Hey Pants Team, is there a place we can see the supported python versions you can write plugins in? Also any github issues for tracking the Python upgrades? 3.7 has reached EOL and I want to be sure we are using patched versions for security.
I see this in scie-pants https://github.com/pantsbuild/scie-pants/blob/4287b6789ba55919697a048f4bfc7682800e04df/pants.toml#L20 not sure if that's the source of truth for which version pants internal supports
c
so yes, you’re in the right place.

awesome thank you!
any idea if there is tracking for 3.10/3.11 support. Been thinking about updating my existing plugins.
c
I’m not sure how the selection process works etc.. but scie pants takes care of providing the python version for pants to use

also will help the pain having to switch my IDE interpreter to develop in the plugin space.
c
no tracking issue I’m aware of yet, no. but with recent changes to how we release and launch pants, an upgrade of the python interpreter has been made significantly more approachable, so is more likely to happen “soon”.

great to hear as a plugin dev I will be looking forward to that release. Definitely will follow the release notes.

@rapid-bird-79300 Not to derail, but do you have any publicly available plugins? 😄
r
Nothing public but I will raise one to extend dependencies in targets when I get down time.

I have a branch with Py 3.11 pushed. Turns out it ain't too bad
