Updating and adding new dependencies

Add a Go dependency to your code, then:

$ bazel run @io_bazel_rules_go//go -- mod tidy
$ bazel run //:gazelle-update-repos

All generated sources (eg. protobuf stubs) that are usually built by Bazel are invisible to go(mod)-based tooling. To get around this, we place gomod-generated-placeholder.go files in package directories that would otherwise contain generated files. These are ignored by Gazelle (and thus by Bazel builds) but not by go(mod)-based tooling.

Adding a tool dependency

If you want some go-based tool to be built (which isn't depended upon by existing Go code) you'll have to add a synthetic import to //third_party/go/tools.go. Then run go mod tidy and gazelle-update-repos.

Regenerating BUILDfiles

To traverse the monorepo and generate BUILD(.bazel) files for all Go code:

$ bazel run //:gazelle
