This rule is used for building PHP projects with Bazel. There are currently three rules, php_library, php_binary, and php_test.
In order to use php_library, php_binary, and php_test, you must have bazel 0.5.3 or later and add the following to your WORKSPACE file:
rules_php="031e73c02e0d8bfcd06c6e4086cdfc7f3a3061a8" # update this as needed
http_archive(
name = "io_bazel_rules_php",
url = "https://github.com/greggdonovan/rules_php/archive/%s.zip"%rules_php_version,
type = "zip",
strip_prefix= "rules_php-%s" % rules_php_version
)
load("@io_bazel_rules_php//php:php.bzl", "php_repositories")
php_repositories()To use a particular tag, use the tagged number in tag = and omit the commit attribute.
Note that these plugins are still evolving quickly, as is bazel, so you may need to select
the version most appropriate for you.
Then in your BUILD file just add the following so the rules will be available:
load("@io_bazel_rules_php//php:php.bzl", "php_library", "php_binary", "php_test")You may wish to have these rules loaded by default using bazel's prelude. You can add the above to the file tools/build_rules/prelude_bazel in your repo (don't forget to have a, possibly empty, BUILD file there) and then it will be automatically prepended to every BUILD file in the workspace.
