Does your `python test` target include anything other than ` py` files

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

`src core tests BUILD` contains ```python sources dependencies= src config src requirements txt periodiq src requirements txt django extensions python tests name= tests0 dependencies= src config ```

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

Nothing other than Python files I think thinking face

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

` pants dependencies src core tests ` ```src config init py src config admin py src config apps py src config asgi py src config gunicorn py src config settings py src config settings production py src config settings staging py src config settings testing py src config urls py src config wsgi py src conftest py test utils src core init py src core models init py src core tests factories init py src requirements dev txt Faker src requirements dev txt factory boy src requirements dev txt pytest src requirements txt django extensions src requirements txt periodiq``` To clarify dependencies

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

Not by default no I was wondering if there was something simple that was writing a file to a tracked target I ve done that by accident before

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

Like a test that is writing to a watched directory

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

More or less yeah it was silly because I was also keeping a Pants eye on some text file for some reason

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

But I would think that if it s not included in the target then it shouldn t cause this

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

I m sure that s not what s happening here The tests in src core tests are basically factories being validated All just like this ``` pytest mark django db def test company complete factory data = CompanyCompleteFactory create batch 5 assert len data == 5```

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

Is `p` an alias Or a wrapper

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

Ah yeah sorry it s an alias `alias p pants ` smile

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

I figured slightly smiling face just checking if it was a wrapper as I ve seen before Actually one thing I honestly don t know about is the behaviour any different when using the directory convention vs target ` pants test src core tests ` vs something like ` pants test src core ` I assume not but I can t remember having tested it before

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

``` p test src core tests tests0 14 05 12 26 INFO Completed Run Pytest src core tests test feedback py tests0 succeeded 14 05 25 86 INFO Filesystem changed during run retrying `Test` in 500ms 14 05 26 84 INFO Filesystem changed during run retrying `Test` in 500ms 11 65s Run Pytest for src core tests test study py tests0 11 65s Run Pytest for src core tests test companies py tests0 11 65s Run Pytest for src core tests test tenant py tests0``` I think it renders the same results

Which version of pants

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

Funny thing is that it happens randomly that pants tells me that my Filesystem changed `2 13 0`

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

I m on a M1 processor if that makes any difference to pants or the implementation in rust

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

Hmm that d have to be a question for someone else with an M1 typically that line means that one of your watched files has changed but that doesn t seem like it should happen here

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

I m gonna reboot and try with a fresh env

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

When in doubt reboot slightly smiling face Good luck And maybe someone more knowledgeable can help when they come online

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

No luck unfortunately with the reboot smile

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

` pants d pants log` usually has a log line pertaining to the file which inotify has told pants has changed

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

Also it s any file in Pants purview that could change not just the ones relevant for the goal

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

taken from ` pants d pants log` ```14 19 46 60 INFO handling request ` pants bin name= lt projectfolder gt pants pants version=2 13 0 test src core tests tests0` 14 20 04 93 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for git FETCH HEAD git 14 20 04 93 INFO notify invalidation cleared 1 and dirtied 1381 nodes for git git FETCH HEAD 14 20 05 88 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for git FETCH HEAD 14 20 05 88 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for git FETCH HEAD 14 20 05 93 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for git objects git objects maintenance lock 14 20 05 93 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for git objects git objects maintenance lock 14 20 05 93 INFO notify invalidation cleared 1 and dirtied 1381 nodes for git objects maintenance lock git objects 14 20 05 93 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for git objects git objects maintenance lock ``` thinking face

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

So pants is watching your git directory Have you twiddled with the settings for ignores

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

These are in the ` gitignore` root ``` Pants workspace files pants d dist pids pants workdir file lock ```

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

I m using which seems to be messing with the git maintenance thinking face But why is that important to pants I understand that pants is watching files but I didn t think it would be watching the git tree when I m telling it to run a specific collection of files in a test goal For me running a run Command triggering a file watcher seems like unexpected behavior to me What s the idea behind this In any case Thank you very much < bitter ability 32190> for clarifying Stopping lazygit solves the issue for now As most of my devs are running it though this isn t optimal

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

Whoa Pants watches ` git` for changes

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

exploding head

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

Admittedly I think I m also surprised that `lazygit` is modifying stuff in the git folder at that frequency

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

I think that s due to the fact that lazygit renders changes based on the git object tree

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

A simple `git status` while pants command is running is triggering the file changed event handler btw sweat smile

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

Pants watches anything unless configured otherwise The default ignores includes git though

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

< strong toothbrush 37759> what s your `pants ignore`

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

Thanks again I have indeed changed the `pants ignore` variable

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

It should be excluding all dot files and dirs by defaukt

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

You can do `pants ignore add = `

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

gt It should be excluding all dot files and dirs by defaukt Thanks for pointing out this default I was just going through an existential crisis

happy-kitchen-89482 · Answer

Pants doesn t watch git by default it should only be watching your own source files for changes

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

So just to be clear this should avoid matching all Markdown files So when I edit a markdown file with this setting pants should not reevaludate ```pants ignore add = md ```

happy-kitchen-89482 · Answer

Thanks to `pants ignore` s defaults

happy-kitchen-89482 · Answer

Correct

happy-kitchen-89482 · Answer

That will add to the defaults

happy-kitchen-89482 · Answer

Were you `pants ignore = ` before That is a common gotcha alas

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

Yes I was using it without ` add` before Unfortunately it does not do what it is told smile My ignores ```pants ignore add = apps src bin src docker frontend python idea md ``` I m starting a test changing a Markdown file and the test restarts ```15 21 26 37 INFO handling request ` pants bin name= Users vader dev sntls osiris pants pants version=2 13 0 test src core ` 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 1 and dirtied 6069 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 29 62 INFO notify invalidation cleared 0 and dirtied 0 nodes for pants TODOS md~ 15 21 31 21 INFO request completed ` pants bin name= Users vader dev sntls osiris pants pants version=2 13 0 test src core ````

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

I ve seen `pants ignore = ` type of configuration error in a few other places it s a very common problem in some subsystems too

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

< strong toothbrush 37759> Does that need to be a recursive glob ` md`

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

Sorry

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

` md `

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

The markdown file is in the root folder according to the pants docs it should align to gitignore which it does

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

I don t think the trailing tilde is picked up

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

The trailing tilde is not in the filename

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

Looks like a temp file ` pants TODOS md~ `

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

I m saving it using Sublime Text which I think does not generate temporary files for saving

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

Oh shoot it is a temporary file face palm

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

temp file or maybe a lock file slightly smiling face

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

Ok using `pants ignore add` solves my issue thanks everyone clap

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

Actually this is an interesting case because my global gitignore has ``` ~ DS Store``` But those wouldn t be picked up it seems by a default `pants ignore` or the `pants ignore use gitignore`

happy-kitchen-89482 · Answer

The gotcha of overriding defaults by accident is unfortunate not sure how to best address it

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

We can and probably should just nudge people in the right direction in the help string

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

gt You likely don t want to set this directly but use Pants lt https www pantsbuild org docs options addremove semantics gt |add remove semantics gt for list options E g `pants ignore add = `

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

Would be nice when we can get help strings in IDEs in the toml

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

Which is under the hood of <https marketplace visualstudio com items itemName=tamasfe even better toml>

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

I ll add that to my TODO of the Pants config LSP

wide-midnight-78598 · Answer

I think VSCode is working towards adding toml similar to json

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

TypeScript is using JSON files for this purpose Most Editors implement a function where you can just add a $schema field and a link you get all possible options Example `tsconfig json` ``` $schema <https json schemastore org tsconfig> compilerOptions esModuleInterop true jsx react jsx exclude node modules ``` You get autocomplete for free in most of the editors Does something similar exist for toml thinking face

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

That s what I linked above A Rust implementation of a TOML toolkit with schema support and an LSP and a VS Code extension using said toolkit s LSP

strong-toothbrush-37759 · Answer

Nothing I can support as a PyCharm Sublime TextMate user smile stuck out tongue

bitter-ability-32190 · Answer

See if there s an extension using that Rust toolkit s LSP LSP is editor agnostic
