Hey there! Question about how to use

pants repl

. If I understand correctly, this should let me open an interpreter where I can load the modules defined in my project. If I call it without targets, they are not there, but if I call it like

pants repl ::

, I get stuff like

But this pex had no ProjectName(raw='pytest', normalized='pytest') distributions.

when it tries to figure out the external dependencies. Any extra config I should give it?

Sorry for the trouble. That looks like a subset of the error message. Can you share the full error? It would also help to know more about your configuration: • preferably, a standalone repository or example that we can run to see the same problem • if not, at least share your

pants.toml

Thanks

oh man

Its hard to answer that question without knowing what the error your seeing is and understanding the problem there. For instance, running

pants repl ::

in https://github.com/pantsbuild/example-python seems to work fine, so that's a perfectly fine way to run it in some circumstances, but apparently not yours!

so, I'm able to run it in some parts of the project, but not others 😅 (e.g. if I do

pants repl some_app/::

)
