]

Known versions to verify downloads against.

Each element is a pipe-separated string of version|platform|sha256|length or
version|platform|sha256|length|url_override, where:

  • version is the version string
  • platform is one of [linux_arm64,linux_x86_64,macos_arm64,macos_x86_64]
  • sha256 is the 64-character hex representation of the expected sha256
    digest of the download file, as emitted by shasum -a 256
  • length is the expected length of the download file in bytes, as emitted by
    wc -c
  • (Optional) url_override is a specific url to use instead of the normally
    generated url for this version

E.g., 3.1.2|macos_x86_64|6d0f18cd84b918c7b3edd0203e75569e0c7caecb1367bbbe409b44e28514f5be|42813.
and 3.1.2|macos_arm64 |aca5c1da0192e2fd46b7b55ab290a92c5f07309e7b0ebf4e45ba95731ae98291|50926|https://example.mac.org/bin/v3.1.2/mac-aarch64-v3.1.2.tgz.

Values are space-stripped, so pipes can be indented for readability if necessary.


url_template

--shellcheck-url-template=<str>

PANTS_SHELLCHECK_URL_TEMPLATE

default: https://github.com/vscode-shellcheck/shellcheck-binaries/releases/download/{version}/shellcheck-{version}.{platform}.tar.gz

URL to download the tool, either as a single binary file or a compressed file (e.g. zip file). You can change this to point to your own hosted file, e.g. to work with proxies or for access via the filesystem through a file:$abspath URL (e.g. file:/this/is/absolute, possibly by templating the buildroot in a config file).

Use {version} to have the value from --version substituted, and {platform} to have a value from --url-platform-mapping substituted in, depending on the current platform. For example, https://github.com/.../protoc-{version}-{platform}.zip.


url_platform_mapping

--shellcheck-url-platform-mapping="{'key1': val1, 'key2': val2, ...}"

PANTS_SHELLCHECK_URL_PLATFORM_MAPPING

default:
{
  "linux_arm64": "linux.aarch64",
  "linux_x86_64": "linux.x86_64",
  "macos_arm64": "darwin.aarch64",
  "macos_x86_64": "darwin.x86_64"
}

A dictionary mapping platforms to strings to be used when generating the URL to download the tool.

In --url-template, anytime the {platform} string is used, Pants will determine the current platform, and substitute {platform} with the respective value from your dictionary.

For example, if you define {"macos_x86_64": "apple-darwin", "linux_x86_64": "unknown-linux"}, and run Pants on Linux with an intel architecture, then {platform} will be substituted in the --url-template option with unknown-linux.


use_unsupported_version

--shellcheck-use-unsupported-version=<UnsupportedVersionUsage>

PANTS_SHELLCHECK_USE_UNSUPPORTED_VERSION

one of: error, warning
default: error

What action to take in case the requested version of Shellcheck is not supported.

Supported Shellcheck versions: unspecified


config_discovery

--[no-]shellcheck-config-discovery

PANTS_SHELLCHECK_CONFIG_DISCOVERY

default: True

If true, Pants will include all relevant .shellcheckrc and shellcheckrc files during runs. See https://www.mankier.com/1/shellcheck#RC_Files for where these can be located.
