Feature Request: Windows Support #30

Open UebelAndre opened 2 years ago

UebelAndre commented 2 years ago

This is the tracking issue for what's described in the README: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_perl/blob/2f4f36f454375e678e81e5ca465d4d497c5c02da/README.md#L43-L45

This way folks can subscribe to something in case this functionality gets added.

@UebelAndre it’s worth saying that this repo provides a Windows perl toolchain but it currently doesn’t work with perl_ rules.

Ah, good point. I'll re-open 😅

What is missing to allow the Strawberry Perl toolchain to work with this ruleset?

I’m not quite sure, I’m afraid. I simply tried to run the tests within this repo on Windows and they failed. There is probably a reliance on bash, so MSYS2 would be required on Windows, which isn’t ideal.
