Check that most output artifacts are under a directory determined by the repository and package of the rule being analyzed. Currently this directory is PACKAGE for rules in the main repository and external/REPOSITORY_NAME/PACKAGE for rules in other repositories.

This is a plan to fix #293. Ideally, we would simply make it impossible to create artifacts not under that location, but in practice, we cannot do that because some rules do want to do this, mostly those that are already problematic due to shared actions. So the battle plan is to eliminate as many calls to AnalysisEnvironment.getDerivedArtifact() as I possibly can and audit the rest.

Bazel (Alpha)

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two

Bazel is a build tool that builds code quickly and reliably. It is used to build the majority of Google‘s software, and thus it has been designed to handle build problems present in Google’s development environment, including:

  • A massive, shared code repository, in which all software is built from source. Bazel has been built for speed, using both caching and parallelism to achieve this. Bazel is critical to Google's ability to continue to scale its software development practices as the company grows.

  • An emphasis on automated testing and releases. Bazel has been built for correctness and reproducibility, meaning that a build performed on a continuous build machine or in a release pipeline will generate bitwise-identical outputs to those generated on a developer's machine.

  • Language and platform diversity. Bazel's architecture is general enough to support many different programming languages within Google, and can be used to build both client and server software targeting multiple architectures from the same underlying codebase.
