Module mapping from pattern? Hello team, I am looking through the Pants code base to see if I can register a

module_pattern_mapping

. Specifically I want to map

prefix-some-library

to

some_library

. It seems there are default module pattern mapping defined in the Python backend and

python_requirements

support custom module mapping. But am I right in that users cannot register custom module pattern mapping?

Hi, I’m not sure what you’re trying to do that https://www.pantsbuild.org/stable/docs/python/overview/third-party-dependencies#use-modules-and-module_mapping-when-the-module-name-is-not-standard doesn’t support?

Hello Benjy, thanks for the reply. Yes... right now I am doing this but basically all my company internal libraries is published with a prefix

mycompany-libary-name

and maps to

import library_name

right now I have a large list specifying all of the module mapping but wanted to make sure that I am not missing a better way of doing things...

Ah, I see, so you want a pattern-based thing

Ah ok... where would I find documentation for that?

For plugins in general, here: https://www.pantsbuild.org/dev/docs/writing-plugins/overview

Ah no worries... I can go through the repo in that case. Thank you!
