The lockfile in this post actually seems a bit more like a manifest, or at least that it's trying to do both things at once.
I'd expect you'd have human readable file to list your dependencies and versions in a simplistic way, and then a separate machine readable file that locks the versions for reproducibility. As it stands, the example in the article does not look pleasant to write by hand so you'd have to script something yourself.
