feat(gazelle): Gazelle plugin generates py_proto_library (#3057) Fixes https://github.com/bazel-contrib/rules_python/issues/2994. Please go over this with a fine-toothed comb! This is my first contribution to `rules_python` / the gazelle plugin, and while I've worked in Gazelle before, I'm pretty unfamiliar with the Python plugin's architecture. This adds support in the Gazelle plugin for generating `py_proto_library` rules automatically, if there are any `proto_library` rules detected in a given package. We do this via a new Gazelle directive, `python_generate_proto`, which defaults to `true`, and controls whether these rules are generated. See the tests in `testdata/directive_python_generate_proto` for examples. By default, we source the `py_proto_library` rule from the `@protobuf` repository. I think this the intended long-term home of the rule? Users are expected to use `gazelle:map_kind` to change this if need be. I haven't done anything here to support resolution of imports of `py_proto_library`. I think this is worth landing first, to save folks from having to maintain these by hand. But this should lay the foundation for resolving that in https://github.com/bazel-contrib/rules_python/issues/1703. --------- Co-authored-by: Douglas Thor <dougthor42@users.noreply.github.com>
This repository is the home of the core Python rules -- py_library, py_binary, py_test, py_proto_library, and related symbols that provide the basis for Python support in Bazel. It also contains package installation rules for integrating with PyPI and other indices.
Documentation for rules_python is at https://rules-python.readthedocs.io and in the Bazel Build Encyclopedia.
Examples live in the examples directory.
The core rules are stable. Their implementation is subject to Bazel's backward compatibility policy. This repository aims to follow semantic versioning.
The Bazel community maintains this repository. 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. See How to contribute page for information on our development workflow.
