python/config_settings/BUILD.bazel
contains build flags that are part of the public API. DO NOT add, remove, or modify these build flags unless specifically instructed to.
bazel query --output=build
can be used to inspect target definitions.
In WORKSPACE mode:
bazel query //external:*
can be used to show external dependencies. Adding --output=build
shows the definition, including version.For bzlmod mode:
bazel mod graph
shows dependencies and their version.bazel mod explain
shows detailed information about a module.bazel mode show_repo
shows detailed information about a repository.Documentation uses Sphinx with the MyST plugin.
When modifying documentation

) in file names instead of underscores (_
).Generated API references can be found by:
bazel build //docs:docs
and inspecting the generated files in bazel-bin/docs/docs/_build/html
When modifying locked/resolved requirements files:
pyproject.toml
or requirements.in
filebazel run <location>:requirements.update
target for that file; the target is in the BUILD.bazel file in the same directory and the requirements.txt file. That will update the locked/resolved requirements.txt file.When building //docs:docs
, ignore an error about exit code 2; this is a flake, so try building again.
