Bazel Support #447

Closed silicon-ninja closed 11 months ago

silicon-ninja commented 11 months ago

Hey i was wondering we can move this project to use bazel ? since all the projects at google use bazel would be easy to compile the code. Thanks.

I think Google should adopt this project or make their own and in the process change it however they see fit.

Right now using any crate provided by this project is as easy as adding a dependency in cargo manifests, so I don't think it matters how the crate is produced.

Thus, job orchestration isn't a problem that needs solving, and if something needs a rewrite than it's the python generator and how it's launched - it keeps breaking over time just because the ecosystem changes in breaking ways :/.

Thanks for your understanding.

i was thinking to raise a PR if you were okay with it sometime.

If bazel replaces make I don't think there is much value as make historically hasn't been a problem in this project.

I also don't think that bazel will make this project more attractive to Google as I think they'd rather rebuild than reuse. So no matter how I try to see it, I'd suggest not to invest time in this.

Thanks for your understanding.
