Hey there, is there any list of open-source actual monorepo using Pants? All I can find is the pants project itself, otherwise I didn't seem to find anything in the doc or on the web other than small sample project with very limited usage demonstration or high level blog post that doesn't share any actual code. Such a list sounds like a very useful guidance tool for newcomers

I introduced Pants to the folks over at llama-index, so looks like they’re using it now. E.g. https://github.com/run-llama/llama_index

I don't have a good response, but this topic has come up a few times before. My thought process is that when we start talking about repos that use Pants well, and which contain complex workflows (build a pex, put it in a container, push to cloud, deploy infra) those are very often proprietary. I have a bunch of repositories that use Pants that are open source, but none that actually showcase those parts. The ones that would - from work and my private infra repo - I can't share for obvious reasons.

There were a few big ones, but what about searching for repos containing pants.toml? https://github.com/search?q=path%3Apants.toml&type=code&query=path%3Apants.toml I've actually never searched for filenames using github search, but could also look for key identifiers in pants code "backend_packages" type of thing We have discussed a page or repo or something containing a list of OSS pants projects, but I just don't think anyone has gotten around to it. StackStorm is another big open one: https://github.com/StackStorm/st2 I've introduced Pants to about 10 companies, but all proprietary source.
@chilly-cricket-5423 if you could be a bit more specific about the shortcomings, or what you're trying to do - we could work on backfilling docs, or sample projects, or point you in a better direction?

not so much shortcoming, but seeing how people manage inter dependencies between sub project, usage of resolve, etc
thanks for the share tho, didn't think about searching for pants.toml duh
