what's the specific test being done to detect this?

I think what I needed was the in-memory graph, but it turns out that the existing

repr

of a digest had what I needed

What is the distinction between a

files()

target and a

resources()

target?

We're going to be putting some cycles into profiling, debugging and fixing performance issues, so I've created #performance for related discussion

Hi there! I have been looking for a build system written in (or extensible with) python for a large project with many build targets. Pants looks very promising, but sadly the project I want to use it in has to be developed offline. So I have two questions: 1. Does pants support an offline installation? It seems that the installer needs internet access, and internet access is even listed as a dependency in the Github repo 😞 Using a

pex

base installation looks promising but I couldn't find any documentation saying how to create one. Given that I have an offline pypi server, do I really need anything other than the

pantsbuild.pants

package and its dependencies? 2. Even if I manage to install pants offline, are there any other problems that I might run into later on, being offline? I have experience developing offline, just not with

pants

...

hi Maor

I unfortunately don't know the answer to your first question, as far as I'm aware the installer was written to assume that internet connectivity is available and I don't know what it would take to make it capable of offline operation

once pants is installed large parts of it will work without an active internet connection, but it does use some tools internally (pex is one) that assume an internet connection at one point or another.

it's possible that it's pretty straightforward to configure pex to pull from an offline pypi server (I assume by "offline" you mean on a LAN without an outbound internet connection?)

there will be people online who are more familiar than I am with pex during PST working hours

actually now that I think about it, there are some other tools that pants uses, that ordinarily pants tries to download from thepublic internet, that can be configured to be fetched from a local area network source in pants config

this is the

--binaries-baseurls

option

Thank you Greg! Definitely interested to hear more about the pex options. Is there a better place to ask this question, or is this chat a good platform?

Hi all, I’m experiencing difficulties trying to run tests on

master

. They come from a runtime error in pex. Here is a repro:

Has anyone seen this/know what to do about it?

@enough-analyst-54434 Thanks for the review on the strictness patch. I was wondering what you thought about this comment I’d left in the test cases https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/9287/files#r393829376 If other people have opinions, I’d like to hear them too

I have a feeling the "how to get pants working offline" conversation will be interesting and ongoing, so I've created a channel for it: #offline

Also created #v2node in case anyone is interested in discussing node support in v2.

Hi team

What's the latest version of pants?

Latest stable version.

1.25.0

Correct for stable. The most recent dev release is 1.27.0.dev0

Check out https://www.pantsbuild.org/notes-master.html for the dev release notes

1.26.x is on the way to stable, but is the first release containing

pex==2.0

, and still has some bumps to smooth off.

Could somebody help with

DEPRECATED: Target.compute_injectable_specs() will be removed in version 1.27.0.dev0

How could I fix it?

quick 🤦‍♀️ PR https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/9358

ran into globs on an old patch I’m updating and filed a closed issue for google to pick up https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/9374

The intellij plugin uses --target-spec-file which was removed, fyi https://github.com/pantsbuild/intellij-pants-plugin/issues/509

Hi guys, we had some issue when try to add

confluent_kafka 1.3.0

as our python requirements and build our binary.

./pants binary src/python/::
......

Exception caught: (pex.vendor._vendored.wheel.wheel.install.BadWheelFile)
......
Exception message: No expected hash for file 'confluent_kafka/.dylibs/monitoring-interceptor.dylib'

we tested package by installing it using pip / pipenv and works fine. is there any workaround to avoid the build being blocked here?

https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/9397 — not being able to re-run just one scala test or parameterized test with --test-junit-test has bothered me for quite a while
