Android support in Bazel

Disclaimer

NOTE: This branch contains a development preview of the Starlark implementation of Android rules for Bazel. This code is incomplete and may not function as-is.

Bazel 4.0.0 or newer and the following flags are necessary to use these rules:

--experimental_enable_android_migration_apis
--experimental_google_legacy_api
--incompatible_java_common_parameters
--android_databinding_use_v3_4_args
--experimental_android_databinding_v2

Also, register the Android toolchains in the WORKSPACE file with:

register_toolchains(
  "@build_bazel_rules_android//toolchains/android:android_default_toolchain",
  "@build_bazel_rules_android//toolchains/android_sdk:android_sdk_tools",
)

(Assuming that the Android rules repository in the WORKSPACE file is named build_bazel_rules_android.)

Overview

This repository contains the Starlark implementation of Android rules in Bazel.

The rules are being incrementally converted from their native implementations in the Bazel source tree.

For the list of Android rules, see the Bazel documentation.

Getting Started

To use the new Bazel Android rules, add the following to your WORKSPACE file:

load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")
http_archive(
    name = "build_bazel_rules_android",
    urls = ["https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_android/archive/v0.1.1.zip"],
    sha256 = "cd06d15dd8bb59926e4d65f9003bfc20f9da4b2519985c27e190cddc8b7a7806",
    strip_prefix = "rules_android-0.1.1",
)

Then, in your BUILD files, import and use the rules:

load("@build_bazel_rules_android//rules:rules.bzl", "android_library")
android_library(
    ...
)
