10/31/2023, 3:50 PMI published the code here, any guidance would be greatly appreciated! https://github.com/Peder2911/pants-oras-plugin

10/31/2023, 3:51 PMI think a plugin like this would be relatively straightforward, all I need to do is call the ORAS CLI which publishes stuff as artifacts to an OCI registry. Lots of cool things one could do with metadata and content types as well.

10/31/2023, 4:01 PMoh, nvm, I missed the inheritance there..

10/31/2023, 4:19 PMah, now it clicked. pants publishes packages, so unless your target can be packaged, it won’t be considered for publishing.. i.e. you need to implement the rules to produce a

11/01/2023, 8:05 AMAh, I suspected something like that. Oras lets you publish any kind of file, so I don’t strictly need to “package” anything, but I guess that I would have to create some kind of package abstraction for this to work. Maybe just something wrapping a single file.

11/01/2023, 2:13 PMas Tom hinted at, you don’t need to actually produce anything, it can be an empty dummy package..

11/01/2023, 2:20 PMThanks! Now I am at least able to run hello world code within my rules and so on with publish, so great progress has been made! Thank you to @gorgeous-winter-99296 for excellent help, we talked a bit in scandinavian on PM to figure some things out as well. 🇸🇪🇳🇴

11/01/2023, 2:22 PMWhat I would have loved to have while working to get to this point was clearer documentation and minimal examples. The relationships between all of the things (types) involved in a simple “hello world” no-op run of publish was not at all clear and I had to do a lot of source code diving. I’ll see what I can contribute once I have written this into something useful and shipped.

11/01/2023, 2:24 PMTo me it seems like the graphiness of this system would lend itself to some simple graph representations of what is going on and what needs to be satisfied in order to do things, but the best i managed to do for the publish process was this:

11/01/2023, 2:25 PMYea, very true. Any and all doc contributions (and other things as well, of course) are always most welcome 😄
