Is there any way to define passthru args in

pants.ini

so that they’re always used with that goal? For example, set

--test-pytest

to always use

-- -s

?

each task usually has a separate option for args

that was removed in 2018 https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/5594/files#diff-a7b8542b7fc492e8432a429b6b254525R113

sounds like it’s time to add it back? although i would love an excuse to expand the compiler_option_sets paradigm (or something) to have a consistent interface for passing args to tasks

I was suggesting to @hundreds-father-404 that we might want a common --passthrough mechanism that we can use with multiple goals

@hundreds-breakfast-49010 we have a common mechanism in a V1 goal to say that it supports passthru, meaning for that goal it is meaningful to add command line args after

--

This feature I’d like is to then have a generic way to specify those passthru args via env vars or

pants.ini

i believe that @enough-analyst-54434 did something to unify passthrough and everything else... but i forgot what it was.

ahh, very cool! https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/7803
