Something like this should do the trick:

from setuptools.sandbox import run_setup

def get_requires(setup_dir, empty_tmpdir):

     run_setup(os.path.join(setup_dir,'setup.py'), ['-e', tmpdir])
     for dist in pkg_resources.find_distributions(tmpdir, True):
         return dist.requires()
     else:
         raise RuntimeError("egg_info didn't work")

That doesn't look like very reliable. It failed with both zc.catalog[1] and pip[2].


[1] error: option -e not recognized
[2] IOError: No such file or directory: 'pip-0.3.1/docs/index.txt'
