## Basic options

<div style="color: purple">

### `imports`

<code>--[no-]scala-infer-imports</code><br> <code>PANTS_SCALA_INFER_IMPORTS</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>True</code></span>

<br>

Infer a target's dependencies by parsing import statements from sources.

</div> <br>

<div style="color: purple">

### `consumed_types`

<code>--[no-]scala-infer-consumed-types</code><br> <code>PANTS_SCALA_INFER_CONSUMED_TYPES</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>True</code></span>

<br>

Infer a target's dependencies by parsing consumed types from sources.

### `package_objects`

<code>--[no-]scala-infer-package-objects</code><br> <code>PANTS_SCALA_INFER_PACKAGE_OBJECTS</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>True</code></span>

<br>

Add dependency on the package object to every target.

### `force_add_siblings_as_dependencies`

<code>--[no-]scala-infer-force-add-siblings-as-dependencies</code><br> <code>PANTS_SCALA_INFER_FORCE_ADD_SIBLINGS_AS_DEPENDENCIES</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>True</code></span>

<br>

If true, add a dependency on all scala_source targets generated by the same scala_sources target generator. If false, the dependencies will only be added if [scala-infer].imports is also set to false.

Setting this option to true reduces the precision of dependency information. That means that you may end up compiling more than is necessary for a particular task, and that compilation will be invalidated more frequently than actually necessary. However, setting to true may be helpful if compilation fails due to missing dependencies.
