Pants Build System

Pants is a scalable build system for monorepos: codebases containing multiple projects, often using multiple programming languages and frameworks, in a single unified code repository.

Some noteworthy features include:

• Explicit dependency modeling.
• Fine-grained invalidation.
• Shared result caching.
• Concurrent execution.
• Remote execution.
• Unified interface for multiple tools and languages.
• Extensibility and customizability via a plugin API.

Documentation: www.pantsbuild.org.

We release to PyPI

We use Travis CI to verify the build .

Requirements

To run Pants, you need:

• Linux or macOS.
• Python 3.6+ discoverable on your PATH.
• A C compiler, system headers, Python headers (to compile native Python modules) and the libffi library and headers (to compile and link modules that use CFFI to access native code).
• Internet access (so that Pants can fully bootstrap itself).
