Awesome

This code has been been merged back into bazel-eclipse. No further development activity will happen here.

B2Eclipse

This is the set of Eclipse plugins for developing Bazel projects in Eclipse. Currently supports running in a language server mode only (through the Eclipse JDT LS).

Repository structure

• com.salesforce.b2eclipse.jdt.ls - the code which does all that Bazel-related stuff for building classpaths before they can be further processed by JDT.
• com.salesforce.b2eclipse.repository - here you can find the outcome of the build (packaged plugins).
• com.salesforce.b2eclipse.tests - integration tests for the jdt.ls plugin.
• com.salesforce.b2eclipse.ui - a plugin for the client (the one which is connected to the language server for code interactions). It's rather a simple connection provider to a language server, not a full-fledged UI plugin.

Properties

The following properties are passed from the client to configure the plugin:

• java.import.bazel.enabled - whether Bazel support should be enabled in JDT LS (disabled by default);
• java.import.bazel.src.path - location of sources (relative to a package). Defaults to /src/main/java;
• java.import.bazel.test.path - location of test sources (relative to a package). Defaults to /src/test/java.

Assumptions

• Root package is not allowed (i.e. there should be no BUILD file beside the WORKSPACE);
• A project has to be in a valid state (i.e. no unsatisfied dependencies are allowed);
• Each package is to have sources;
• Sources of a package are expected to be under the path specified through the following properties: java.import.bazel.src.path, java.import.bazel.test.path (details in the Properties section).
• Sources of a package cannot reside in the root of it. They should be in a subdir;
• Subpackages are not supported (i.e. package within package).

Future vision

Will be shipped separately as two independent features: standalone feature and as extension for Eclipse JDT LS.

Building from the command line

The following command will install Apache Maven if necessary, then build the server into the /com.salesforce.b2eclipse.repository/target/repository folder:

    $ ./mvnw clean verify

Note: currently, the build can only run when launched with JDK 8.

Features

• Code completion
• Code navigation
