You configure it in your project's pyproject.toml with arrays of commands, output directories, and artifact patterns (using .gitignore-style syntax), and the plugin executes those commands at build time, then includes the matched artifacts in your final distribution.\n\nIt's useful when your package needs to generate code, compile resources, or produce other files as part of the build process\u2014things that can't be checked into version control or that depend on build-time decisions. The plugin depends on hatchling and pathspec, and requires Python 3.10 or later. It is classified as Beta and has not seen a release in over a year, though the repository remains maintained.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to run build-time scripts and include their artifacts in your distribution. The plugin is straightforward to configure and has no security issues. The aging maintenance status (442 days since last release) is a minor concern for a build tool, but the repository is not archived and remains functional. Install friction is low. Suitable for projects that genuinely need build-time artifact generation."},"id":"hatch-build-scripts","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/hatch-build-scripts","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/hatch-build-scripts.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/hatch-build-scripts/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-05-29","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"hatch_build_scripts","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Dependency injection without the boilerplate."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":221415,"position":9279,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.0.0"}
