@witty-crayon-22786 (or anyone) Any thoughts on how challenging https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/12797 would be to pick up? It's blocking a really sweet PEX<->Docker PoC I want to blog about but requires this and another soon-to-be-implemented feature
@ambitious-actor-36781 I see some commits that reference this. Do you need some help getting this to PR?
Also specifically I want to use the
TAG
specified in my
docker_image
instructions
field. So there might also be a docker-centric way of doing this

It's... somewhat challenging. Because the request needs to be filtered to only the relevant subset of the environment variables to avoid invalidating all BUILD files for all env var changes

the soon-to-be implemented-feature is in PR: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/16215

could maybe do it as a
[global]
fixed list of env vars to allow accessing from BUILD files
b
That'd solve my case, because I'd only list
TAG

@bitter-ability-32190 alas. that was from another lifetime. I no longer have anything I did associated with that company

I'm really hoping 2.14 is the release I can remove a lot of my in-repo plugins 😛
Ahh actually I think I'll really need docker plugin support, because I also need to substitute the registyr name as well, which isn't an env var
