When creating a skylark_library A anywhere downstream, if a bzl file in A loads() any of the bzl libraries in this package, then the bzl files in this package will have to be in deps as a skylark_library. The current public filegroup cannot be used as a dependency of skylark_libraries.
Buildifier 0.12.0 includes initial support for reformatting .bzl files.
- Reformat all the bzl files.
- Expand the travis check to check the .bzl files also.
Even though it's not great to use type checks, they are frequently useful for
checking input types of macros.
Because there is no standard way of checking types, at least 2 types of checks
are used:
- `type(foo) == type([])`
- `type(foo) == "list"`
The first option is not very readable and the second option seem to be relying
on an Bazel implementation detail. Encapsulating type checks into this library
enables consistent and easy to understand type checking without explicitly
relying on implementation details.
* Skylint: Move comment out of docstring.
Is skylint seems more than a single like docstring, it expect a full comment
with Args/Returns/etc.; avoid having to have full docstring but just making
the comment a comment and not part of the docstring.
* Address some skylint issues.
- ctx.file_action -> ctx.actions.write
- Return an empty list of providers rather then an old style empty struct.
* Fix up the skylint warning about depset usage.
* Remove the reassignment of max_bazel_version.
This was flagged by skylint, the reality is _is_at_most() does the parsing
so it shouldn't be parsed before sent on the way.
* Fix up the skylint warning about depset usage.
* Fixup the skylint warning about re-exports.
Just move to the explicit re-export form.
* Fix the fail() call to use the right variable.
skylint flagged this variable as undefined, but it it seems like this
was never right and should have been "key" all along.
* Fixup docstring formatting for skylint.
This version is hash-based (implemented on top of a dictionary) and doesn't suffer the performance problems of the current version. It will eventually replace the old one after a deprecation period.
- Move install into a stand alone script to expand it.
- Support installing the latest bazel release.
- Move the script step into a stand along script to expand it.
- Support doing a build or running buildifier.
- Update the config to:
- Use the latest bazel release and head for tests (won't have
to update the config with each bazel release).
- Add a buildifer test to ensure the files are good.
