Hi team. I am looking at this documentation https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/python-third-party-dependencies#custom-repositories I have a custom pypi repo that need authentication. how can I config the user name and password for this custom repo?

Would like to bump this. I'm going to have a similar issue in the future.

anyone can help on this?

This isn't available in 2.11, but in Pants 2.12 (an alpha release of which is available now at version 2.12.0a0) you can interpolate environment variables in your config files. So you can, for example, use

http://%(env.USERNAME)s:%(env.PASSWORD)s@my.custom.repo/index

or whatever and set USERNAME/PASSWORD in the Pants process's environment before running it

or set up a

,pants.rc

file where you hardcode the files: https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/options#pantsrc-file

I will add this to the docs at that URL

@happy-kitchen-89482 if I understand correctly, for 2.11 or early, I cannot do it in pants.toml file. in 2.12, we can start using in toml file? in 2.11 or early, I can use this pattern

PANTS_PYTHON_REPOS_INDEXES="...." ./pants

correct, specifically the

env

interpolation is new to 2.12

Updated the docs, thanks for the reminder: https://www.pantsbuild.org/v2.11/docs/python-third-party-dependencies#custom-repositories
