Pants Build System

Pants is a build system for software projects in a variety of languages. It works particularly well for a source code repository that contains many distinct projects.

Friendly documentation: http://www.pantsbuild.org/

We release to PyPI

We use Travis CI to verify the build .

We use Coveralls to monitor test coverage .

Requirements

At a minimum, Pants requires the following to run properly:

• Linux or macOS.
• Python 2.7 or 3.6.
• 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)

Additionally, if you use the JVM backend to work with Java or Scala code (installed by default):

• OpenJDK or Oracle JDK version 7 or greater.
