Builds and bundles a tvOS Application.

ATTRIBUTES

Name	Description	Type	Mandatory	Default
name	A unique name for this target.	Name	required
deps	A list of dependent targets that will be linked into this target's binary(s). Any resources, such as asset catalogs, that are referenced by those targets will also be transitively included in the final bundle(s).	List of labels	optional	[]
resources	A list of resources or files bundled with the bundle. The resources will be stored in the appropriate resources location within the bundle.	List of labels	optional	[]
additional_linker_inputs	A list of input files to be passed to the linker.	List of labels	optional	[]
app_icons	Files that comprise the app icons for the application. Each file must have a containing directory named *..xcassets/*..appiconset and there may be only one such ..appiconset directory in the list.	List of labels	optional	[]
app_intents	List of dependencies implementing the AppIntents protocol.	List of labels	optional	[]
bundle_id	The bundle ID (reverse-DNS path followed by app name) for this target. Only use this attribute if the bundle ID is not intended to be composed through an assigned base bundle ID rule found within signed_capabilities.	String	optional	""
bundle_id_suffix	A string to act as the suffix of the composed bundle ID. If this target's bundle ID is composed from a base bundle ID rule found within signed_capabilities, then this string will be appended to the end of the bundle ID following a "." separator.	String	optional	"_"
bundle_name	The desired name of the bundle (without the extension). If this attribute is not set, then the name of the target will be used instead.	String	optional	""
codesign_inputs	A list of dependencies targets that provide inputs that will be used by codesign (referenced with codesignopts).	List of labels	optional	[]
codesignopts	A list of strings representing extra flags that should be passed to codesign.	List of strings	optional	[]
entitlements	The entitlements file required for device builds of this target. If absent, the default entitlements from the provisioning profile will be used. The following variables are substituted in the entitlements file: $(CFBundleIdentifier) with the bundle ID of the application and $(AppIdentifierPrefix) with the value of the ApplicationIdentifierPrefix key from the target's provisioning profile.	Label	optional	None
entitlements_validation	An entitlements_validation_mode to control the validation of the requested entitlements against the provisioning profile to ensure they are supported.	String	optional	"loose"
executable_name	The desired name of the executable, if the bundle has an executable. If this attribute is not set, then the name of the bundle_name attribute will be used if it is set; if not, then the name of the target will be used instead.	String	optional	""
exported_symbols_lists	A list of targets containing exported symbols lists files for the linker to control symbol resolution. Each file is expected to have a list of global symbol names that will remain as global symbols in the compiled binary owned by this framework. All other global symbols will be treated as if they were marked as __private_extern__ (aka visibility=hidden) and will not be global in the output file. See the man page documentation for ld(1) on macOS for more details.	List of labels	optional	[]
extensions	A list of tvOS extensions to include in the final application bundle.	List of labels	optional	[]
families	A list of device families supported by this rule. At least one must be specified.	List of strings	optional	["tv"]

ipa_post_processor	A tool that edits this target's archive after it is assembled but before it is signed. The tool is invoked with a single command-line argument that denotes the path to a directory containing the unzipped contents of the archive; this target's bundle will be the directory's only contents. Any changes made by the tool must be made in this directory, and the tool's execution must be hermetic given these inputs to ensure that the result can be safely cached.	Label	optional	None
launch_images	Files that comprise the launch images for the application. Each file must have a containing directory named *.xcassets/*.launchimage and there may be only one such .launchimage directory in the list.	List of labels	optional	[]
launch_storyboard	The .storyboard file that should be used as the launch screen for the application. The provided file will be compiled into the appropriate format (.storyboardc) and placed in the root of the final bundle. The generated file will also be registered in the bundle's Info.plist under the key UILaunchStoryboardName.	Label	optional	None
linkopts	A list of strings representing extra flags that should be passed to the linker.	List of strings	optional	[]
locales_to_include	A list of locales to include in the bundle. Only *.lproj directories that are matched will be copied as a part of the build. This value takes precedence (and is preferred) over locales defined using --define "apple.locales_to_include=...".	List of strings	optional	[]
minimum_deployment_os_version	A required string indicating the minimum deployment OS version supported by the target, represented as a dotted version number (for example, "9.0"). This is different from minimum_os_version, which is effective at compile time. Ensure version specific APIs are guarded with available clauses.	String	optional	""
minimum_os_version	A required string indicating the minimum OS version supported by the target, represented as a dotted version number (for example, "9.0").	String	required

primary_app_icon	An optional String to identify the name of the primary app icon when alternate app icons have been provided for the app.	String	optional	""
provisioning_profile	The provisioning profile (.mobileprovision file) to use when creating the bundle. This value is optional for simulator builds as the simulator doesn't fully enforce entitlements, but is required for device builds.	Label	optional	None
settings_bundle	A resource bundle (e.g. apple_bundle_import) target that contains the files that make up the application's settings bundle. These files will be copied into the root of the final application bundle in a directory named Settings.bundle.	Label	optional	None
shared_capabilities	A list of shared apple_capability_set rules to represent the capabilities that a code sign aware Apple bundle rule output should have. These can define the formal prefix for the target's bundle_id and can further be merged with information provided by entitlements, if defined by any capabilities found within the apple_capability_set.	List of labels	optional	[]
stamp	Enable link stamping. Whether to encode build information into the binary. Possible values: * stamp = 1: Stamp the build information into the binary. Stamped binaries are only rebuilt when their dependencies change. Use this if there are tests that depend on the build information. * stamp = 0: Always replace build information by constant values. This gives good build result caching. * stamp = -1: Embedding of build information is controlled by the --[no]stamp flag.	Integer	optional	-1
strings	A list of .strings files, often localizable. These files are converted to binary plists (if they are not already) and placed in the root of the final bundle, unless a file's immediate containing directory is named *.lproj, in which case it will be placed under a directory with the same name in the bundle.	List of labels	optional	[]
version	An apple_bundle_version target that represents the version for this target. See apple_bundle_version.	Label	optional	None

tvos_static_framework

tvos_static_framework(name, deps, resources, hdrs, additional_linker_inputs, avoid_deps,
                      bundle_name, codesign_inputs, codesignopts, exclude_resources, executable_name,

                      strings, umbrella_header, version)

Builds and bundles an tvOS static framework for third-party distribution.

A static framework is bundled like a dynamic framework except that the embedded binary is a static library rather than a dynamic library. It is intended to create distributable static SDKs or artifacts that can be easily imported into other Xcode projects; it is specifically not intended to be used as a dependency of other Bazel targets. For that use case, use the corresponding objc_library targets directly.

Unlike other tvOS bundles, the fat binary in an tvos_static_framework may simultaneously contain simulator and device architectures (that is, you can build a single framework artifact that works for all architectures by specifying --tvos_cpus=x86_64,arm64 when you build).

tvos_static_framework supports Swift, but there are some constraints:

• tvos_static_framework with Swift only works with Xcode 11 and above, since the required Swift functionality for module compatibility is available in Swift 5.1.
• tvos_static_framework only supports a single direct swift_library target that does not depend transitively on any other swift_library targets. The Swift compiler expects a framework to contain a single Swift module, and each swift_library target is its own module by definition.
• tvos_static_framework does not support mixed Objective-C and Swift public interfaces. This means that the umbrella_header and hdrs attributes are unavailable when using swift_library dependencies. You are allowed to depend on objc_library from the main swift_library dependency, but note that only the swift_library's public interface will be available to users of the static framework.

When using Swift, the tvos_static_framework bundles swiftinterface and swiftdocs file for each of the required architectures. It also bundles an umbrella header which is the header generated by the single swift_library target. Finally, it also bundles a module.modulemap file pointing to the umbrella header for Objetive-C module compatibility. This umbrella header and modulemap can be skipped by disabling the swift.no_generated_header feature ( i.e. --features=-swift.no_generated_header).

additional_linker_inputs	A list of input files to be passed to the linker.	List of labels	optional	[]
avoid_deps	A list of library targets on which this framework depends in order to compile, but the transitive closure of which will not be linked into the framework's binary.	List of labels	optional	[]
bundle_name	The desired name of the bundle (without the extension). If this attribute is not set, then the name of the target will be used instead.	String	optional	""
codesign_inputs	A list of dependencies targets that provide inputs that will be used by codesign (referenced with codesignopts).	List of labels	optional	[]
codesignopts	A list of strings representing extra flags that should be passed to codesign.	List of strings	optional	[]
exclude_resources	Indicates whether resources should be excluded from the bundle. This can be used to avoid unnecessarily bundling resources if the static framework is being distributed in a different fashion, such as a Cocoapod.	Boolean	optional	False
executable_name	The desired name of the executable, if the bundle has an executable. If this attribute is not set, then the name of the bundle_name attribute will be used if it is set; if not, then the name of the target will be used instead.	String	optional	""
exported_symbols_lists	A list of targets containing exported symbols lists files for the linker to control symbol resolution. Each file is expected to have a list of global symbol names that will remain as global symbols in the compiled binary owned by this framework. All other global symbols will be treated as if they were marked as __private_extern__ (aka visibility=hidden) and will not be global in the output file. See the man page documentation for ld(1) on macOS for more details.	List of labels	optional	[]
families	A list of device families supported by this rule. At least one must be specified.	List of strings	optional	["tv"]
ipa_post_processor	A tool that edits this target's archive after it is assembled but before it is signed. The tool is invoked with a single command-line argument that denotes the path to a directory containing the unzipped contents of the archive; this target's bundle will be the directory's only contents. Any changes made by the tool must be made in this directory, and the tool's execution must be hermetic given these inputs to ensure that the result can be safely cached.	Label	optional	None
linkopts	A list of strings representing extra flags that should be passed to the linker.	List of strings	optional	[]
minimum_deployment_os_version	A required string indicating the minimum deployment OS version supported by the target, represented as a dotted version number (for example, "9.0"). This is different from minimum_os_version, which is effective at compile time. Ensure version specific APIs are guarded with available clauses.	String	optional	""
minimum_os_version	A required string indicating the minimum OS version supported by the target, represented as a dotted version number (for example, "9.0").	String	required
platform_type	-	String	optional	"tvos"
stamp	Enable link stamping. Whether to encode build information into the binary. Possible values: * stamp = 1: Stamp the build information into the binary. Stamped binaries are only rebuilt when their dependencies change. Use this if there are tests that depend on the build information. * stamp = 0: Always replace build information by constant values. This gives good build result caching. * stamp = -1: Embedding of build information is controlled by the --[no]stamp flag.	Integer	optional	-1
strings	A list of .strings files, often localizable. These files are converted to binary plists (if they are not already) and placed in the root of the final bundle, unless a file's immediate containing directory is named *.lproj, in which case it will be placed under a directory with the same name in the bundle.	List of labels	optional	[]
umbrella_header	An optional single .h file to use as the umbrella header for this framework. Usually, this header will have the same name as this target, so that clients can load the header using the #import <MyFramework/MyFramework.h> format. If this attribute is not specified (the common use case), an umbrella header will be generated under the same name as this target.	Label	optional	None
version	An apple_bundle_version target that represents the version for this target. See apple_bundle_version.	Label	optional	None

tvos_ui_test

tvos_ui_test(name, deps, data, bundle_name, env, minimum_deployment_os_version, minimum_os_version,
             platform_type, runner, test_coverage_manifest, test_filter, test_host,
             test_host_is_bundle_loader)

Builds and bundles a tvOS UI .xctest test bundle. Runs the tests using the provided test runner when invoked with bazel test. When using Tulsi to run tests built with this target, runner will not be used since Xcode is the test runner in that case.

Note: tvOS UI tests are not currently supported in the default test runner.

The following is a list of the tvos_ui_test specific attributes; for a list of the attributes inherited by all test rules, please check the Bazel documentation.

ATTRIBUTES

Name	Description	Type	Mandatory	Default
name	A unique name for this target.	Name	required
deps	-	List of labels	required
data	Files to be made available to the test during its execution.	List of labels	optional	[]
bundle_name	The desired name of the bundle (without the extension). If this attribute is not set, then the name of the target will be used instead.	String	optional	""
env	Dictionary of environment variables that should be set during the test execution. The values of the dictionary are subject to "Make" variable expansion.	Dictionary: String -> String	optional	{}
minimum_deployment_os_version	A required string indicating the minimum deployment OS version supported by the target, represented as a dotted version number (for example, "9.0"). This is different from minimum_os_version, which is effective at compile time. Ensure version specific APIs are guarded with available clauses.	String	optional	""

tvos_unit_test

tvos_unit_test(name, deps, data, bundle_name, env, minimum_deployment_os_version,
               minimum_os_version, platform_type, runner, test_coverage_manifest, test_filter,
               test_host, test_host_is_bundle_loader)

Builds and bundles a tvOS Unit .xctest test bundle. Runs the tests using the provided test runner when invoked with bazel test. When using Tulsi to run tests built with this target, runner will not be used since Xcode is the test runner in that case.

Note: tvOS unit tests are not currently supported in the default test runner.

tvos_unit_test targets can work in two modes: as app or library tests. If the test_host attribute is set to an tvos_application target, the tests will run within that application's context. If no test_host is provided, the tests will run outside the context of a tvOS application. Because of this, certain functionalities might not be present (e.g. UI layout, NSUserDefaults). You can find more information about app and library testing for Apple platforms here.

The following is a list of the tvos_unit_test specific attributes; for a list of the attributes inherited by all test rules, please check the Bazel documentation.
