@witty-crayon-22786 fyi I finished the rewrite. Less dramatic than I expected, mostly just changed the examples

looks great, thanks. i think that introducing file addresses early in https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/targets#target-addresses might make sense, since that’s what folks will see 95% of the time. but not a huge deal.

If your git monorepo is sluggish, a nice fyi https://github.blog/2021-11-10-make-your-monorepo-feel-small-with-gits-sparse-index/

I'll mention reading below to see what the address of generated targets are. It's too nuanced to get into the details that early imo

Trying to upgrade to

2.8.0

and I'm running into some trouble with conftest My conftest would complain about missing module, if I run

./pants test path/to/my/test.py:tests

But when I run the same target in

./pants repl path/to/my/test.py:tests

and import the same missing module, python is able to find the module.

I need to install MMDetection, and one of the ways implies on using the following pip command:

pip install mmcv-full -f <https://download.openmmlab.com/mmcv/dist/cu110/torch1.7.0/index.html>

How can I map the

-f ...

? I'm building a pex file.

The Pants v. Bazel blog post is up. If you feel like giving it some love on social media: • Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/qwumcv/pants_vs_bazel_why_pants_may_be_the_right_choice/ • Twitter: https://twitter.com/pantsbuild/status/1461361753107750928 • HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/newest (search for "Pants" on the page)

Hi folks! A reddit commenter asks "What is the biggest repository that Pants has run on (in terms of number of directories & files)," As an open source project, we don't have registration data that would authoritatively answer that. But anecdata much appreciated. Roughly how big is your repo?

Hi Pants! I’m using

pants run

on a

pex_binary

that runs

gunicorn

and have noticed that Pants doesn’t stop the pex process after I interrupt it with ctrl + c. Has anyone run into something similar in the past? (Am I missing something obvious?)

Is there any way to have pants run tests in the docker images it builds?

"Error storing Digest { hash: Fingerprint<8210e4baffa32e2b7f531d76924f977d15dda07da621707329d3d2bdacd7e886>, size_bytes: 2167569207 }: Input/output error"

Is there something I can do if the pex file is huge?

Is there a way to change the timeout value on the

./pants package

command?

What can I debug this? 😗

Is it possible to build a

resources

out of a

relocated_files

? I've got a folder in

/library/stuff

with files I need in multiple projects. Can I relocate them into those projects with

relocated_files

then turn them into resources that will be packaged (at those new, relocated, paths)

Does pants already have a make goal for Sphinx docs?

There was a thread on

r/programming

a while ago on Slack vs Forums, linking to a blog post: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/qpz8jz/you_should_use_forums_rather_than_slackdiscord_to/ https://www.mooreds.com/wordpress/archives/3451 The blog post suggest forums are better because (filtering to the first two, the other points IMO are less important): • Slack Free plan has limited history, so information is lossy • Google can't index Slack chats However, Reddit comments do highlight that Slack is free and easy and forums don't have an equivalent "free-and-easy" drop-in. I wonder how much support could be lifted from the devs here if Google was able to index the answers y'all provide to questions 🤔 (Obviously there's no silver bullet, and Slack is great for a ton of things. Just food for thought. Maybe there's a slack Q&A bot with fancy AI stuff? Who knows)

Hey yall. Is there a way to get the address of the caller in a macro?

Hey Team, we're running a strange issue setting up a new macos machine with pants:

any ideas why the package cannot be found or a good way to debug this?

Hiring? Feel free to post announcements here. No better place to find engineers who already use Pants in their workflow and embrace developer experience as a priority.

Hi all. Has anyone seen this PEP for a single official lock file format? https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0665/

Is there a reason that filter and list are different goals? It seems like filter is a superset of list functionality?

Has anyone by any chance ran into this stack trace:

All my requirements (

boto

) reside within the

monitor_spot_instances

directory and have a

BUILD

file with

python_requirements()

generated in it

my tests directory contain

python_tests()

also side question, is this not supported anymore:

python_requirements(requirements_relpath="../requirements.txt")

where we could specify the relative path?

The release of Pants 2.8 got covered in InfoQ, including an extended interview with @happy-kitchen-89482 https://www.infoq.com/news/2021/11/pants-build-system-2/ about both Pants and Toolchain.

Hi, I wonder where the pylint output file is stored when running

pants lint

. I notice that pants 2.9.0.dev2 uses pylint 2.11.0+, which supports

--output

option for generating report file. I have that specified as

[pylint].args = "--output=./pylint.report.txt"

in pants.toml. I observe that the output isn't printed on the console but, after the run, I can't find the generated report anywhere under the project root. Maybe I forgot to check somewhere else?

Hello, is there anyone who uses pants version 1.30.x with newest macos monterey? After upgrade I am getting following error while running `./pants --verison`:

Hello just wondering if anybody has a mono-repo with Python and Node.js and can use pants V2 to manage everything. I see a Pants NodeJs plugin for V1 of Pants, but wondering if there was anybody working on something for V2?
