hello! In pants 2.7.0 I’m running pants tailor and it.. is adding pex_binary targets to my build files? Is there some way to turn this off

Hello! There is:

[python-setup]
tailor_pex_binary_targets = false

Does it have false positives?

thanks!

Cool, thanks! We have some false positives internally too due to testing. Not relevant to you, but, I want to add a more granular ignore mechanism so you can ignore specific targets and paths

uh we aren’t using pants run right now but I would like to figure out a way to have that be our interface with running the docker images we’re produccing

Double checking if you've seen Pants's new docker support added by @curved-television-6568? https://blog.pantsbuild.org/pants-pex-and-docker/ I know you had developed your own plugin earlier.

running the docker images we’re produccing

Not sure if this is what you literally mean, but FYI Pants 2.8 now allows you to do

./pants run

on a dockerfile

I haven’t looked too deeply into it! I like how we don’t need dockerfiles for our (admittedly simple) usecase but since we don’t have dockerfiles we can’t… run

./pants run

on a dockerfile

@average-australia-85137 you don’t need a dockerfile to get pants run support. If you look at how we’ve implemented it, I think you could apply something similar in your plugin.. https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/blob/main/src/python/pants/backend/docker/goals/run_image.py

oh neat - thanks I’ll look into it for us
