shell_source
A single Bourne-based shell script, e.g. a Bash script.
Backend: pants.backend.shell
source
source
type: str
required
A single file that belongs to this target.
Path is relative to the BUILD file's directory, e.g. source='example.ext'
.
dependencies
dependencies
type: Iterable[str] | None
default: None
Addresses to other targets that this target depends on, e.g. ['helloworld/subdir:lib', 'helloworld/main.py:lib', '3rdparty:reqs#django'].
This augments any dependencies inferred by Pants, such as by analyzing your imports. Use ./pants dependencies
or ./pants peek
on this target to get the final result.
See Targets and BUILD files for more about how addresses are formed, including for generated targets. You can also run ./pants list ::
to find all addresses in your project, or ./pants list dir
to find all addresses defined in that directory.
If the target is in the same BUILD file, you can leave off the BUILD file path, e.g. :tgt
instead of helloworld/subdir:tgt
. For generated first-party addresses, use ./
for the file path, e.g. ./main.py:tgt
; for all other generated targets, use :tgt#generated_name
.
You may exclude dependencies by prefixing with !
, e.g. ['!helloworld/subdir:lib', '!./sibling.txt']
. Ignores are intended for false positives with dependency inference; otherwise, simply leave off the dependency from the BUILD file.
description
description
type: str | None
default: None
A human-readable description of the target.
Use ./pants list --documented ::
to see all targets with descriptions.
skip_shellcheck
skip_shellcheck
type: bool
default: False
backend: pants.backend.shell.lint.shellcheck
If true, don't run Shellcheck on this target's code.
skip_shfmt
skip_shfmt
type: bool
default: False
backend: pants.backend.shell.lint.shfmt
If true, don't run shfmt on this target's code.
tags
tags
type: Iterable[str] | None
default: None
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.
