Please Plugins

Plugins are a way to extend Please with build rules for additional languages or technologies. The quickest way to get started is by running plz init plugin [go|python|java]. The full list of available plugins can be found here.

Plugins are configured in your .plzconfig file. For example, to load the python plugin, add the following to your .plzconfig file:

    
    
    [Plugin "python"]
    Target = //plugins:python
    DefaultInterpreter = python3 # Optional config

Where Target = //plugins:python is the plugin_repo() target for your plugin. For example:


    
    plugin_repo(
        name = "python",
        revision = "v0.1.0",
    )

There are some first-class plugins that are supported and maintained by the Please team. These are listed below.

c_embed_binary


    c_embed_binary(name, src, deps, visibility, test_only)

Build rule to embed an arbitrary binary file into a C library.

You can depend on the output of this as though it were a c_library rule.
There are five functions available to access the data once compiled, all of which are
prefixed with the file's basename:
filename_start(): returns a const char* pointing to the beginning of the data.
filename_end(): returns a const char* pointing to the end of the data.
filename_size(): returns the length of the data in bytes.
filename_start_nc(): returns a char* pointing to the beginning of the data.
This is a convenience wrapper using const_cast, you should not
mutate the contents of the returned pointer.
filename_end_nc(): returns a char* pointing to the end of the data.
Again, don't mutate the contents of the pointer.
You don't own the contents of any of these pointers so don't try to delete them :)

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	filename_start(): returns a const char* pointing to the beginning of the data. filename_end(): returns a const char* pointing to the end of the data. filename_size(): returns the length of the data in bytes. filename_start_nc(): returns a char* pointing to the beginning of the data. This is a convenience wrapper using const_cast, you should not mutate the contents of the returned pointer. filename_end_nc(): returns a char* pointing to the end of the data. Again, don't mutate the contents of the pointer. You don't own the contents of any of these pointers so don't try to delete them :) Args:

Go rules

cgo_library


    cgo_library(name, srcs, resources, go_srcs, c_srcs, hdrs, package, compiler_flags, linker_flags, pkg_config, subdir, deps, visibility, test_only, import_path)

Generates a Go library which can be reused by other rules.

Note that by its nature this is something of a hybrid of Go and C rules. It can depend
on C / C++ rules, given the limitations of cgo (i.e. you will have to interact with them
through a C interface, although the objects themselves can contain C++). As mentioned
below, you will likely be better off wrapping your dependencies into a cc_static_library
rule and depending on that rather than depending directly on cc_library rules.

Note also that this does not honour Go's syntactic comments; you have to explicitly
specify which Go files are cgo vs. which are not, as well as C headers & sources and
any required cflags or ldflags.

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule.
srcs		list	Go source files to compile that have 'import "C"' declarations in them.
resources		list	Files to embed in the library using //go:embed directives.
go_srcs		list	Any Go source files that do not have 'import "C"' declarations.
c_srcs		list	Any C source files to include.
hdrs		list	Any C header files to include.
package		str
compiler_flags		list	List of compiler flags to be passed when compiling the C code.
linker_flags		list	List of linker flags to be passed when linking a Go binary.
pkg_config		list	List of packages to pass to pkg-config.
subdir		str	Subdirectory that source files are in. Required if they're not in the current directory.
deps		list	Dependencies. Note that if you intend to depend on cc_library rules, you will likely be better off wrapping them into a cc_static_library and depending on that.
visibility		list	Visibility specification
test_only		bool	If True, is only visible to test rules.
import_path		str	If set, this will override the import path of the generated go package.

cgo_test


    cgo_test(name, srcs, data, deps, visibility, flags, sandbox, timeout, flaky, test_outputs, labels, size, static)

Defines a Go test rule over a cgo_library.

If the library you are testing is a cgo_library, you must use this instead of go_test.
It's ok to depend on a cgo_library though as long as it's not the same package
as your test; in that (any any other case of testing a go_library) you must use go_test.

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule.
srcs	yes	list	Go source files to compile.
data		list	Runtime data files for the test.
deps		list	Dependencies
visibility		list	Visibility specification
flags		str	Flags to apply to the test invocation.
sandbox		bool	Sandbox the test on Linux to restrict access to namespaces such as network.
timeout		int	Timeout in seconds to allow the test to run for.
flaky		bool or int	True to mark the test as flaky, or an integer to specify how many reruns.
test_outputs		list	Extra test output files to generate from this test.
labels		list	Labels for this rule.
size		str	Test size (enormous, large, medium or small).
static		bool	If True, passes flags to the linker to try to force fully static linking. (specifically `-linkmode external -extldflags static`). Typically this increases size & link time a little but in return the binary has absolutely no external dependencies. It may not be easy to make cgo tests work when linked statically; depending on your toolchain it may not be possible or may fail.

go_benchmark


    go_benchmark(name, srcs, resources, data, deps, visibility, sandbox, cgo, filter_srcs, external, timeout, labels, static, definitions, test_only)

Defines a Go test suite that will be run as a benchmark.

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule.
srcs	yes	list	Go source files to compile.

cgo		bool	True if this test depends on a cgo_library.
filter_srcs		bool	If True, filters source files through Go's standard build constraints.
external		bool	True if this test is external to the library it's testing, i.e. it uses the feature of Go that allows it to be in the same directory with a _test suffix.
timeout		int	Timeout in seconds to allow the test to run for.
labels		list	Labels for this rule.
static		bool	If True, passes flags to the linker to try to force fully static linking. (specifically `-linkmode external -extldflags static`). Typically this increases size & link time a little but in return the binary has absolutely no external dependencies. Note that it may have negative consequences if the binary contains any cgo (including net/http DNS lookup code potentially).
definitions		str or list or dict	If set to a string, defines importpath.name=value when calling the Go linker. If set to a list, pass each value as a definition to the linker. If set to a dict, each key/value pair is used to contruct the list of definitions passed to the linker.
test_only			If True, is only visible to test rules.

go_binary


    go_binary(name, srcs, resources, asm_srcs, out, deps, data, visibility, labels, test_only, static, filter_srcs, definitions, stamp, strip)

Compiles a Go binary.

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule.
srcs		list	Go source files, one of which contains the main function.

static		bool	If True, passes flags to the linker to try to force fully static linking. (specifically `-linkmode external -extldflags static`). Typically this increases size & link time a little but in return the binary has absolutely no external dependencies. Note that it may have negative consequences if the binary contains any cgo (including net/http DNS lookup code potentially).
filter_srcs		bool	If True, filters source files through Go's standard build constraints.
definitions		str or list or dict	If set to a string, defines importpath.name=value when calling the Go linker. If set to a list, pass each value as a definition to the linker. If set to a dict, each key/value pair is used to contruct the list of definitions passed to the linker.
stamp		bool	Allows this rule to gain access to information about SCM revision etc via env vars. These can be useful to pass into `definitions`.
strip		bool	Determines whether the binary will be stripped of debug symbols or not. By default it depends on the build mode.

go_library


    go_library(name, srcs, resources, asm_srcs, hdrs, deps, visibility, test_only, complete, cover, filter_srcs, import_path, labels, package, pgo_file)

cover		bool	Indicates whether this library should be considered for coverage annotations. Libraries are only annotated when using `plz cover` (or `plz build -c cover`), but if this is false they never will be. Can be useful for e.g. third-party code that you never want to be instrumented.
filter_srcs		bool	If True, filters source files through Go's standard build constraints.
import_path		str	If set, this will override the import path of the generated go package.
labels		list
package		str	The package as it would appear at the top of the go source files. Defaults to name.
pgo_file		str	The CPU profile to supply for profile-guided optimisation.

go_mod_download


    go_mod_download(name, module, version, test_only, visibility, strip, licences, hashes, labels, deps, patch)

Downloads a third-party Go module using `go mod download`

This rule is typically used in conjunction with go_module() to resolve cyclic dependencies between modules. This rule
can be passed to go_module() via the download param which enables multiple go_module() rules to compile parts of the
whole module. It can also be useful to download from a fork of a module where the import path doesn't match the
repo path.

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule
module	yes	str	The module to download
version	yes	str	The version of the module.

go_module


    go_module(name, module, version, download, deps, exported_deps, visibility, test_only, binary, install, labels, hashes, licences, linker_flags, strip, env, patch, build_tags)

Defines a dependency on a third-party Go module.

Note that unlike a normal `go get` call, this does *not* install transitive dependencies.
You will need to add those as separate rules; `go list -f '{{.Deps}}' <package>` can be
useful to discover what they should be.

This rule is different to go_repo() in that it compiles the whole go module in one build action. This can lead to
issues when modules are cyclically dependent on each other. For this reason, go_repo is recommended over go_module().

Argument	Required	Type
name		str	Name of the rule
module	yes	str	The module to compile
version		str	The version of the module.
download		str	Can be provided instead of version to manage downloading the module separately. This must be a rule that has a single output containing the go sources of the module. Usually this will be a go_mod_download() rule however it doesn't have to be. This can be used for a number of purposes but primarily it is for resolving cyclic dependencies between modules.
deps		list	Dependencies
exported_deps		list	Dependencies to make available to anything using this rule.
visibility		list	Visibility specification
test_only		bool	If true this rule will only be visible to tests.
binary		bool	True if the output of the rule is a binary.
install		list	Only install listed (sub)packages. If the dict form is used, each key should correspond to a target in 'get', with the value defining the list of packages to install for that target. Specify the empty string as an element in the list to install a target's root package.
labels		list	Additional labels to apply to this rule.
hashes		list	List of hashes to verify the downloaded sources against.
licences		list	Licences this rule is subject to.
linker_flags		list	Any additional linker flags to apply. Linker flags defined in the module itself will automatically be collected so this is typically not necessary.
strip		list	List of paths to strip from the target after downloading but before building it.
env		dict	Any env variables to set during build time. This can be useful to set CGO_CFLAGS etc. to control aspects of compilation.
patch		list or str
build_tags		list	Any build tags to apply to the build context.

go_repo


    go_repo(module, version, download, name, install, requirements, licences, patch, visibility, deps, build_tags, third_party_path, strip, labels)

Adds a third party go module to the build graph as a subrepo. This is designed to be closer to how the `go.mod`
file works, requiring only the module name and version to be specified. Unlike go_module, each package is compiled
individually, and dependencies between packages are inferred by convention.

This build definition is designed to replace go_module(), requiring less toil to keep up to date, and improving
incrementalism and minimalism by compiling each package, rather than the whole module.

By convention, modules will be registered in subrepos of the same name, replacing forward slashes with
underscores, e.g. `github.com/stretchr/testify` becomes `github.com_stretchr_testify`. Assuming `go_repo` is
being used in the standard third party package, `//third_party/go`, the import path
`github.com/stretchr/testify/assert` is then always resolved to the build label
`///third_party/go/github.com_stretchr_testify//assert`. Similarly, binary targets are also generated for any "main"
package, which can be ran with `plz run` or used as tools e.g. to generate protobuf files.

To avoid cumbersome build labels, you may optionally pass a list of go package wildcards to the install argument of
this build definition. For example, passing in `name = "testify"`, and `install = ["assert"]`, you may depend on
`//third_party/go:testify`, instead of the individual packages within, e.g.
`///third_party/go/github.com_stretchr_testify//assert`

Argument	Required	Type
module	yes	str	The name of the module
version		str	The version of the module to download, if not providing the download parameter
download		str	A build rule to download the module, usually a go_mod_download().
name		str	The name of the returned rule. Defaults to the module name with forward slashes replaced with underscores.
install		list	Optional list of package wildcards to return from this rule. This can be useful to avoid cumbersome labels when depending on this module.
requirements		list	A list of requirements of this module that are not defined in its go.mod file
licences		list	The licence of this module to be checked against the allowed licences configured in Please.
patch		list	Any patch files to apply to the downloaded module.
visibility		list	The visibility for the returned "install" rule. Doesn't affect the subrepo at all.
deps		list	Any deps on other rule kinds that provide packages, for example go_module(). This can be used to migrate to go_repo incrementally, one module at a time.
build_tags		list	Build tags to pass to the Go compiler.
third_party_path		str	Optional path of third_party directory.
strip		list	A list of directories to strip from the repo
labels		list	Labels for this rule.

go_test_main


    go_test_main(name, srcs, test_package, test_only, external, deps, visibility, benchmark, cover, labels)

Outputs the main file for a Go test.

Provides a build rule for third-party dependencies to be installed by pip.

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the build rule.
version	yes	str	Specific version of the package to install.
labels		list	Additional labels to apply to this rule.
hashes		list	List of acceptable hashes for this target.

python_binary


    python_binary(name, main, srcs, resources, out, deps, data, visibility, test_only, zip_safe, site, strip, interpreter, shebang, labels)

Generates a Python binary target.

This compiles all source files together into a single .pex file which can
be easily copied or deployed. The construction of the .pex is done in parts
by the dependent python_library rules, and this rule simply builds the
metadata for it and concatenates them all together.

This target can be debugged via:
plz debug [-o python.debugger:[pdb|debugpy]] [--port] //:target

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule.
main	yes	str	Python file which is the entry point and __main__ module.
srcs		list	List of additional Python source files for this binary.
resources		list	List of static resources to include in the .pex.
out		str	Name of the output file. Default to name + .pex
deps		list	Dependencies of this rule.
data		list	Runtime data files for this rule.
visibility		list	Visibility specification.
test_only		bool	If True, can only be depended on by tests.
zip_safe		bool	Allows overriding whether the output is marked zip safe or not. If set to explicitly True or False, the output will be marked appropriately; by default it will be safe unless any of the transitive dependencies are themselves marked as not zip-safe.
site		bool	Allows the Python interpreter to import site; conversely if False, it will be started with the -S flag to avoid importing site.
strip		bool	Strips source code from the output .pex file, leaving just bytecode.
interpreter		str	The Python interpreter to use. Defaults to the value of the Python.DefaultInterpreter setting.
shebang		str	Exact shebang to apply to the generated file. By default we will determine something appropriate for the given interpreter.
labels		list	Labels to apply to this rule.

python_library


    python_library(name, srcs, resources, deps, visibility, test_only, zip_safe, labels, interpreter, strip)

Generates a Python library target, which collects Python files for use by dependent rules.

Note that each python_library performs some pre-zipping of its inputs before they're combined
in a python_binary or python_test. Hence while it's of course not required that all dependencies
of those rules are python_library rules, it's often a good idea to wrap any large dependencies
in one to improve incrementality (not necessary for pip_library, of course).

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule.
srcs		list	Python source files for this rule.
resources		list	Non-Python files that this rule collects which will be included in the final .pex. The distinction between this and srcs is fairly arbitrary and historical, but semantically quite nice and parallels python_test.
deps		list	Dependencies of this rule.
visibility		list	Visibility specification.
test_only		bool	If True, can only be depended on by tests.
zip_safe		bool	Should be set to False if this library can't be safely run inside a .pex (the most obvious reason not is when it contains .so modules). See python_binary for more information.
labels		list	Labels to apply to this rule.
interpreter		str	The Python interpreter to use. Defaults to the value of the Python.DefaultInterpreter setting.
strip		bool	If True, the original sources are stripped and only bytecode is output.

python_multiversion_wheel


    python_multiversion_wheel(name, version, urls, licences, visibility, hashes)

Downloads and combines multiple Python wheels.

Note that python 2 does not support versioned object file names, so this can only work
for one python 2 wheel at a time. For us that's not an issue since we only support 2.7
(and these days that's nearly always what people are using, so often not a big deal).

The wheels are downloaded from the given list of URLs Within those directories, and
combined into a single wheel. Later files will overwrite earlier files however these
common files should be identical if all the wheels are for the same version. The new
files will be the platform specific files.

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes		Name of the rule. Also doubles as the name of the package if package_name is not set.
version	yes	str
urls	yes	list	List of wheels to download.
licences		list	Licences that this wheel is subject to.
visibility
hashes		list	List of hashes to verify the package against. These are applied to all downloads so don't need to be in any specific order.

python_test


    python_test(name, srcs, data, resources, deps, worker, labels, size, flags, visibility, sandbox, timeout, flaky, test_outputs, zip_safe, interpreter, site, test_runner)

Generates a Python test target.

This works very similarly to python_binary; it is also a single .pex file
which is run to execute the tests. The tests are run via either unittest, pytest, or behave, depending
on which is set for the test runner, which can be configured either via the python_test_runner
package property or python.testrunner in the config.

This target can be debugged via:
plz debug [-o python.debugger:[pdb|debugpy]] [--port] //:target

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule.
srcs	yes	list	Source files for this test.
data		list or dict	Runtime data files for the test.
resources		list	Non-Python files to be included in the pex. Note that the distinction vs. srcs is important here; srcs are passed to unittest for it to run and it may or may not be happy if given non-Python files.
deps		list	Dependencies of this rule.
worker		str	Reference to worker script, A persistent worker process that is used to set up the test.
labels		list	Labels for this rule.
size		str	Test size (enormous, large, medium or small).
flags		str	Flags to apply to the test command.
visibility		list	Visibility specification.
sandbox		bool	Sandbox the test on Linux to restrict access to namespaces such as network.
timeout		int	Maximum time this test is allowed to run for, in seconds.
flaky		bool or int	True to mark this test as flaky, or an integer for a number of reruns.
test_outputs		list	Extra test output files to generate from this test.
zip_safe		bool	Allows overriding whether the output is marked zip safe or not. If set to explicitly True or False, the output will be marked appropriately; by default it will be safe unless any of the transitive dependencies are themselves marked as not zip-safe.
interpreter		str	The Python interpreter to use. Defaults to the value of the Python.DefaultInterpreter setting.
site		bool	Allows the Python interpreter to import site; conversely if False, it will be started with the -S flag to avoid importing site.
test_runner		str	Specify which Python test runner to use for these tests. One of `unittest`, `pytest`, or a custom test runner entry point.

python_wheel


    python_wheel(name, version, labels, hashes, package_name, outs, post_install_commands, patch, licences, test_only, repo, zip_safe, visibility, deps, name_scheme, strip, binary, entry_points, tool)

Downloads a Python wheel and extracts it.

This is a lightweight pip-free alternative to pip_library which supports cross-compiling.
Rather than leaning on pip which is difficult to achieve reproducible builds with and
support on different platforms, this rule is a simple wrapper around curl and unzip.
Unless otherwise specified, the wheels are expected to adhere to common naming schemes,
such as:
<package_name>-<version>[-<os>-<arch>].whl
<package_name>-<version>[-<os>_<arch>].whl
<package_name>-<version>.whl

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule. Also doubles as the name of the package if package_name is not set.
version	yes	str	Version of the package to install.
labels		list	Additional labels to apply to this rule.
hashes		list	List of hashes to verify the package against.
package_name		str	If given, overrides `name` for the name of the package to look for.
outs		list	List of output files. Defaults to a directory named the same as `name`.
post_install_commands		list	Commands to run after 'install'.
patch		str or list	Patch file to apply after install to fix any upstream code that has done bad things.
licences		list	Licences that this rule is subject to.
test_only		bool	If True, this library can only be used by tests.
repo		str	Repository to download wheels from.
zip_safe		bool	Flag to indicate whether a pex including this rule will be zip-safe.
visibility		list	Visibility declaration.
deps		list	Dependencies of this rule.
name_scheme		str	The templatized wheel naming scheme (available template variables are `url_base`, `package_name`, `initial`, and `version`).
strip		list	Files to strip after install. Note that these are done at any level.
binary			Whether this wheel should be executable. This assumes that the wheel will contain a __main__ module with a main() function. If this is not the case, then entry_points should be used.
entry_points			Any entry points into this wheel. These relate to the entrypoints.txt in the dist-info of the wheel, which define a module, and function in the format "module.path:function". This parameter can be a string, in which case the rule can be ran directly, or a dictionary, for example `{"protoc", "protoc.__main__:main"}. For the latter, each key can be ran using annotated labels, e.g. `plz run //third_party/python:protobuf\|protoc`
tool		str	Tool to locate python wheel file in an index

Shell rules

rules for creating .sh files

sh_binary


    sh_binary(name, main, out, deps, data, visibility, labels)

Generates a shell script binary.

It assumes that unzip is in your path.

The resulting script will contain three things:
1) Code necessary to unzip dependent files.
2) The user defined shell script.
3) The zipfile containing all dependent files.

Argument	Required	Type

    sh_cmd(name, cmd, srcs, data, out, shell, labels, deps, visibility, expand_env_vars, test_only)

Generates a runnable shell script from a command.

This is doable with a genrule with a little effort but it's awkward enough to be nice
to have a builtin.
The command is subject to Please's usual variable expansion at build time. Note that if
you want `plz run` to transparently work and refer to other files, you may need to use
$(out_location ...) instead of $(location ...).

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule.
cmd	yes	str or dict or list	Command to write into the output script file. The commands are subject to shell expansion during build time by default. If that is to be avoided, set expand_env_vars to False, or escape the variables with \\\$, i.e. \\\${@}.
srcs		list or dict	Source files. Can be consumed as env variables by the generated command (but are not written into the output in any other way).
data		list	Runtime data for this rule.
out		str	Name of the output file to create. Defaults to name + .sh.
shell		str	Shell to invoke in, by default /bin/sh.
labels		list	Labels to apply to this rule.
deps		list	Any dependencies for this rule. These can be consumed as env variables in the cmd but are not used in any other way.
visibility		list	Visibility declaration of the rule.

test_only		bool	If True, this rule can only be depended on by tests.

sh_library


    sh_library(name, src, deps, visibility, labels)

Generates a shell script binary, essentially just the given source.

Note that these are individually executable so can only have one source file each.
This is a bit tedious and would be nice to improve sometime.

Argument	Required	Type
name	yes	str	Name of the rule.
src	yes	str	Source file for the rule.
deps		list	Dependencies of this rule.
visibility		list	Visibility declaration of the rule.
labels		list	List of labels.

src		str	Test script file.
labels		list	Labels to apply to this test.
data		list or dict	Runtime data for the test.
deps		list	Dependencies of this rule
worker		str	Reference to worker script, A persistent worker process that is used to set up the test.
size		str	Test size (enormous, large, medium or small).
visibility		list	Visibility declaration of the rule.
flags		str	Flags to apply to the test invocation.
flaky		bool or int	True to mark this as flaky and automatically rerun.
