Hi all, I have a strange problem. I have a Repo with the following structure:

- ./pants
- src
  - python
    - shared
      - BUILD
      - logging
        - BUILD
        - config.json
    - accounts
      - BUILD
      - api
        - server.py
    - ...

What I want to do is to include the

config.json

into the accounts package to be able to use a shared logging configuration. This is the BUILD file in

src/python/shared/logging

resource(
    name="config",
    source="config.json",
)

This is my

pex_binary

in

src/python/accounts/BUILD

where I want to use the

config.json

pex_binary(
    name="serve",
    restartable=True,
    dependencies=[
        "src/python/shared/logging:config",
        ":sources",
    ],
    entry_point="api/server.py",
    shebang="/usr/bin/env python3",

)

```
If I got it right from documentation I should be able to set the path relative from the source root. In my case I have the `api/server.py` where I’m launching a uvicorn server with the following command:
```if __name__ == "__main__":
    uvicorn.run(
        get_app(),
        host="0.0.0.0",
        port=8000,
        log_config="config.json",
    )

What is the source root in that case? Currently I always get the error

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'config.json'

. Thanks in advance ☀️

You'd (assuming your source root is

src/python

) use

shared/logging/config.json

.

Thanks for your quick repsonse. Unfortunately this doesn’t work. Now I get

NotADirectoryError: [Errno 20] Not a directory: '…/.pants.d/tmpi03th7ds/src/python/accounts/api/server.py/../../shared/logging/config.json'

Ah

pathlib

I suppose is our friend

So my plan is to package and run the pex_binary in a docker container.

Yeah you'll wanna load by path then 🙂

Mhhh, like this snippet?

str(pathlib.PurePath(__file__, "../../shared/logging/config.json").resolve())

Yeah thats one way 🙂

Nice, thanks 🙂

Works 🙂 Thank you very much!

Pass it on ❤️

Hehe thanks 😁
