C++ rules

Rules for generating C++ protobuf and gRPC .cc & .h files and libraries using standard Protocol Buffers and gRPC. Libraries are created with the Bazel native cc_library

Rule	Description
cpp_proto_compile	Generates C++ protobuf `.h` & `.cc` artifacts
cpp_grpc_compile	Generates C++ protobuf+gRPC `.h` & `.cc` artifacts
cpp_proto_library	Generates a C++ protobuf library using `cc_library`, with dependencies linked
cpp_grpc_library	Generates a C++ protobuf+gRPC library using `cc_library`, with dependencies linked

`cpp_proto_compile`

Generates C++ protobuf .h & .cc artifacts

Attributes

Name	Type	Mandatory	Default	Description
`protos`	`list<ProtoInfo>`	true	`[]`	List of labels that provide a `ProtoInfo` (such as `rules_proto` `proto_library`)
`options`	`dict<string, list(string)>`	false	`[]`	Extra options to pass to plugins, as a dict of plugin label -> list of strings. The key * can be used exclusively to apply to all plugins
`verbose`	`int`	false	`0`	The verbosity level. Supported values and results are 1: show command, 2: show command and sandbox after running protoc, 3: show command and sandbox before and after running protoc, 4. show env, command, expected outputs and sandbox before and after running protoc
`prefix_path`	`string`	false	``	Path to prefix to the generated files in the output directory
`extra_protoc_args`	`list<string>`	false	`[]`	A list of extra args to pass directly to protoc, not as plugin options
