"Helpers to expand make variables" load("@bazel_skylib//lib:paths.bzl", _spaths = "paths") def expand_variables(ctx, s, outs = [], attribute_name = "args"): """Expand make variables and substitute like genrule does. Bazel [pre-defined variables](https://bazel.build/reference/be/make-variables#predefined_variables) are expanded however only `$@`, `$(@D)` and `$(RULEDIR)` of [pre-defined genrule variables](https://bazel.build/reference/be/make-variables#predefined_genrule_variables) are supported. This function is the same as ctx.expand_make_variables with the additional genrule-like substitutions of: - `$@`: The output file if it is a single file. Else triggers a build error. - `$(@D)`: The output directory. If there is only one file name in outs, this expands to the directory containing that file. If there is only one directory in outs, this expands to the single output directory. If there are multiple files, this instead expands to the package's root directory in the bin tree, even if all generated files belong to the same subdirectory! - `$(RULEDIR)`: The output directory of the rule, that is, the directory corresponding to the name of the package containing the rule under the bin tree. - `$(BUILD_FILE_PATH)`: ctx.build_file_path - `$(VERSION_FILE)`: ctx.version_file.path - `$(INFO_FILE)`: ctx.info_file.path - `$(TARGET)`: ctx.label - `$(WORKSPACE)`: ctx.workspace_name See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/main/be/general.html#genrule.cmd and https://docs.bazel.build/versions/main/be/make-variables.html#predefined_genrule_variables for more information of how these special variables are expanded.

Used for error reporting.
