# 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://pantsbuild.github.io/

We use [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org) to verify the build
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/pantsbuild/pants.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/pantsbuild/pants/branches).

We use [Coveralls](https://coveralls.io) to monitor test coverage
[![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/pantsbuild/pants/badge.png?branch=master)](https://coveralls.io/r/pantsbuild/pants).

# Requirements

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

* Linux or Mac OS X
* Python 2.7.x (the latest stable version of 2.7 is recommended)
* A C compiler, system headers, Python headers (to compile native Python modules)
* OpenJDK 7 or greater, Oracle JDK 6 or greater
* Internet access (so that pants can fully bootstrap itself)
