Is it possible to force pants to use a wheel when installing a package? Despite there being wheels available for

grpcio-tools

(and them properly showing up in our lock file), it seems

export

causes us to build that from source which takes a really long time.

We know it's this package because tools like

htop

show it taking all the cpu to build from source.

Outside of pants, I can see it using a wheel

Just confirming; are the wheels available compatible with the Python version within pants (and OS)?

For me yes.

Here's it showing that grpcio-tools has a wheel compatible

And same for grpcio for sanity

I can add

--only-binary

to the requirements file, but I suspect pants might not honor that when it comes time to

export

Checking now, though

Even though I added

--only-binary:grpcio-tools:

to requirements.txt, my lock file still says a source package is a valid option 😢

Pants has its own way of configuring `only-binary`: https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/python-third-party-dependencies#only_binary-and-no_binary

Thanks a bunch! I used that and could see the source distribution option removed from the lock file.
