Hey y’all, I put together a Plugin upgrade guide for the 2.0.0rc0 release from last night (not yet announced). https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/plugin-upgrade-guide We also changed our approach to the changelog, and now differentiate between Plugin API changes vs. User API changes: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/blob/master/src/python/pants/notes/2.0.x.rst#200rc0-10112020 Let us know if you have feedback for how to make upgrades smoother with plugins. While we unfortunately can’t yet guarantee API stability, we want to make upgrades as painless as possible.

@calm-ambulance-65371 the first two sections are relevant to you, with

TransitiveTargetsRequest

and specifically using

TransitiveRequestsLite

, because you wrote a codegen plugin. @flat-zoo-31952 the

TransitiveTargetsRequest

part is relevant to you, along with Dependencies-like fields, and possibly

output_path

field @jolly-midnight-72759 I don’t think any of the sections will be relevant for you if you’re using the

repl

plugin hook. If you are doing a new custom goal, though, then

TransitiveTargetsRequest

is relevant.

I'm not actually using

TransitiveTargetsRequest

directly, but

Get(TransitiveTargets, Addresses(...))

and I'm getting message spam

You need to change the

Addresses
