How to run the code locally with Bazel already installed on host

Bazel installation

Install Bazel

Once you have successfully installed Bazel you can run the code using:

bazel run //bookshop_database
bazel run //coronavirus_heatmap -- -o OUTPUT_PATH
bazel run //database_webapp
bazel run //english_thesaurus:english_thesaurus
bazel run //english_thesaurus:english_dictionary
bazel run //financial_data_visualization
bazel run //webcam_motion_detector

Run the code inside a container

You can use my following Docker image to instantiate a container locally with Ubuntu and Bazel already installed:

docker run -it --rm framaxwlad/ubuntu_dev:latest

There you can simply clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/FBorowiec/py_projects.git
cd py_projects/

And use the aforementioned commands to run the program:

bazel run //financial_data_visualization
