Tool to enable jumping to the target containing the source file (relies on buildozer)
Features
VSCode:
Provides a single command bazel-goto-build.goToBuild which will jump to the BUILD file and line at which the target is defined which contains the current source file.
Vim/NeoVim:
Manual work is needed as there is not yet a plugin which integrates the tool. Please see the Integration with Vim/NeoVim section below.
Requirements
This tool (both VSCode and Vim/NeoVim) currently only works on linux. It depends heavily on buildozer to parse BUILD files and fine the srcs, hdrs (if applicable), and data deps for each rule in a Bazel WORKSPACE.
Support for Windows and OSX may be considered in the future.
The main driver script (goto_build.py) depends on buildozer but will fetch it itself the first time it is run.
Integration with Vim/NeoVim
To use the tool in Vim/NeoVim, add the following to your .vimrc or init.vim and adjust the command so that the path points to the goto_build.py file in this repository.
function! s:gotobuild() abort
let l:file_path=expand('%:p')
let l:command="path/to/goto_build.py -i " . l:file_path
let l:result=trim(system(l:command))
if l:result == ""
echo 'No corresponding BUILD file found'
else
let l:result_list=split(l:result, ':')
let l:build_file_name=l:result_list[0]
let l:build_file_line=l:result_list[1]
execute 'edit +' . l:build_file_line l:build_file_name
execute 'normal! zz'
endif
endfunction
command! -complete=command GOTOBuild call <SID>gotobuild()
nnoremap <silent> mB :GOTOBuild<CR>
