    Suppose what I make is a library that I expect third-parties to consume by adding it to their classpath… how would I get a jar to upload to my distribution site?

    Since it doesn't have its dependencies, resources, entry point, etc

    So you would annotate the target with a 
    provides
    , and then run 
    ./pants publish

    It will generate the pom and such and publish the individual jar

    As well as its dependencies

    But that will, like, deploy it to an actual repository, right?

    Yeah

    You can deploy it to a local repo as well

    To answer your question more directly: we don't really have a goal that does that

    It would be trivial to write one

    The jar is just hanging out in a product, you could write a task that consumes that product and then just spit the jar straight into 
    dist/

    It just so happens that no users of pants find that particularly useful, so we don't have an upstream goal to do it

    01/28/2016, 12:11 AM
    Uh maybe I'm wrong
  • b

    bored-art-40741

    01/28/2016, 12:11 AM
    Maybe 
    ./pants jar
    does this

    So, this all started with my wish to create a war

    Indeed. I wanted to create a war for, but then I asked myself: hmm! war… what is it good for

    But then I remembered that it's so I can run my code in production 😉

    Okay so, your best bet is going to be modeling bundle create

    You're going to consume 
    runtime_classpath
    , a product

    so I figured I'd create a new, uh, "target type" ? So in a BUILD file I'd have a call to 
    war()
    that would do the needful

    And then you're going to jam your jars wherever they belong, within a subfolder of 
    dist

    01/28/2016, 12:14 AM
    Yup

    I think I'd incorrectly assumed that 
    war()
    would be a task called 
    War
  • b

    bored-art-40741

    01/28/2016, 12:14 AM
    You'll also have a task, like 
    WarCreate
    or something
  • b

    01/28/2016, 12:15 AM
    And it will specifically be looking for 
    war
    targets in the target graph
