#20886 `peek` output for target generators like `python_tests` do not include relevant `goals` Issue created by huonw Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. As of #20331,

peek

now can indicate some goals that apply for some targets (very cool). It looks like this mostly works for single-file targets, not generators like

python_tests

. Those generators are valid sources of some goals (e.g.

test

,

lint

etc.), although not all goals that they're isolated files are valid for (e.g.

run

only works with one file). In https://github.com/pantsbuild/example-python (at 55cf90bc4a1e4ccc47749aa39d299b5dace79adc), running

PANTS_VERSION=2.21.0a0 pants peek --exclude-defaults helloworld/greet:tests helloworld/greet/greeting_test.py

(

--exclude-defaults

just to make this output nicer):

[
  {
    "address": "helloworld/greet:tests",
    "target_type": "python_tests",
    "dependencies": [
      "helloworld/greet/greeting_test.py:tests"
    ],
    "sources": [
      "helloworld/greet/greeting_test.py"
    ],
    "sources_fingerprint": "2158e096d5ab63e537d88067b50a0274b83f6373143faf854d4a9adf5d01cf78"
  },
  {
    "address": "helloworld/greet/greeting_test.py:tests",
    "target_type": "python_test",
    "dependencies": [
      "helloworld/greet/greeting.py:lib"
    ],
    "goals": [
      "run",
      "test"
    ],
    "source_raw": "greeting_test.py",
    "sources": [
      "helloworld/greet/greeting_test.py"
    ],
    "sources_fingerprint": "2158e096d5ab63e537d88067b50a0274b83f6373143faf854d4a9adf5d01cf78"
  }
]

Note that: •

helloworld/greet:tests

has no

goals

key •

helloworld/greet/greeting_test.py:tests

does have one Describe the solution you'd like Include appropriate

goals

output for target generators too, somehow. Describe alternatives you've considered N/A Additional context N/A pantsbuild/pants
