Hello 🙂 Is there a way to package my code plus all dependencies in a folder or archive? I was looking at the archive target, but as I understood it, its not a package target itself and wont add dependencies. Sadly I cannot use PEX.

do you want to do it with Pants or you are happy to consider other options? 🙂

We already have a quite extensive setup with pants, but outside solutions can also be considered 🙂

I don’t have the whole picture of what you folks have, but you must be familiar with Pants enough, I assume. Are you sure you cannot use PEX? I mean PEX is an archive you can unpack with

tar

— here’s your folder with your code and all dependencies.

Ah cool, yes I also had that thought and I like that you kinda confirm that it might make sense. Thank you 🙂

*unpack with unzip. PEX is a zip file that's also executable

Yep, you can ignore the whole "executable" part of Pex, in which case it's just a zipfile
