Does pants work with dependency automation tools if lockfiles are enabled? I have a pants project setup with a lockfile generated with
pants generate-lockfiles
but renovate PRs only update the requirements.txt file.

We follow-up any
requirements.txt
file change with a corresponding generate-lockfiles if that is what you are asking.

I am more asking in the context of CI when the renovate bot opens PRs. Otherwise, yeah every manual change to requirements.txt should be followed up with regenerating the lockfile. The issue is that because renovate only updates
requirements.txt
, the lockfile no longer matches so PRs don't pass.

I am not familiar with renovate, but we have tools that automatically update dependencies and we just modified them to also update the lockfiles...
i
curious if you ever found a solution for this @rough-book-52790. i'm thinking it might be some kind of callback or something that has to be configured in renovate, but i don't know enough about it to know if this is possible
r
I ended up getting rid of lockfiles
