Support local search for http archives With --experimental_repository_cache, bazel has means of avoiding downloading the same archive again. However, this requires bazel to first download it itself, as we make no guarantee about the internal structure of that cache; this, in turn, does not play well in situations where bazel has to cooperate with other tools, e.g., because the bazel build is just one step in a larger package building process. Therefore, add an experimental option allowing to specify directories where the outer process may have placed needed files and make bazel not download them if a file with correct name and hash could be found in one of those directories. In this way, cooperation is possible without patching all entries in the WORSPACE file. Change-Id: I43240b8b59bf8472ec0310661015899e46491236 PiperOrigin-RevId: 185115713
{Fast, Correct} - Choose two
Build and test software of any size, quickly and reliably.
Speed up your builds and tests: Bazel only rebuilds what is necessary. With advanced local and distributed caching, optimized dependency analysis and parallel execution, you get fast and incremental builds.
One tool, multiple languages: Build and test Java, C++, Android, iOS, Go, and a wide variety of other language platforms. Bazel runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Scalable: Bazel helps you scale your organization, codebase, and continuous integration solution. It handles codebases of any size, in multiple repositories or a huge monorepo.
Extensible to your needs: Easily add support for new languages and platforms with Bazel's familiar extension language. Share and re-use language rules written by the growing Bazel community.
