08/31/2017, 9:26 PMIt should be, yes. The initial example I gave in the pantsbuild repo proves that out. A
target with 1 declaredjar_library
that nets 5+ deps.jar - b

08/31/2017, 9:26 PMoh okay, that sounds good then, thanks! - e

08/31/2017, 9:28 PManother quick question (related to the arbitrary python thing): if I want to have an external "source of truth" for these dependencies that translates to jar_library in a BUILD file, is the pants plugin the best way to do that? - b

08/31/2017, 9:28 PMmy arbitrary python question was if I wanted to write some quick python that called jar_library and pulled the libs and versions from somewhere else 🙂 - b
bright-apartment-76721
08/31/2017, 9:28 PMand stuff that in the BUILD file - b
bright-apartment-76721
08/31/2017, 9:28 PM(which I take it is not the endorsed way to do things) - e

08/31/2017, 9:33 PMIt's not. - e

08/31/2017, 9:33 PMFor this in particular we have "macros" - e
enough-analyst-54434
08/31/2017, 9:33 PMJust a sec for an instructive pointer that uses requirements.txt as the source of truth - e

08/31/2017, 9:35 PMSo that does exactly what you're trying to do, but for python requirements instead of jvm jars - e
enough-analyst-54434
08/31/2017, 9:35 PM...I think anyway, lmk if you have questions - b
bright-apartment-76721
08/31/2017, 9:52 PMmakes sense! I seem to remember you mentioning those to me in the past but it makes sense - b
bright-apartment-76721
08/31/2017, 9:52 PMthis time it sinks in 🙂 - b

08/31/2017, 9:54 PMand I can create a project-specific macro (i.e., in my codebase) like any other plugin? or is the registration process different? - e
enough-analyst-54434
08/31/2017, 10:03 PMNope, same reg process. Only difference in pants.ini config which pants dogfoods - a sec for that example. - e

09/01/2017, 4:54 PM@rough-minister-58256 thank you for your help re: watchman issue! It is resolved for now… we’ll see if it resurfaces - r

09/01/2017, 5:41 PMoh nice - r

09/01/2017, 5:42 PMwhat’d you end up having to do to fix? - g
gorgeous-alligator-94763
09/01/2017, 5:59 PM@rough-minister-58256 it sort of magically fixed itself in a weird roundabout way. I think it was caching a bad copy of watchman, but when I cleared the cache, it caused an SSL error when trying to fetch new binaries because I’m on python 2.7.10. Once my python was updated and I could pull a new watchman binary, it sort of fixed itself. Yesterday we also ran into the rust upgrade, so that was another thing to figure out. - g

09/01/2017, 6:09 PMah cool - r
