DEVELOPER

Setting up the environment

NOTE: This repo is currently in the transition to the bazel build system. Only bazel developer information is documented here.

The repo uses bazel for building. Best way to run bazel is with bazelisk which will automatically download and execute the right version of bazel.

preferred way

brew install bazelisk

or

npm install -g @bazel/bazelisk

Bazel will invoke NPM and manage all dependencies.

NOTE: Bazel has an outstanding issue which fails to see peerDependencies Use --nocheck_visibility to work around it for now.

Building

bazel build packages/angular --nocheck_visibility

Publishing

bazel run packages/angular:pkg.publish --nocheck_visibility -- --tag=next

Discovering Targets

Sample queries

bazel query 'packages/...' --output label
bazel query @nodejs//...

NPM

Bazel usually takes care of installing npm dependencies etc. So usually, there is no need to do npm install. It is possible to run Bazel`s version of NPM like so:

bazel run @nodejs//:npm install

NOTE: Current working directory location determines which repo you install.
