| # Eclipse plugin for [Bazel](http://bazel.io) (**Highly experimental**) |
| |
| e4b is an Eclipse plugin for Bazel. It is really rudimentary. |
| It simply supports creating the classpath from a project and using |
| Bazel for incremental builds.. |
| |
| You can create a new Bazel project with New project > Import Bazel project |
| Then you can select the list of targets you want to build and the list |
| of directories you want to track. |
| |
| It is highly experimental and support is minimal. However, we are happy |
| to accept contribution to make this support grows to a better shape. |
| |
| ## Installation |
| |
| This plugin was tested with Eclipse Mars (4.5) but should also work with Eclipse Neon (4.6). |
| |
| * Start Eclipse |
| * Select "Help" > "Install Software" |
| * Add the update |
| site |
| [http://bazelbuild.github.io/e4b/p2updatesite](http://bazelbuild.github.io/e4b/p2updatesite). |
| * Select "Uncategorized category" > "Eclipse 4 Bazel" |
| |
| ## Using the plugin |
| |
| To import an existing Bazel project or start a new one, go to "New" > "Project..." > "Others". |
