A plugin for `scalac
`.
Currently only thirdparty plugins are supported. To enable a plugin, define this target type, and set the `artifact=
` field to the address of a `jvm_artifact
` that provides the plugin.
If the `scalac
`-loaded name of the plugin does not match the target's name, additionally set the `plugin_name=
` field.
Backend: <span style="color: purple"><code>pants.backend.experimental.scala</code></span>
## <code>artifact</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>str</code></span> <span style="color: green">required</span>
The address of a `jvm_artifact
` that defines a plugin for `scalac
`.
## <code>description</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>str | None</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
A human-readable description of the target.
Use `./pants list --documented ::
` to see all targets with descriptions.
## <code>plugin_name</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>str | None</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
The name that `scalac
` should use to load the plugin.
If not set, the plugin name defaults to the target name.
## <code>tags</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>Iterable[str] | None</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
Arbitrary strings to describe a target.
For example, you may tag some test targets with 'integration_test' so that you could run `./pants --tag='integration_test' test ::
` to only run on targets with that tag.
