Test support for writing Pants plugins.
Project description
Pants is an Apache2 licensed build tool written in Python and Rust.
The latest documentation can be found at pantsbuild.org.
2.15.x Release Series
What's New
Pants 2.15 brings support for several new features:
Environments
Pants now supports alternate execution "environments" for build actions. These "environments" can be explicitly
configured as desired via several new target types (including having multiple environments of the same type).
The new environment field on many targets tells Pants which environment to use for a particular target.
Pants previously supported local execution (which is now configured by the local_environment target type) and
remote execution via the Remote Execution API (which is now configured by the remote_environment target type).
New in Pants 2.15 is support for executing build actions within a Docker container configured via the
docker_environment target type.
See the Environments documentation for more information.
Test Batching
./pants test now supports batching compatible tests together so that they execute in the same process.
This can improve performance of test execution by sharing test environment setup across multiple test files,
but must be balanced against the impact on caching and concurrency.
The Python backend is the first user of the test batching support.
New goal: fix
The fix goal has been added to run tools which generally will perform more invasive changes on your source
files than the fmt goal. The fmt goal remains for tools which merely format code without making
semantic changes.
Backends
Python
Several changes have been made to the Python backend:
- Support for the new Environments feature. Relevant targets now have a new
environmentfield to configure which environment to use for that target. - Batched execution of
pytesttests. - Support for
lcovcoverage format. - Support for
pyrighttypechecking. - Python lockfiles are now represented in the build graph via synthetic targets.
- Upgrades to default version of several tools including coverage and Flake8.
Go
The Go backend received several changes including:
- Basic support for Cgo
- Coverage reports can be generated in HTML and not just the raw data file used by
go tool cover. - Support for the
golangci-lintlinter. - Support for multiple
go_modtargets in same repository. - A new
go-generatecustom goal to rungo generateon any//go:generateinstructions in a package. $GOROOT/binis now prepended toPATHwhen running tests to enable them to easily find thegobinary for the Go toolchain in use.
Note: Due to certain changes in Go v1.20, Pants 2.15.x and earlier Pants versions will not work with Go v1.20 and later releases. Instead, use Pants v2.16.x or later Pants versions to support Go v1.20 and later releases.
New: OpenAPI
The new OpenAPI backend provides support for linting OpenAPI API specifications using the spectral tool
and generating Java code from the OpenAPI specifications.
Enable the pants.backend.experimental.openapi backend for base OpenAPI support,
the pants.backend.experimental.openapi.lint.spectral backend for linting support, and
the pants.backend.experimental.openapi.codegen.java backend for Java code generation support.
Plugin API changes
Several changes were made to the Plugin API including the changes highlighted below. Read the Plugin upgrade guide for a full description of the changes highlighted below (as well as other changes not highlighted here), including how to migrate existing plugins.
Formatters / Linters
The schema used for formatters and linters has been changed in order to allow for formatters and linters which do not require a target on which to operate. See the applicable section of the Plugin upgrade guide for the specific changes.
Batched Tests
The plugin API used by the test goal has been changed significantly to support the explicit batching of tests. See the
applicable section of the Plugin upgrade guide
for the specific changes.
Synthetic Targets
Plugins may now add "synthetic targets" to the build graph to create freestanding targets programmatically. These synthetic targets can also be generator targets in order to further create generated targets. See the plugin documentation for the Synthetic Targets API for more information.
