Bazel
Run the dev loop on a Bazel project
Bazel-based mobile projects use a rebuild-based dev loop. Revyl detects Bazel
workspaces by looking for MODULE.bazel, WORKSPACE.bazel, or WORKSPACE
files. Bazel is a build tool, not a supported build.framework value.
When Revyl finds one native app platform, revyl init authors an ios- or
android-oriented profile using the inferred Bazel command or a placeholder
for you to complete. When the workspace spans both native platforms, init
writes project and session configuration only. Configure each native app as
its own platform-oriented Revyl project rather than authoring legacy
build.system or build.platforms fields.
Set up with an agent
Paste one prompt and your coding agent does the rest.
Setup prompt
Set up Revyl for this Bazel project. Read https://docs.revyl.com/frameworks/bazel.md and follow it. It's the current Revyl guide for this, so prefer it over anything you remember about Revyl. Build the app's existing target in debug mode (`-c dbg`). If the workspace builds both an iOS and an Android app, set each up as its own Revyl project. You're done when `revyl config validate` passes and the app runs in the Revyl dev loop. Ask me before anything that needs my login or approval.
What revyl init shows
Detected: Bazel
Platforms: android, ios
Bazel workspace detected with concrete android and ios targets.
Writing project and session configuration only; no build profiles were added.Example configuration
build:
framework: ios
profiles:
development:
ios:
build_commands:
- "bazel run //tools:generate_mobile_sources"
- "bazel build //ios:MyApp -c dbg"
output_path: "bazel-bin/ios/MyApp.app"For an Android app, use framework: android and an android recipe in that
app's project config. Run revyl config validate after authoring the recipe.
