Create new config module that is responsible for creating BuildSetting descriptor objects.

Build settings are units of configuration i.e. a key/value pair of a setting (e.g. cpu) and a value (e.g. ppc). A build setting descriptor is used to describe what kind of build setting a skylark rule is (if any at all). The BuildSettingDescriptor implementation of the API describes two facets of the build setting rule: the type of the value and whether or not the setting is settable on the command line.

The methods exposed here will eventually be hooked up to a new parameter in the <code> rule() </code> function. Validation for these restrictions will also happen in a later CL attached to the same bug.

Add a new test config_apis_test for skylark config apis which will be more populated as this work continues.

Bazel

{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.
