Multiple Bazel Project Workspace Generator #19

Open promiseofcake opened 7 years ago

The previous version of the tool appeared to allow one to specify various Bazel projects and a combined WORKSPACE file would be generated. Is that something that we might be able to see with this project as well?

Can you expand on what you mean by "various Bazel projects?" Are these local projects? As far as generating a WORKSPACE file, this is still supported. You simply need to pass --direct-to-ws as an argument.

These would be local projects, so let's say I have projects a and b, right now in order to use b in a we need to manually pull in the dependencies from b into the WORKSPACE file for a. What I am looking for is a way to specify multiple projects and generate that combined WORKSPACE file, however I believe https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/1943 is the correct solution.
