Description
Problem: pixi build fails on Windows with the error: the build backend executable 'pixi-build-ros' appears to be missing.
Environment:
- OS: Windows
- Backend: [email protected]
- Pixi: 0.54.1
Reproduction Steps
- Use the following
pixi.tomlconfiguration:
[workspace]
channels = [
"https://prefix.dev/pixi-build-backends",
"https://prefix.dev/robostack-humble",
"https://prefix.dev/conda-forge",
]
platforms = ["linux-64", "win-64"]
preview = ["pixi-build"]
[package.build.backend]
name = "pixi-build-ros"
version = "*"
[package.build.config]
distro = "humble"- Run the following command in the terminal:
pixi build -vError
INFO backend-metadata{source=S:\micro-ros-agent platform=win-64}: pixi_command_dispatcher::command_dispatcher::instantiate_backend: Instantiated backend [email protected], negotiated API version 2
Error: × could not initialize the build-backend
├─▶ × failed to setup communication with the build-backend
│ help: This is often caused by a broken build-backend. Try upgrading or downgrading the
│ build backend.
│
╰─▶ × the build backend executable 'pixi-build-ros' appears to be missing
Expected Behavior
I couldn't find explicit documentation about Windows support for pixi-build-ros. However, I noticed that Windows support is listed as a to-do item in backends/pixi-build-ros/README.md. If Windows is indeed not supported, please update the README to clarify this and avoid confusion.
