jinnovation / bazel-transient

Transient execution of Bazel commands.

NOTE: This package is heavily a work in progress.

Overview

This package implements a transient command for running commands on a Bazel workspace. It is heavily inspired by the use of transient commands in Magit.

Development Notes

I am prioritizing the testing workflow, i.e. bazel test, since that is what’s most pressing to me in my current work at the moment. Currently, the following are possible from within the transient:

• Easily switch between different test output and summary styles;
• Set test timeout;
• Set test filter;
• Select the test target within the workspace to run;
• Run all tests within the current buffer’s package.
