Bazel

When to use Bazel
  • 声明式构建
  • 增量编译
  • Remote Cache 和 Remote Execution
  • Reproduce 构建
  • 多语言多平台复杂构建
  • 大多时候不需要使用 Bazel
警告
When not to use Bazel
  • 所有被依赖的内容都会进行明确定义 - 目录下包含 BUILD.bazel
  • 依赖变化需要重新生成各种 BUILD.bazel
    • 是一种开发负担 - 因此规模不大时不建议使用 Bazel
  • Bazel 会维护自己的缓存
    • 不会使用 go 的全局缓存
    • 不会使用 npm/yarn 的全局缓存
    • 好处: Remote 执行, 跨主机共享
    • 坏处: 磁盘空间, 网络环境
  • Bazel 会维护自己的工具链
    • 每个 WORKSPACE 都会下载 toolchain - 例如 go,node
    • 好处: 确保环境版本
    • 坏处: 占用磁盘空间, 国内环境下载可能有问题
  • Bazel 运行环境复杂 - 如果需要分发给其他人编辑构建的场景不建议使用
    • JDK, Python, coreutils
  • Bazel 启动和分析需要时间 - 如果现行构建时间 < 10m 时不建议使用
注意
  • Bazel 官方构建的不支持 musl
brew install bazel

# 构建
bazel build //:ProjectRunner
# 查看依赖图
bazel query --nohost_deps --noimplicit_deps "deps(//:ProjectRunner)" --output graph | dot -Tpng -o graph.png
imgcat graph.png

# 停止后台服务
bazel shutdown

# Build all
bazel build //...

Notes

  • workspace - 工作空间
    • WORKSPACE, WORKSPACE.bazel 所在目录
  • repository - 仓库
    • @ - root repository - WORKSPACE 所在目录
    • 可定义外部仓库 - external
      • bind, local_repository, new_local_repository
  • package
    • BUILD 所在目录
  • target
    • =files+rules
    • files 分为源文件和生成文件
    • package_group
  • label - 标签
    • target 的名字叫做 label - label 唯一标识 target
    • @myrepo//my/app/main:app_binary
      • @myrepo// - 仓库名字
        • 在 repo 内可忽略,写作 //my/app/main:app_binary
      • my/app/main - un-qualified package name - 包名
        • +repo=fully-qualified package name
        • 在包内可忽略,写作 :app_binaryapp_binary
      • app_binary - un-qualified target name
        • 如果名字与最后部分名字相同,可忽略
          • //my/app/lib:lib = //my/app/lib
  • .bzl - extension
  • be - Bazel BUILD Encyclopedia

Remote Execution

Remote Caching

docker run --rm -it \
-u 1000 \
-v $PWD/cache:/data -p 8080:8080 -p 9092:9092 \
--name bazel-remote-cache buchgr/bazel-remote-cache
curl http://localhost:8080/status

bazel build //src/main:app --remote_cache=http://localhost:9092
# remote asset
bazel build //src/main:app --experimental_remote_downloader=grpc://localhost:9092 --remote_cache=grpc://localhost:9092
remote asset is broken
  • not works with go-sdk #13206
build:cache --remote_download_minimal
build:cache --remote_cache=http://localhost:8080

The remote downloader can only be used in combination with gRPC caching

# from
bazel build //src/main:app --experimental_remote_downloader=grpc://localhost:9090 --remote_cache=http://localhost:9090
# to
bazel build //src/main:app --experimental_remote_downloader=grpc://localhost:9090 --remote_cache=grpc://localhost:9090

Failed to query remote execution capabilities: INTERNAL: http2 exception
