| # Internet Access |
| |
| Bazel has the ability to download repositories from the internet if explicitly |
| requested to do so, or by resolving target dependencies when an external |
| repository where to download them from is set. |
| |
| To avoid surprising behaviours, Kleaf has introduced two build configs to |
| control this access (`--config=internet` and `--config=no_internet`). |
| |
| In a near future, `--config=no_internet` will be set by default, disabling |
| external downloads, except when using |
| [`--use_prebuilt_gki`](download_prebuilt.md#step-2_build-with). |
| |
| Developers will be able to re-enable internet access via `--config=internet`, |
| for example: |
| |
| ```shell |
| tools/bazel build //build/kernel/kleaf:docs --config=internet |
| ``` |
