bazelbuild/rules_go 0.13.0

on GitHub

New features

• A new repository, @go_googleapis, is declared in go_rules_dependencies(). This downloads github.com/googleapis/googleapis and includes proto_library and go_proto_library rules for everything inside.
  • Note that go_proto_library rules for the Well Known Types are still found in @io_bazel_rules_go//proto/wkt.
  • go_library rules using pre-generated .pb.go files may be found in @com_github_golang_protobuf and @org_golang_google_genproto. These should be used if you want to avoid a build-time dependency on protoc.
  • Gazelle 0.13.0 will resolve dependencies for these from both .go and .proto files depending on the proto mode.
• Support for Go 1.10.3 and 1.9.7.
• go_binary can now build plugins with linkmode = "plugin" (thanks @teh-cmc)
• Several fixes for Windows compatibility (thanks @pmuetschard)
• Several fixes for reproducibility (thanks @siddharthab, @bennyscetbun, @steeve)
• Fixes for platform compatibility (thanks @lubinszARM, @likan999, @siddharthab, @rescrv)
• go_test now accepts goos and goarch attributes (thanks @kerinin).
• The compiler writes go_asm.h when .s files are present.
• go_path can now bundle compiled .a files in pkg directories for its transitive dependencies (thanks @steeve!).
• Code generated in c-archive mode is position independent (thanks @siddharthab).
• race and msan tags are enabled in those modes.
• importmap may now be inherited from embedded libraries.
• .s files may include other .s files.
• restricted_to and compatible_with are now propagated in cgo rules (thanks @iley)

Notes

• Removed deprecated features
  • Removed support for Go 1.8.
  • Removed go_prefix. importpath is now required on libraries. gazelle fix can help you migrate.
  • Removed the definition of go_repository in rules_go. Use the one in @bazel_gazelle//:deps.bzl instead. gazelle fix can help you migrate.
