Builds using Bazel
Installation (using Helm)
Make sure both kubectl and helm are installed.
When creating a new workspace, take a look at the Kubectl recipe and the Helm recipe.
Install bazel buildfarm on your k8s cluster using the official helm chart:
helm install \
-n bazel-buildfarm \
--create-namespace \
bazel-buildfarm \
oci://ghcr.io/bazelbuild/buildfarm \
--version "0.2.4"
Forward the port from the k8s cluster to your DevBox:
kubectl port-forward service/bazel-buildfarm-server -n bazel-buildfarm 8980:8980 --address 0.0.0.0
Example
Create the following bazel workspace file structure for testing:
main.cc
#include <iostream>
int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
}
BUILD
cc_binary(
name = "main",
srcs = ["main.cc"],
)
WORKSPACE
Leave this file empty.
Run bazel run :main to verify the build locally.
Remote execution
bazel build --remote_executor=grpc://<your-devbox>:8980 :main
Remote caching
bazel build --remote_cache=grpc://<your-devbox>:8980 :main
