Is pants going to support uv?

It probably depends on what you mean by "support" For example, https://www.pantsbuild.org/stable/reference/targets/uv_requirements exists for reading deps out of

uv

section. I'm personally keeping an eye on pants generate-lockfiles to use uv for dependency resolution #20679 because that would majorly speed up lockfile generation. To have python binaries also build with

uv

sounds more involved based on this thread https://pantsbuild.slack.com/archives/C046T6T9U/p1731062743444129 The lockfile generation request comes up pretty regularly here... I don't know if the pants devs have any fresh takes on that issue and whether it's a priority

I have been using uv to generate lockfiles and then converting them to pants lockfiles without any issues with this https://pantsbuild.slack.com/archives/C0D7TNJHL/p1740089100262379

I saw that… very cool!

people should use it! it's been working with no issues for us
