********************* -->
<h1 id="built-in-rules">Built-in rules</h1>
<p>These rules are available without any npm installation, via the <code>WORKSPACE</code> install of the <code>build_bazel_rules_nodejs</code> workspace. This is necessary to bootstrap Bazel to run the package manager to download other rules from NPM.</p>
<h2 id="node_repositories">node_repositories</h2>
<p>To be run in user’s WORKSPACE to install rules_nodejs dependencies.</p>
<p>This rule sets up node, npm, and yarn. The versions of these tools can be specified in one of three ways</p>
<h3 id="simplest-usage">Simplest Usage</h3>
<p>Specify no explicit versions. This will download and use the latest NodeJS &amp; Yarn that were available when the
version of rules_nodejs you’re using was released.
Note that you can skip calling <code>node_repositories</code> in your WORKSPACE file - if you later try to <code>yarn_install</code> or <code>npm_install</code>,
we’ll automatically select this simple usage for you.</p>
<h3 id="forced-versions">Forced version(s)</h3>
<p>You can select the version of NodeJS and/or Yarn to download &amp; use by specifying it when you call node_repositories,
using a value that matches a known version (see the default values)</p>
<h3 id="using-a-custom-version">Using a custom version</h3>
<p>You can pass in a custom list of NodeJS and/or Yarn repositories and URLs for node_resositories to use.</p>
<h4 id="custom-nodejs-versions">Custom NodeJS versions</h4>
<p>To specify custom NodeJS versions, use the <code>node_repositories</code> attribute</p>

<p>A Mac client will try to download node from <code>https://mycorpproxy/mirror/node/v10.10.0/node-v10.10.0-darwin-x64.tar.gz</code>

<h3 id="using-a-local-version">Using a local version</h3>
<p>To avoid downloads, you can check in vendored copies of NodeJS and/or Yarn and set vendored_node and or vendored_yarn
to point to those before calling node_repositories. You can also point to a location where node is installed on your computer,
but we don’t recommend this because it leads to version skew between you, your coworkers, and your Continuous Integration environment.
It also ties your build to a single platform, preventing you from cross-compiling into a Linux docker image on Mac for example.</p>
<p>See the <a href="repositories.html">the repositories documentation</a> for how to use the resulting repositories.</p>
<h3 id="manual-install">Manual install</h3>
<p>You can optionally pass a <code>package_json</code> array to node_repositories. This lets you use Bazel’s version of yarn or npm, yet always run the package manager yourself.
This is an advanced scenario you can use in place of the <code>npm_install</code> or <code>yarn_install</code> rules, but we don’t recommend it, and might remove it in the future.</p>
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="n">load</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">"@build_bazel_rules_nodejs//:index.bzl"</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">"node_repositories"</span><span class="p">)</span>

<p>Running <code>bazel run @nodejs//:yarn_node_repositories</code> in this repo would create <code>/node_modules</code> and <code>/subpkg/node_modules</code>.</p>
<p>Note that the dependency installation scripts will run in each subpackage indicated by the <code>package_json</code> attribute.</p>

If the entry JavaScript file belongs to the same package (as the BUILD file),

<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="n">nodejs_binary</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">"my_binary"</span><span class="p">,</span>

<span class="n">entry_point</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">":file.js"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="p">)</span></code></pre></figure>
You can specify the entry point as a typescript file so long as you also include
the ts_library target in data:
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="n">ts_library</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">"main"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="n">srcs</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="p">[</span><span class="s">"main.ts"</span><span class="p">],</span>

<span class="n">nodejs_binary</span><span class="p">(</span>

<span class="n">entry_point</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">":main.ts"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="p">)</span></code></pre></figure>
The rule will use the corresponding <code>.js</code> output of the ts_library rule as the entry point.
If the entry point target is a rule, it should produce a single JavaScript entry file that will be passed to the nodejs_binary rule.
For example:
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="n">filegroup</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">"entry_file"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="n">srcs</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="p">[</span><span class="s">"main.js"</span><span class="p">],</span>
<span class="p">)</span>
<span class="n">nodejs_binary</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">"my_binary"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="n">entry_point</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">":entry_file"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="p">)</span></code></pre></figure>
The entry_point can also be a label in another workspace:

The npm packages which should be available to <code>require()</code> during

This attribute is DEPRECATED. As of version 0.13.0 the recommended approach
to npm dependencies is to use fine grained npm dependencies which are setup
with the <code>yarn_install</code> or <code>npm_install</code> rules. For example, in targets
that used a <code>//:node_modules</code> filegroup,
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="n">nodejs_binary</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">"my_binary"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="p">...</span>
<span class="n">node_modules</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">"//:node_modules"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="p">)</span></code></pre></figure>
which specifies all files within the <code>//:node_modules</code> filegroup
to be inputs to the <code>my_binary</code>. Using fine grained npm dependencies,
<code>my_binary</code> is defined with only the npm dependencies that are
needed:
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="n">nodejs_binary</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">"my_binary"</span><span class="p">,</span>

<span class="s">"@npm//bar"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="p">...</span>
<span class="p">],</span>
<span class="p">)</span></code></pre></figure>
In this case, only the <code>foo</code> and <code>bar</code> npm packages and their
transitive deps are includes as inputs to the <code>my_binary</code> target
which reduces the time required to setup the runfiles for this
target (see https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/5153).
The @npm external repository and the fine grained npm package
targets are setup using the <code>yarn_install</code> or <code>npm_install</code> rule
in your WORKSPACE file:
yarn_install(
name = "npm",
package_json = "//:package.json",
yarn_lock = "//:yarn.lock",
)
For other rules such as <code>jasmine_node_test</code>, fine grained
npm dependencies are specified in the <code>deps</code> attribute:

1. Subject to predefined source/output path variables substitutions.
The predefined variables <code>execpath</code>, <code>execpaths</code>, <code>rootpath</code>, <code>rootpaths</code>, <code>location</code>, and <code>locations</code> take

See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#predefined_label_variables for more info.
NB: This $(location) substition returns the manifest file path which differs from the *_binary &amp; *_test
args and genrule bazel substitions. This will be fixed in a future major release.
See docs string of <code>expand_location_into_runfiles</code> macro in <code>internal/common/expand_into_runfiles.bzl</code>
for more info.
The recommended approach is to now use <code>$(rootpath)</code> where you previously used $(location).
To get from a <code>$(rootpath)</code> to the absolute path that <code>$$(rlocation $(location))</code> returned you can either use
<code>$$(rlocation $(rootpath))</code> if you are in the <code>templated_args</code> of a <code>nodejs_binary</code> or <code>nodejs_test</code>:
BUILD.bazel:

or if you're in the context of a .js script you can pass the $(rootpath) as an argument to the script
and use the javascript runfiles helper to resolve to the absolute path:

NB: Bazel will error if it sees the single dollar sign $(rlocation path) in <code>templated_args</code> as it will try to
expand <code>$(rlocation)</code> since we now expand predefined &amp; custom "make" variables such as <code>$(COMPILATION_MODE)</code>,
<code>$(BINDIR)</code> &amp; <code>$(TARGET_CPU)</code> using <code>ctx.expand_make_variables</code>. See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html.
To prevent expansion of <code>$(rlocation)</code> write it as <code>$$(rlocation)</code>. Bazel understands <code>$$</code> to be
the string literal <code>$</code> and the expansion results in <code>$(rlocation)</code> being passed as an arg instead
of being expanded. <code>$(rlocation)</code> is then evaluated by the bash node launcher script and it calls
the <code>rlocation</code> function in the runfiles.bash helper. For example, the templated arg
<code>$$(rlocation $(rootpath //:some_file))</code> is expanded by Bazel to <code>$(rlocation ./some_file)</code> which
is then converted in bash to the absolute path of <code>//:some_file</code> in runfiles by the runfiles.bash helper
before being passed as an argument to the program.
NB: nodejs_binary and nodejs_test will preserve the legacy behavior of <code>$(rlocation)</code> so users don't
need to update to <code>$$(rlocation)</code>. This may be changed in the future.
2. Subject to predefined variables &amp; custom variable substitutions.
Predefined "Make" variables such as $(COMPILATION_MODE) and $(TARGET_CPU) are expanded.
See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#predefined_variables.
Custom variables are also expanded including variables set through the Bazel CLI with --define=SOME_VAR=SOME_VALUE.
See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#custom_variables.
Predefined genrule variables are not supported in this context.

<h2 id="nodejs_test">nodejs_test</h2>
<p>Identical to <code>nodejs_binary</code>, except this can be used with <code>bazel test</code> as well.
When the binary returns zero exit code, the test passes; otherwise it fails.</p>
<p><code>nodejs_test</code> is a convenient way to write a novel kind of test based on running
your own test runner. For example, the <code>ts-api-guardian</code> library has a way to
assert the public API of a TypeScript program, and uses <code>nodejs_test</code> here:
https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/master/tools/ts-api-guardian/index.bzl</p>
<p>If you just want to run a standard test using a test runner from npm, use the generated
*_test target created by npm_install/yarn_install, such as <code>mocha_test</code>.
Some test runners like Karma and Jasmine have custom rules with added features, e.g. <code>jasmine_node_test</code>.</p>
<p>Bazel always runs tests with a working directory set to your workspace root.
If your test needs to run in a different directory, you can write a <code>process.chdir</code> helper script
and invoke it before the test with a <code>--require</code> argument, like
<code>templated_args = ["--node_options=--require=./$(rootpath chdir.js)"]</code>.
See rules_nodejs/internal/node/test/chdir for an example.</p>
<p>To debug a Node.js test, we recommend saving a group of flags together in a “config”.
Put this in your <code>tools/bazel.rc</code> so it’s shared with your team:</p>
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="c1"># Enable debugging tests with --config=debug
</span><span class="n">test</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="n">debug</span> <span class="o">--</span><span class="n">test_arg</span><span class="o">=--</span><span class="n">node_options</span><span class="o">=--</span><span class="n">inspect</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">brk</span> <span class="o">--</span><span class="n">test_output</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="n">streamed</span> <span class="o">--</span><span class="n">test_strategy</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="n">exclusive</span> <span class="o">--</span><span class="n">test_timeout</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">9999</span> <span class="o">--</span><span class="n">nocache_test_results</span></code></pre></figure>
<p>Now you can add <code>--config=debug</code> to any <code>bazel test</code> command line.
The runtime will pause before executing the program, allowing you to connect a
remote debugger.</p>

If the entry JavaScript file belongs to the same package (as the BUILD file),

<span class="p">)</span></code></pre></figure>
You can specify the entry point as a typescript file so long as you also include
the ts_library target in data:
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="n">ts_library</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">"main"</span><span class="p">,</span>

<span class="n">entry_point</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">":main.ts"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="p">)</span></code></pre></figure>
The rule will use the corresponding <code>.js</code> output of the ts_library rule as the entry point.
If the entry point target is a rule, it should produce a single JavaScript entry file that will be passed to the nodejs_binary rule.
For example:
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="n">filegroup</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">"entry_file"</span><span class="p">,</span>

expand <code>$(rlocation)</code> since we now expand predefined &amp; custom "make" variables such as <code>$(COMPILATION_MODE)</code>,
<code>$(BINDIR)</code> &amp; <code>$(TARGET_CPU)</code> using <code>ctx.expand_make_variables</code>. See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html.
To prevent expansion of <code>$(rlocation)</code> write it as <code>$$(rlocation)</code>. Bazel understands <code>$$</code> to be
the string literal <code>$</code> and the expansion results in <code>$(rlocation)</code> being passed as an arg instead
of being expanded. <code>$(rlocation)</code> is then evaluated by the bash node launcher script and it calls
the <code>rlocation</code> function in the runfiles.bash helper. For example, the templated arg
<code>$$(rlocation $(rootpath //:some_file))</code> is expanded by Bazel to <code>$(rlocation ./some_file)</code> which
is then converted in bash to the absolute path of <code>//:some_file</code> in runfiles by the runfiles.bash helper
before being passed as an argument to the program.
NB: nodejs_binary and nodejs_test will preserve the legacy behavior of <code>$(rlocation)</code> so users don't
need to update to <code>$$(rlocation)</code>. This may be changed in the future.
2. Subject to predefined variables &amp; custom variable substitutions.
Predefined "Make" variables such as $(COMPILATION_MODE) and $(TARGET_CPU) are expanded.
See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#predefined_variables.
Custom variables are also expanded including variables set through the Bazel CLI with --define=SOME_VAR=SOME_VALUE.
See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#custom_variables.
Predefined genrule variables are not supported in this context.

<h2 id="pkg_npm">pkg_npm</h2>
<p>The pkg_npm rule creates a directory containing a publishable npm artifact.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="n">load</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">"@build_bazel_rules_nodejs//:index.bzl"</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">"pkg_npm"</span><span class="p">)</span>

<span class="p">)</span></code></pre></figure>
<p>You can use a pair of <code>// BEGIN-INTERNAL ... // END-INTERNAL</code> comments to mark regions of files that should be elided during publishing.
For example:</p>
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-javascript" data-lang="javascript"><span class="kd">function</span> <span class="nx">doThing</span><span class="p">()</span> <span class="p">{</span>
<span class="c1">// BEGIN-INTERNAL</span>
<span class="c1">// This is a secret internal-only comment</span>
<span class="nx">doInternalOnlyThing</span><span class="p">();</span>
<span class="c1">// END-INTERNAL</span>
<span class="p">}</span></code></pre></figure>
<p>With the Bazel stamping feature, pkg_npm will replace any placeholder version in your package with the actual version control tag.
See the <a href="https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_nodejs/blob/master/docs/index.md#stamping">stamping documentation</a></p>
<p>Usage:</p>
<p><code>pkg_npm</code> yields three labels. Build the package directory using the default label:</p>
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-sh" data-lang="sh"><span class="nv">$ </span>bazel build :my_package
Target //:my_package up-to-date:
bazel-out/fastbuild/bin/my_package
<span class="nv">$ </span><span class="nb">ls</span> <span class="nt">-R</span> bazel-out/fastbuild/bin/my_package</code></pre></figure>
<p>Dry-run of publishing to npm, calling <code>npm pack</code> (it builds the package first if needed):</p>
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-sh" data-lang="sh"><span class="nv">$ </span>bazel run :my_package.pack
INFO: Running <span class="nb">command </span>line: bazel-out/fastbuild/bin/my_package.pack
my-package-name-1.2.3.tgz
<span class="nv">$ </span><span class="nb">tar</span> <span class="nt">-tzf</span> my-package-name-1.2.3.tgz</code></pre></figure>
<p>Actually publish the package with <code>npm publish</code> (also builds first):</p>
<figure class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-sh" data-lang="sh"><span class="c"># Check login credentials</span>
<span class="nv">$ </span>bazel run @nodejs//:npm_node_repositories <span class="nb">who</span>
<span class="c"># Publishes the package</span>
<span class="nv">$ </span>bazel run :my_package.publish</code></pre></figure>
<p>You can pass arguments to npm by escaping them from Bazel using a double-hyphen, for example:</p>
<p><code>bazel run my_package.publish -- --tag=next</code></p>

<h2 id="npm_package_bin">npm_package_bin</h2>
<p>Run an arbitrary npm package binary (e.g. a program under node_modules/.bin/*) under Bazel.</p>
<p>It must produce outputs. If you just want to run a program with <code>bazel run</code>, use the nodejs_binary rule.</p>
<p>This is like a genrule() except that it runs our launcher script that first
links the node_modules tree before running the program.</p>
<p>Bazel always runs actions with a working directory set to your workspace root.
If your tool needs to run in a different directory, you can write a <code>process.chdir</code> helper script
and invoke it before the action with a <code>--require</code> argument, like
<code>args = ["--node_options=--require=./$(execpath chdir.js)"]</code>
See rules_nodejs/internal/node/test/chdir for an example.</p>

Subject to 'Make variable' substitution. See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html.
1. Predefined source/output path substitions is applied first:
See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#predefined_label_variables.
Use $(execpath) $(execpaths) to expand labels to the execroot (where Bazel runs build actions).
Use $(rootpath) $(rootpaths) to expand labels to the runfiles path that a built binary can use
to find its dependencies.
Since npm_package_bin is used primarily for build actions, in most cases you'll want to
use $(execpath) or $(execpaths) to expand locations.
Using $(location) and $(locations) expansions is not recommended as these are a synonyms
for either $(execpath) or $(rootpath) depending on the context.
2. "Make" variables are expanded second:
Predefined "Make" variables such as $(COMPILATION_MODE) and $(TARGET_CPU) are expanded.
See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#predefined_variables.
Like genrule, you may also use some syntax sugar for locations.
- <code>$@</code>: if you have only one output file, the location of the output
- <code>$(@D)</code>: The output directory. If output_dir=False and there is only one file name in outs, this expands to the directory
containing that file. If there are multiple files, this instead expands to the package's root directory in the genfiles
tree, even if all generated files belong to the same subdirectory! If output_dir=True then this corresponds
to the output directory which is the $(RULEDIR)/{target_name}.
- <code>$(RULEDIR)</code>: the root output directory of the rule, corresponding with its package
(can be used with output_dir=True or False)
See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#predefined_genrule_variables.
Custom variables are also expanded including variables set through the Bazel CLI with --define=SOME_VAR=SOME_VALUE.
See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#custom_variables.

Subject to 'Make variable' substitution. See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html.
1. Subject to predefined source/output path variables substitutions.
The predefined variables <code>execpath</code>, <code>execpaths</code>, <code>rootpath</code>, <code>rootpaths</code>, <code>location</code>, and <code>locations</code> take
label parameters (e.g. <code>$(execpath //foo:bar)</code>) and substitute the file paths denoted by that label.
See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/make-variables.html#predefined_label_variables for more info.
NB: This $(location) substition returns the manifest file path which differs from the *_binary &amp; *_test
args and genrule bazel substitions. This will be fixed in a future major release.
See docs string of <code>expand_location_into_runfiles</code> macro in <code>internal/common/expand_into_runfiles.bzl</code>
for more info.
2. Subject to predefined variables &amp; custom variable substitutions.
Predefined "Make" variables such as $(COMPILATION_MODE) and $(TARGET_CPU) are expanded.

However runfiles has a big performance penalty of creating a symlink forest
with FS API calls for every file in node_modules.
It also causes there to be separate node_modules trees under each binary. This
prevents user-contributed modules passed as deps[] to a particular action from
being found by node module resolver, which expects everything in one tree.</p>
<p>In node, this resolution is done dynamically by assuming a node_modules
tree will exist on disk, so we assume node actions/binary/test executions will
do the same.</p>
