Is there a handy way to either: 1. Materialize a

resources

target into a directory 2. Make a zip file of a

resources

target ?

this isn't answering the question at all but i would recommend making use of the

deployable_archives

product if there is a task created to do (2)

I was hoping not to write any code 😞 I can make an empty

jvm_binary

which depends on it, which will give me a zip file…

now that's called being a hacker

@average-vr-56795: could extract the

Snapshot

of the resources ?

Does that mean… “Add a flag to filedeps”? 😄

./pants bundle <target>

doesn't do this for resources it might be very reasonable to add that capability?

mm, so you mean "outside of pants" then

Yeah, I was hoping to be able to just run

./pants bundle <target>

or similar… The

jvm_binary

hack is sufficient for my needs, though 🙂

are there any tasks which consume bare

resources()

targets right now (like as target roots)? or are they only consumed as dependencies of other targets?

the answer is no

i spent 5 minutes thinking about how to make a task for `./pants bundle`ing any

Files

subclasses passed as target roots so if that's a need for anyone let me know, but just stashed it for now
