shell_source
A single Bourne-based shell script, e.g. a Bash script.
Backend: pants.backend.shell
source
strA single file that belongs to this target.
Path is relative to the BUILD file's directory, e.g. source='example.ext'.
dependencies
Iterable[str] | NoneNoneAddresses 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 https://www.pantsbuild.org/v2.10/docs/targets#target-addresses and https://www.pantsbuild.org/v2.10/docs/targets#target-generation 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
str | NoneNoneA human-readable description of the target.
Use ./pants list --documented :: to see all targets with descriptions.
skip_shellcheck
boolFalsepants.backend.shell.lint.shellcheckIf true, don't run Shellcheck on this target's code.
skip_shfmt
boolFalsepants.backend.shell.lint.shfmtIf true, don't run shfmt on this target's code.
tags
Iterable[str] | NoneNoneArbitrary 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.
