what was the error about again

?

wget

works

Travis has been so flaky recently :(

probably optimizing for profitability 🙂

Until everyone leaves for Circle.ci

possibly dumb question: but am I using the

--exclude-target-regexp

flag wrong?

./pants test --changed-since=master --changed-include-dependees=transitive --exclude-target-regexp=integration_test

The reference says this is supposed to be a global option but it keeps telling me

Exception message: Unrecognized command line flags on scope 'list': --exclude-target-regexp

I've tried adding quotes and what not around the regexp, but it doesn't seem to like it either way

there is an annoying inconsistency as to where global/bootstrap options may be specified

but: when in doubt, specify options that you are not explicitly passing to a goal (

test

in this case) before all of the goals

see https://www.pantsbuild.org/invoking.html#order-of-arguments

the annoying inconsistency may be an avenue for improvement —

--binaries-baseurls

is i believe not addressable on the command line for example? i have a branch that changes cli parsing to allow that but i haven’t spent enough time making sure it allows all the same command lines or whether they’re interpreted the same way (recursive options don’t work yet in that branch). it’s not something where the fix is clear quite yet but it also might be the kind of thing that might just stay iffy until someone takes the time to fix it.

also the above comment of mine is orthogonal to the specific command line issue described earlier actually sorry

follow up possibly dumb question: looks like I will need to not only exclude files, but also only include files based on name. The exclude is fine since

--exclude-target-regexp

is a global option, and works with

test

, but the filters flags are not and only work with the

filter

goal. I suppose I can do this in two steps and put the

filter

inside some backticks and evaluate it, but that is kind of ugly. Any way I can do this in one step?

not currently... there is the

--tag

option, which is global, and can be used this way though.

there is some discussion of "root selection options" on https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/6501... the

filter

goal is related to that discussion

Hmmmm I see.

The larger context of what I'm trying to do right now is trying to move our testing infrastructure to use

changed

instead of running everything, and I've been running into all sorts of problems, so apologize in advance for lots of potentially dumb questions

have you seen https://www.pantsbuild.org/orgs.html#continuous-integration ?

well so I have switched over to using

./pants test --changed-since=master --changed-include-dependees=transitive

and whatever filters I need

but for some engineers, job would just fail for various reasons. Some my fault, some I'm still scratching my head over

e.g. there are some tests that run fine by themselves but when run with other targets generated using the previously mentioned changed + filter lists, they complain about class files missing from the classpath. I had a feeling this might have to do with shading and other things, so I tried changing their names, and sometimes it works but sometimes it doesn't. I've played around with

strict_dep

and

execution_strategy

options but they're still there

that would likely be related to https://www.pantsbuild.org/3rdparty_jvm.html#managing-transitive-dependencies

which is (to a large extent) why the CI explanation contains as many steps as it does... the

minimize

effectively creates "batches" of targets to run independently.

Hmmmm I would have assumed those would be the dependencies being missing, but I'm having the class files of source test files be missing, but hmmm I haven't looked at the minimize part too closely

that could potentially be related to https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/6239

Hmmmm messing with the script on the page instead of writing my own filters, but will take a look at that in a bit

thanks!

@hundreds-father-404: can you take another look at https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/6539 ? now green in travis.

(or remove the blocking review if you don't have time)

thanks!

Hi pants people. I’m just curious at a high level, is it possible at all to get the IDE features working for python? e.g. symbol recognition, goto declaration (command-b in pycharm), and attaching a debugger? I’m nearly certain the answer is no, considering the notes on the site, but it’s worth asking! Thanks.
