Is there a reason the following is not supported? I want to include every

python_sources

target in a subdirectory as a dependency for a

python_distribution

target.

UnsupportedWildcardError: The address `./xyz::` from the `dependencies` field from the target abc:def ended in a wildcard (`::`), which is not supported.

Yes, it's being opinionated about

import *

being a bad thing generally.

So previously I had everything globbed together in a single

python_sources

target that fed into my

python_distribution

target. However, I want to add

resources

targets for some of these targets. I could use

overrides

and that's the direction I'm going to go but it would be a lot cleaner if I could have the source and resource targets in the same build file.

They always can be in the same BUILD if you're willing to lift the BUILD to the shared ancestor directory of all such files needed, .py and resource.

Would it be possible to use a macro and generate each

python_source

and

resource

target individually and then be able to link the related ones together as part of the macro? Afaik I can't import anything in a build file but maybe there's a way to do this using the

build_file_dir

?

I'm not sure, try it out. I have no clue about the last bit; I'm unfamiliar with

build_file_dir

.
