Bazel package building & fetching rules

Bazel rules for packaging and fetching (for Debian and other distribution channels).

Basic rules

Package building rules

  • pkg - Rules for building packages of various types.

Bazel now uses this rule set for packaging its distribution. It still contains a vestigial early version of pkg_tar, but that will be removed in a future Bazel release.

debian specific rules

  • deb_packages - WORKSPACE rule to fetch deb files from Debain style mirror servers

  • update_deb_packages - update the hash and path of files mentioned in deb_packages rules

WARNING: These rules are currently unmaintained and may eventually be dropped or moved to a different project.

The deb_package rules originated in the distroless project as well as discussions about the goal of that project and are intended as a way to retrieve bundled software packages from various places.

The initial scope is currently targeting Debian style distributions, because the Bazel docker rules allow optional deb and tar files to be included in their container images. That work was done in December 2017.
