Python
======
Rules for generating Python protobuf and gRPC ``.py`` files and libraries using standard Protocol Buffers and gRPC or `grpclib <https://github.com/vmagamedov/grpclib>`_. Libraries are created with ``py_library`` from ``rules_python``. To use the fast C++ Protobuf implementation, you can add ``--define=use_fast_cpp_protos=true`` to your build, but this requires you setup the path to your Python headers.
.. note:: If you have proto libraries that produce overlapping import paths, be sure to set ``legacy_create_init=False`` on the top level ``py_binary`` or ``py_test`` to ensure all paths are importable.
