This ruleset provides a Node.js development toolchain and runtime with Bazel. It does not have any rules for using Node.js, such as nodejs_binary. For that, we recommend rules_js.
This repository is maintained by volunteers in the Bazel community. Neither Google, nor the Bazel team, provides support for the code. However, this repository is part of the test suite used to vet new Bazel releases.
We follow semantic versioning. Patch releases have bugfixes, minor releases have new features. Only major releases (1.x, 2.x) have breaking changes. We support LTS releases of Bazel (starting at 4.x), see SUPPORTED_BAZEL_VERSIONS in our /index.bzl for the list we test against.
This branch is the latest release, 6.x.x It has a greatly reduced scope from previous releases, as most of the code was unmaintained. See the 5.x branch for the prior state of the repo.
