iso_date The iso_date of cargo binary the resolver should use. Note: This can only be set if version is beta or nightly String optional ""
repo_mapping A dictionary from local repository name to global repository name. This allows controls over workspace dependency resolution for dependencies of this repository.<p>For example, an entry "@foo": "@bar" declares that, for any time this repository depends on @foo (such as a dependency on @foo//some:target, it should actually resolve that dependency within globally-declared @bar (@bar//some:target). Dictionary: String -> String required  
rust_toolchain_cargo_template The template to use for finding the host cargo binary. {version} (eg. ‘1.53.0’), {triple} (eg. ‘x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu’), {arch} (eg. ‘aarch64’), {vendor} (eg. ‘unknown’), {system} (eg. ‘darwin’), {channel} (eg. ‘stable’), and {tool} (eg. ‘rustc.exe’) will be replaced in the string if present.

ATTRIBUTES

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  
out_dir Folder containing additional inputs when building all direct dependencies.

This has the same effect as a cargo_build_script which prints puts files into $OUT_DIR, but without requiring a build script.
Label optional None
src File containing additional environment variables to set for build scripts of direct dependencies.

This has the same effect as a cargo_build_script which prints cargo:VAR=VALUE lines, but without requiring a build script.

This files should contain a single variable per line, of format NAME=value, and newlines may be included in a value by ending a line with a trailing back-slash (\\).
Label required  

error_format

error_format(name)

Change the –error-format flag from the command line with --@rules_rust//:error_format. See rustc documentation for valid values.

ATTRIBUTES

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  

extra_rustc_flag

extra_rustc_flag(name)

Add additional rustc_flag from the command line with --@rules_rust//:extra_rustc_flag. Multiple uses are accumulated and appended after the extra_rustc_flags.

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  

extra_rustc_flags

extra_rustc_flags(name)

Add additional rustc_flags from the command line with --@rules_rust//:extra_rustc_flags. This flag should only be used for flags that need to be applied across the entire build. For options that apply to individual crates, use the rustc_flags attribute on the individual crate’s rule instead. NOTE: These flags not applied to the exec configuration (proc-macros, cargo_build_script, etc); use --@rules_rust//:extra_exec_rustc_flags to apply flags to the exec configuration.

rust_binary(name, aliases, compile_data, crate_features, crate_name, crate_root, crate_type, data,
            deps, edition, env, experimental_use_cc_common_link, linker_script, malloc, out_binary,
            platform, proc_macro_deps, rustc_env, rustc_env_files, rustc_flags, srcs, stamp, version)

Builds a Rust binary crate.

Example:

Suppose you have the following directory structure for a Rust project with a library crate, hello_lib, and a binary crate, hello_world that uses the hello_lib library:

[workspace]/
    WORKSPACE
    hello_lib/
        BUILD
        src/
            lib.rs
    hello_world/
        BUILD
        src/
            main.rs

hello_lib/src/lib.rs:

pub struct Greeter {
    greeting: String,
}

impl Greeter {
    pub fn new(greeting: &str) -&gt; Greeter {
        Greeter { greeting: greeting.to_string(), }
    }

    pub fn greet(&self, thing: &str) {
        println!("{} {}", &self.greeting, thing);
    }
}

hello_lib/BUILD:

package(default_visibility = ["//visibility:public"])

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_library")

rust_library(
    name = "hello_lib",
    srcs = ["src/lib.rs"],
)

hello_world/src/main.rs:

extern crate hello_lib;

fn main() {
    let hello = hello_lib::Greeter::new("Hello");
    hello.greet("world");
}

hello_world/BUILD:

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_binary")

rust_binary(
    name = "hello_world",
    srcs = ["src/main.rs"],
    deps = ["//hello_lib"],
)

Build and run hello_world:

$ bazel run //hello_world
INFO: Found 1 target...
Target //examples/rust/hello_world:hello_world up-to-date:
bazel-bin/examples/rust/hello_world/hello_world
INFO: Elapsed time: 1.308s, Critical Path: 1.22s

INFO: Running command line: bazel-bin/examples/rust/hello_world/hello_world
Hello world

On Windows, a PDB file containing debugging information is available under the key pdb_file in OutputGroupInfo. Similarly on macOS, a dSYM folder is available under the key dsym_folder in OutputGroupInfo.

ATTRIBUTES

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  
aliases Remap crates to a new name or moniker for linkage to this target

These are other rust_library targets and will be presented as the new name given.
Dictionary: Label -> String optional {}
compile_data List of files used by this rule at compile time.

This attribute can be used to specify any data files that are embedded into the library, such as via the include_str! macro.
List of labels optional []
crate_features List of features to enable for this crate.

Features are defined in the code using the #[cfg(feature = "foo")] configuration option. The features listed here will be passed to rustc with --cfg feature="${feature_name}" flags.
List of strings optional []
crate_name Crate name to use for this target.

This must be a valid Rust identifier, i.e. it may contain only alphanumeric characters and underscores. Defaults to the target name, with any hyphens replaced by underscores.
String optional ""
crate_root The file that will be passed to rustc to be used for building this crate.

If crate_root is not set, then this rule will look for a lib.rs file (or main.rs for rust_binary) or the single file in srcs if srcs contains only one file.
Label optional None
crate_type Crate type that will be passed to rustc to be used for building this crate.

This option is a temporary workaround and should be used only when building for WebAssembly targets (//rust/platform:wasi and //rust/platform:wasm).
String optional "bin"
data List of files used by this rule at compile time and runtime.

If including data at compile time with include_str!() and similar, prefer compile_data over data, to prevent the data also being included in the runfiles.
List of labels optional []
deps List of other libraries to be linked to this library target.

These can be either other rust_library targets or cc_library targets if linking a native library.
List of labels optional []
edition The rust edition to use for this crate. Defaults to the edition specified in the rust_toolchain. String optional ""
env Specifies additional environment variables to set when the target is executed by bazel run. Values are subject to $(rootpath), $(execpath), location, and “Make variable” substitution.

Execpath returns absolute path, and in order to be able to construct the absolute path we need to wrap the test binary in a launcher. Using a launcher comes with complications, such as more complicated debugger attachment.
Dictionary: String -> String optional {}
experimental_use_cc_common_link Whether to use cc_common.link to link rust binaries. Possible values: [-1, 0, 1]. -1 means use the value of the toolchain.experimental_use_cc_common_link boolean build setting to determine. 0 means do not use cc_common.link (use rustc instead). 1 means use cc_common.link. Integer optional -1
linker_script Link script to forward into linker via rustc options. Label optional None
malloc Override the default dependency on malloc.

By default, Rust binaries linked with cc_common.link are linked against @bazel_tools//tools/cpp:malloc", which is an empty library and the resulting binary will use libc’s malloc. This label must refer to a cc_library rule.
Label optional @bazel_tools//tools/cpp:malloc
out_binary Force a target, regardless of it’s crate_type, to always mark the file as executable. This attribute is only used to support wasm targets but is expected to be removed following a resolution to https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_rust/issues/771. Boolean optional False
platform Optional platform to transition the binary to. Label optional None
proc_macro_deps List of rust_proc_macro targets used to help build this library target. List of labels optional []
rustc_env Dictionary of additional "key": "value" environment variables to set for rustc.

rust_test()/rust_binary() rules can use $(rootpath //package:target) to pass in the location of a generated file or external tool. Cargo build scripts that wish to expand locations should use cargo_build_script()’s build_script_env argument instead, as build scripts are run in a different environment - see cargo_build_script()’s documentation for more.
Dictionary: String -> String optional {}
rustc_env_files Files containing additional environment variables to set for rustc.

These files should contain a single variable per line, of format NAME=value, and newlines may be included in a value by ending a line with a trailing back-slash (\\).

The order that these files will be processed is unspecified, so multiple definitions of a particular variable are discouraged.

Note that the variables here are subject to workspace status stamping should the stamp attribute be enabled. Stamp variables should be wrapped in brackets in order to be resolved. E.g. NAME={WORKSPACE_STATUS_VARIABLE}.
List of labels optional []
rustc_flags List of compiler flags passed to rustc.

These strings are subject to Make variable expansion for predefined source/output path variables like $location, $execpath, and $rootpath. This expansion is useful if you wish to pass a generated file of arguments to rustc: @$(location //package:target).
List of strings optional []
srcs List of Rust .rs source files used to build the library.

If srcs contains more than one file, then there must be a file either named lib.rs. Otherwise, crate_root must be set to the source file that is the root of the crate to be passed to rustc to build this crate.
List of labels optional []
stamp Whether to encode build information into the Rustc action. Possible values:

- stamp = 1: Always stamp the build information into the Rustc action, even in –nostamp builds. This setting should be avoided, since it potentially kills remote caching for the target and any downstream actions that depend on it.

- stamp = 0: Always replace build information by constant values. This gives good build result caching.

- stamp = -1: Embedding of build information is controlled by the –[no]stamp flag.

Stamped targets are not rebuilt unless their dependencies change.

For example if a rust_library is stamped, and a rust_binary depends on that library, the stamped library won’t be rebuilt when we change sources of the rust_binary. This is different from how cc_library.linkstamps behaves.
Integer optional -1
version A version to inject in the cargo environment variable. String optional "0.0.0"

rust_bindgen

rust_bindgen(name, bindgen_flags, cc_lib, clang_flags, header)

Generates a rust source file from a cc_library and a header.

ATTRIBUTES

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  
bindgen_flags Flags to pass directly to the bindgen executable. See https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-bindgen/ for details. List of strings optional []
cc_lib The cc_library that contains the .h file. This is used to find the transitive includes. Label required  
clang_flags Flags to pass directly to the clang executable. List of strings optional []
header The .h file to generate bindings for. Label required  

rust_bindgen_toolchain

rust_bindgen_toolchain(name, bindgen, clang, default_rustfmt, libclang, libstdcxx)

The tools required for the rust_bindgen rule.

This rule depends on the bindgen binary crate, and it in turn depends on both a clang binary and the clang library. To obtain these dependencies, rust_bindgen_dependencies imports bindgen and its dependencies.

load("@rules_rust//bindgen:defs.bzl", "rust_bindgen_toolchain")

rust_bindgen_toolchain(
    name = "bindgen_toolchain_impl",
    bindgen = "//my/rust:bindgen",
    clang = "//my/clang:clang",
    libclang = "//my/clang:libclang.so",
    libstdcxx = "//my/cpp:libstdc++",
)

toolchain(
    name = "bindgen_toolchain",
    toolchain = "bindgen_toolchain_impl",
    toolchain_type = "@rules_rust//bindgen:toolchain_type",
)

This toolchain will then need to be registered in the current WORKSPACE. For additional information, see the Bazel toolchains documentation.

ATTRIBUTES

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  
bindgen The label of a bindgen executable. Label optional None
clang The label of a clang executable. Label optional None

libclang A cc_library that provides bindgen’s runtime dependency on libclang. Label optional None
libstdcxx A cc_library that satisfies libclang’s libstdc++ dependency. This is used to make the execution of clang hermetic. If None, system libraries will be used instead. Label optional None

rust_clippy

rust_clippy(name, deps)

Executes the clippy checker on a specific target.

Similar to rust_clippy_aspect, but allows specifying a list of dependencies within the build system.

For example, given the following example targets:

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_library", "rust_test")

rust_library(
    name = "hello_lib",
    srcs = ["src/lib.rs"],
)

rust_test(
    name = "greeting_test",
    srcs = ["tests/greeting.rs"],
    deps = [":hello_lib"],
)

Rust clippy can be set as a build target with the following:

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_clippy")

rust_clippy(
    name = "hello_library_clippy",
    testonly = True,
    deps = [
        ":hello_lib",
        ":greeting_test",
    ],
)

ATTRIBUTES

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  
deps Rust targets to run clippy on. List of labels optional []

rust_doc

rust_doc(name, crate, html_after_content, html_before_content, html_in_header, markdown_css,
         rustc_flags, rustdoc_flags)

Generates code documentation.

Example: Suppose you have the following directory structure for a Rust library crate:

[workspace]/
    WORKSPACE
    hello_lib/
        BUILD
        src/
            lib.rs

To build rustdoc documentation for the hello_lib crate, define a rust_doc rule that depends on the the hello_lib rust_library target:

package(default_visibility = ["//visibility:public"])

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_library", "rust_doc")

rust_library(
    name = "hello_lib",
    srcs = ["src/lib.rs"],
)

rust_doc(
    name = "hello_lib_doc",
    crate = ":hello_lib",
)

Running bazel build //hello_lib:hello_lib_doc will build a zip file containing the documentation for the hello_lib library crate generated by rustdoc.

ATTRIBUTES

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  
crate The label of the target to generate code documentation for.

rust_doc can generate HTML code documentation for the source files of rust_library or rust_binary targets.
Label required

Example:

Suppose you have the following directory structure for a Rust library crate:

[workspace]/
WORKSPACE
hello_lib/
    BUILD
    src/
        lib.rs

To run documentation tests for the hello_lib crate, define a rust_doc_test target that depends on the hello_lib rust_library target:

package(default_visibility = ["//visibility:public"])

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_library", "rust_doc_test")

rust_library(
    name = "hello_lib",
    srcs = ["src/lib.rs"],
)

rust_doc_test(
    name = "hello_lib_doc_test",
    crate = ":hello_lib",

                edition, proc_macro_deps, rustc_env, rustc_env_files, rustc_flags, srcs, stamp,
                version)

Builds a Rust proc-macro crate.

ATTRIBUTES

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  
aliases Remap crates to a new name or moniker for linkage to this target

These are other rust_library targets and will be presented as the new name given.
Dictionary: Label -> String optional {}
compile_data List of files used by this rule at compile time.

This attribute can be used to specify any data files that are embedded into the library, such as via the include_str! macro.
List of labels optional []
crate_features List of features to enable for this crate.

Features are defined in the code using the #[cfg(feature = "foo")] configuration option. The features listed here will be passed to rustc with --cfg feature="${feature_name}" flags.
List of strings optional []
crate_name Crate name to use for this target.

This must be a valid Rust identifier, i.e. it may contain only alphanumeric characters and underscores. Defaults to the target name, with any hyphens replaced by underscores.
String optional ""
crate_root The file that will be passed to rustc to be used for building this crate.

If crate_root is not set, then this rule will look for a lib.rs file (or main.rs for rust_binary) or the single file in srcs if srcs contains only one file.
Label optional None
data List of files used by this rule at compile time and runtime.

If including data at compile time with include_str!() and similar, prefer compile_data over data, to prevent the data also being included in the runfiles.
List of labels optional []
deps List of other libraries to be linked to this library target.

These can be either other rust_library targets or cc_library targets if linking a native library.
List of labels optional []
edition The rust edition to use for this crate. Defaults to the edition specified in the rust_toolchain. String optional ""
proc_macro_deps List of rust_proc_macro targets used to help build this library target. List of labels optional []
rustc_env Dictionary of additional "key": "value" environment variables to set for rustc.

rust_test()/rust_binary() rules can use $(rootpath //package:target) to pass in the location of a generated file or external tool. Cargo build scripts that wish to expand locations should use cargo_build_script()’s build_script_env argument instead, as build scripts are run in a different environment - see cargo_build_script()’s documentation for more.
Dictionary: String -> String optional {}
rustc_env_files Files containing additional environment variables to set for rustc.

These files should contain a single variable per line, of format NAME=value, and newlines may be included in a value by ending a line with a trailing back-slash (\\).

The order that these files will be processed is unspecified, so multiple definitions of a particular variable are discouraged.

Note that the variables here are subject to workspace status stamping should the stamp attribute be enabled. Stamp variables should be wrapped in brackets in order to be resolved. E.g. NAME={WORKSPACE_STATUS_VARIABLE}.
List of labels optional []
rustc_flags List of compiler flags passed to rustc.

These strings are subject to Make variable expansion for predefined source/output path variables like $location, $execpath, and $rootpath. This expansion is useful if you wish to pass a generated file of arguments to rustc: @$(location //package:target).
List of strings optional []
srcs List of Rust .rs source files used to build the library.

If srcs contains more than one file, then there must be a file either named lib.rs. Otherwise, crate_root must be set to the source file that is the root of the crate to be passed to rustc to build this crate.
List of labels optional []
stamp Whether to encode build information into the Rustc action. Possible values:

- stamp = 1: Always stamp the build information into the Rustc action, even in –nostamp builds. This setting should be avoided, since it potentially kills remote caching for the target and any downstream actions that depend on it.

- stamp = 0: Always replace build information by constant values. This gives good build result caching.

- stamp = -1: Embedding of build information is controlled by the –[no]stamp flag.

Stamped targets are not rebuilt unless their dependencies change.

For example if a rust_library is stamped, and a rust_binary depends on that library, the stamped library won’t be rebuilt when we change sources of the rust_binary. This is different from how cc_library.linkstamps behaves.
Integer optional 0
version A version to inject in the cargo environment variable. String optional "0.0.0"

          rustc_env_files, rustc_flags, srcs, stamp, use_libtest_harness, version)

Builds a Rust test crate.

Examples:

Suppose you have the following directory structure for a Rust library crate with unit test code in the library sources:

[workspace]/
    WORKSPACE
    hello_lib/
        BUILD
        src/
            lib.rs

hello_lib/src/lib.rs:

pub struct Greeter {
    greeting: String,
}

impl Greeter {
    pub fn new(greeting: &str) -&gt; Greeter {
        Greeter { greeting: greeting.to_string(), }
    }

    pub fn greet(&self, thing: &str) -&gt; String {
        format!("{} {}", &self.greeting, thing)
    }
}

#[cfg(test)]
mod test {
    use super::Greeter;

    #[test]
    fn test_greeting() {
        let hello = Greeter::new("Hi");
        assert_eq!("Hi Rust", hello.greet("Rust"));
    }
}

To build and run the tests, simply add a rust_test rule with no srcs and only depends on the hello_lib rust_library target via the crate attribute:

hello_lib/BUILD:

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_library", "rust_test")

rust_library(
    name = "hello_lib",
    srcs = ["src/lib.rs"],
)

rust_test(
    name = "hello_lib_test",
    crate = ":hello_lib",
    # You may add other deps that are specific to the test configuration
    deps = ["//some/dev/dep"],
)

Run the test with bazel test //hello_lib:hello_lib_test. The crate will be built using the same crate name as the underlying “:hello_lib” crate.

Example: test directory

Integration tests that live in the tests directory, they are essentially built as separate crates. Suppose you have the following directory structure where greeting.rs is an integration test for the hello_lib library crate:

[workspace]/
    WORKSPACE
    hello_lib/
        BUILD
        src/
            lib.rs
        tests/
            greeting.rs

hello_lib/tests/greeting.rs:

extern crate hello_lib;

use hello_lib;

#[test]
fn test_greeting() {
    let hello = greeter::Greeter::new("Hello");
    assert_eq!("Hello world", hello.greeting("world"));
}

To build the greeting.rs integration test, simply add a rust_test target with greeting.rs in srcs and a dependency on the hello_lib target:

hello_lib/BUILD:

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_library", "rust_test")

rust_library(
    name = "hello_lib",
    srcs = ["src/lib.rs"],
)

rust_test(
    name = "greeting_test",
    srcs = ["tests/greeting.rs"],
    deps = [":hello_lib"],
)

Run the test with bazel test //hello_lib:greeting_test.

rust_toolchain

rust_toolchain(name, allocator_library, binary_ext, cargo, clippy_driver, debug_info,

               rustfmt, staticlib_ext, stdlib_linkflags, strip_level, target_json, target_triple)

Declares a Rust toolchain for use.

This is for declaring a custom toolchain, eg. for configuring a particular version of rust or supporting a new platform.

Example:

Suppose the core rust team has ported the compiler to a new target CPU, called cpuX. This support can be used in Bazel by defining a new toolchain definition and declaration:

load('@rules_rust//rust:toolchain.bzl', 'rust_toolchain')

rust_toolchain(
    name = "rust_cpuX_impl",
    binary_ext = "",
    dylib_ext = ".so",
    exec_triple = "cpuX-unknown-linux-gnu",
    rust_doc = "@rust_cpuX//:rustdoc",
    rust_std = "@rust_cpuX//:rust_std",
    rustc = "@rust_cpuX//:rustc",
    rustc_lib = "@rust_cpuX//:rustc_lib",
    staticlib_ext = ".a",
    stdlib_linkflags = ["-lpthread", "-ldl"],
    target_triple = "cpuX-unknown-linux-gnu",
)

toolchain(
    name = "rust_cpuX",
    exec_compatible_with = [
        "@platforms//cpu:cpuX",
        "@platforms//os:linux",
    ],
    target_compatible_with = [
        "@platforms//cpu:cpuX",
        "@platforms//os:linux",
    ],
    toolchain = ":rust_cpuX_impl",
)

Then, either add the label of the toolchain rule to register_toolchains in the WORKSPACE, or pass it to the "--extra_toolchains" flag for Bazel, and it will be used.

See @rules_rust//rust:repositories.bzl for examples of defining the @rust_cpuX repository with the actual binaries and libraries.

                   rundir, rustc_env, rustc_env_files, rustc_flags, visibility, tags, aliases, kwargs)

Compile and execute a rust build script to generate build attributes

This rules take the same arguments as rust_binary.

Example:

Suppose you have a crate with a cargo build script build.rs:

[workspace]/
    hello_lib/
        BUILD
        build.rs
        src/
            lib.rs

Then you want to use the build script in the following:

hello_lib/BUILD:

package(default_visibility = ["//visibility:public"])

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_binary", "rust_library")
load("@rules_rust//cargo:defs.bzl", "cargo_build_script")

# This will run the build script from the root of the workspace, and
# collect the outputs.
cargo_build_script(
    name = "build_script",
    srcs = ["build.rs"],
    # Optional environment variables passed during build.rs compilation
    rustc_env = {
       "CARGO_PKG_VERSION": "0.1.2",
    },
    # Optional environment variables passed during build.rs execution.
    # Note that as the build script's working directory is not execroot,
    # execpath/location will return an absolute path, instead of a relative
    # one.
    build_script_env = {
        "SOME_TOOL_OR_FILE": "$(execpath @tool//:binary)"
    },
    # Optional data/tool dependencies
    data = ["@tool//:binary"],
)

rust_library(
    name = "hello_lib",
    srcs = [
        "src/lib.rs",
    ],
    deps = [":build_script"],
)

The hello_lib target will be build with the flags and the environment variables declared by the build script in addition to the file generated by it.

crate_features A list of features to enable for the build script. []
version The semantic version (semver) of the crate. None
deps The build-dependencies of the crate. []
link_deps The subset of the (normal) dependencies of the crate that have the links attribute and therefore provide environment variables to this build script. []

rundir A directory to cd to before the cargo_build_script is run. This should be a path relative to the exec root.

The default behaviour (and the behaviour if rundir is set to the empty string) is to change to the relative path corresponding to the cargo manifest directory, which replicates the normal behaviour of cargo so it is easy to write compatible build scripts.

If set to ., the cargo build script will run in the exec root.
None
rustc_env Environment variables to set in rustc when compiling the build script. {}
rustc_env_files Files containing additional environment variables to set for rustc when building the build script. []
rustc_flags List of compiler flags passed to rustc. []
visibility Visibility to apply to the generated build script output. None
tags (list of str, optional): Tags to apply to the generated build script output. None
aliases Remap crates to a new name or moniker for linkage to this target. These are other rust_library targets and will be presented as the new name given. None
kwargs Forwards to the underlying rust_binary rule. An exception is the compatible_with attribute, which shouldn’t be forwarded to the rust_binary, as the rust_binary is only built and used in exec mode. We propagate the compatible_with attribute to the _build_scirpt_run target. none

rust_test_suite

rust_test_suite(name, srcs, kwargs)

A rule for creating a test suite for a set of rust_test targets.

This rule can be used for setting up typical rust integration tests. Given the following directory structure:

[crate]/
    BUILD.bazel
    src/
        lib.rs
        main.rs
    tests/
        integrated_test_a.rs
        integrated_test_b.rs
        integrated_test_c.rs
        patterns/
            fibonacci_test.rs

The rule can be used to generate rust_test targets for each source file under tests and a test_suite which encapsulates all tests.

load("//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_binary", "rust_library", "rust_test_suite")

rust_library(
    name = "math_lib",
    srcs = ["src/lib.rs"],

    name = "integrated_tests_suite",
    srcs = glob(["tests/**"]),
    deps = [":math_lib"],
)

PARAMETERS

Name Description Default Value
name The name of the test_suite. none
srcs All test sources, typically glob(["tests/**/*.rs"]). none
kwargs Additional keyword arguments for the underyling rust_test targets. The tags argument is also passed to the generated test_suite target. none

name A unique name for this target. Name required  

rust_clippy_aspect

rust_clippy_aspect(name)

Executes the clippy checker on specified targets.

This aspect applies to existing rust_library, rust_test, and rust_binary rules.

As an example, if the following is defined in examples/hello_lib/BUILD.bazel:

load("@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl", "rust_library", "rust_test")

rust_library(
    name = "hello_lib",
    srcs = ["src/lib.rs"],
)

rust_test(
    name = "greeting_test",
    srcs = ["tests/greeting.rs"],
    deps = [":hello_lib"],
)

Then the targets can be analyzed with clippy using the following command:

$ bazel build --aspects=@rules_rust//rust:defs.bzl%rust_clippy_aspect               --output_groups=clippy_checks //hello_lib:all

Name Description Type Mandatory Default
name A unique name for this target. Name required  

rustfmt_aspect

rustfmt_aspect(name)

This aspect is used to gather information about a crate for use in rustfmt and perform rustfmt checks

Output Groups:

The build setting @rules_rust//:rustfmt.toml is used to control the Rustfmt configuration settings used at runtime.

This aspect is executed on any target which provides the CrateInfo provider. However users may tag a target with no-rustfmt or no-format to have it skipped. Additionally, generated source files are also ignored by this aspect.
