I've managed to make this work, I've used the recommended way to use pants, I do have some questions about it, I'm trying to use v2 engine. 1) ./pants options was removed? 2) [repl] ipython was removed? 3) when trying to ./pants run -> it seems that it opens a screen in fullscrean which makes this "flickery ", 3) how do I make run last verbose and not print other stuff

1) ./pants options was removed?

Ah, this is because we have not yet ported the goal to V2. We’ll make that a priority to port. In the meantime, you can run

./pants --v1 options

. That will temporarily turn back on the V1 implementation 2) Ipython is still supported, only activated differently. There are no longer “tasks” in V2 like

repl.py

and

test.pytest

. Instead, all options live in either the goal or dedicated subsystems like

ipython

and

pytest

. So, in V2, you activate Ipython via

./pants repl --shell='ipython' app.py

(you can either use the file name or its target name) You can set this in `pants.toml`:

[repl]
shell = "ipython"

3) The full screen thing is something we are actively working on to only use part of the screen. In the meantime, feel free to use

--no-v2-ui

if you don’t want to see that. Then you’ll only get what gets permanently logged and won’t see the intermediate work that Pants is doing.

@hundreds-father-404 Thanks for the help!:) I've used [repl] shell="ipython", what does it mean in [run] ?, also what about the other prints when using run? can I remove them?

*Oh, typo, I meant

[repl]

! Sorry

I think that usually I won't want any output but of the program, unless I need some pants verbose to look for errors?
