Android support in Bazel

Deprecation notice

The master branch of https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_android is now deprecated. Active development has been moved to the 'main' branch. We will leave this branch up for posterity.

Overview

This repository contains the Skylark implementation of Android rules in Bazel.

The rules are being incrementally converted from their native implementations in the Bazel source tree.

For the list of Android rules, see the Bazel documentation.

Getting Started

To use the new Bazel Android rules, add the following to your WORKSPACE file:

load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")
http_archive(
    name = "build_bazel_rules_android",
    urls = ["https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_android/archive/v0.1.1.zip"],
    sha256 = "cd06d15dd8bb59926e4d65f9003bfc20f9da4b2519985c27e190cddc8b7a7806",
    strip_prefix = "rules_android-0.1.1",
)

Then, in your BUILD files, import and use the rules:

load("@build_bazel_rules_android//android:rules.bzl", "android_library")
android_library(
    ...
)
