I just tried upgrading to 2.13.0a1 from 2.12.0 and now I need to upgrade my plugins. 🙂 First off, this change feels significant with lots of stuff to wade through: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/15538 AddressSpecs and DescendantAddresses were replaced, but I'm not quite sure with what. Using

SpecsWithoutFileOwners

doesn't sound right, so, what is the new way to do this:

all_expanded_targets = await Get(Targets, AddressSpecs([DescendantAddresses("")]))

Ultimately I need to get a list of all targets in the repo that have my extension's field https://github.com/st2sandbox/st2/blob/pants/pants-plugins/stevedore_extensions/python_dependency_injection.py#L58-L61

Sorry for not providing any answers regarding the specs (they can be a bit confusing) but, Why not just get the

AllTargets

or

AllUnexpandedTargets

? They are root types, so can use them as input params to your

@rule

.

./pants AllTargets --help-advanced

edit: oh, nvm about the help… that type was not registered, so does not show up in help.

oh cool. When was that introduced?

I think

AllTargets

have existed for a long time.

Ah ha. It was introduced in October 2021. I wrote this plugin in May 2021, and then picked it up again last month (ish)

Ah, ok. So long is relative, it turns out 😛

Wait you're doing this while upgrading to 2.12? It should be a 2.13 change. I haven't updated the plugin upgrade guide yet

No. I went to 2.13. I already got to 2.12. Now I'm actually on 2.14.0.dev0 because

__defaults__

is too awesome to pass up.

oh cool!! I really want to stabilize 2.13 soon
