServer.git

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <ESPAsyncWebServer.h>

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:
}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
}

Each run of build tries to install Hash but that has a platform of espressif8266 in the library.json dependencies config.

Thanks for the report! Please re-test with pio upgrade --dev. Does it work now as expected?

[alex-code]

Looks good to me 👍

[honzakucera]

Works perfectly. Thank you for the quick fix 👍
