example-codegen

An example repository to demonstrate codegen support in Pants.

You run Pants goals using the pants launcher binary, which will bootstrap the version of Pants configured for this repo if necessary.

See here for how to install the pants binary.

Refer to these docs for more information:

• Go Protobuf
• Python Protobuf
• Python Thrift

Some commands you can try out:

• pants export-codegen :: - see the generated files.
  • This isn't necessary for Pants to use the generated files, but can be useful when debugging or to generate files for IDEs.
• pants test :: - run all tests
• pants fmt :: - format Protobuf with buf
• pants lint :: - lint Protobuf with buf
• pants dependencies <path/to/file> - see what depends on what

Check out our other example repositories to see other features like packaging binaries.

Note: to try out Go, you must comment out pants_ignore in pants.toml. This is so that non-Go users do not need to have Go installed to run the project.
