05/09/2025, 2:25 PMis there a way to continuously stream logs from Docker builds? all I got so far is
Copy code
[docker]
build_verbose = true Copy code
14:17:25.02 [INFO] Starting: Building docker image <image name>elegant-art-7479
05/09/2025, 2:27 PMfrom what I see, a relevant piece of code is here: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/blob/876075026628f875b410282e9be09969dd401d7f/src/python/pants/backend/docker/goals/package_image.py#L463
we'd have to spin up a separate process to pull the logs and print them perhaps

05/09/2025, 2:32 PM(given how Pants invokes docker is the same as how it invokes every other build process, the problem is really one of streaming any process's outputs)

For local builds, we can get away by using Docker Desktop to see the current progress, but not on CI

05/09/2025, 2:55 PMa general question: is there any system of picking up feature requests in a specific order, like based on reactions or another kind of voting? or, if there's a contributor willing to implement it, we're lucky? even more general: is there a roadmap? I see some threads from a few years ago: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/discussions?discussions_q=is%3Aopen+roadmap - was it discontinued?

So people tend to work towards scratching their own itch, or doing things that solve their own problems at companies that have adopted Pants. Sometimes people show up out of the blue with patches. There are also several paid service providers <https://www.pantsbuild.org/spotlight/service-providers>. Among the things maintainers volunteer to do are ~yearly surveys. They are broadly informative, but don't come with any "funding" to do the top-N things or anything like that.
gratitude thank you 1
