Gazelle is a build file generator for Bazel projects. It can create new BUILD.bazel files for a project that follows language conventions, and it can update existing build files to include new sources, dependencies, and options. Gazelle natively supports Go and protobuf, and it may be extended to support new languages and custom rule sets.
Gazelle may be run by Bazel using the gazelle rule, or it may be installed and run as a command line tool. Gazelle can also generate build files for external repositories as part of the go_repository rule.
Gazelle is under active development. Its interface and the rules it generates may change. Gazelle is not an official Google product.

More languages can be added by Extending Gazelle.
Chat with us in the #gazelle
channel on Bazel Slack if you'd like to discuss your design.
If you've written your own extension, please consider open-sourcing it for use by the rest of the community. Note that such extensions belong in a language-specific repository, not in bazel-gazelle. See discussion in #1030.
To use Gazelle in a new project, add the bazel_gazelle
repository and its
dependencies to your WORKSPACE file and call gazelle_dependencies
. It
should look like this:
load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")

gazelle_dependencies()
gazelle_dependencies
supports optional argument go_env
(dict-mapping)
to set project specific go environment variables. If you are using a
WORKSPACE.bazel file, you will need to specify that using:
gazelle_dependencies(go_repository_default_config = "//:WORKSPACE.bazel")
Add the code below to the BUILD or BUILD.bazel file in the root directory of your repository.
Important: For Go projects, replace the string after prefix
with
the portion of your import path that corresponds to your repository.
load("@bazel_gazelle//:def.bzl", "gazelle")
# gazelle:prefix github.com/example/project
gazelle(name = "gazelle")
After adding this code, you can run Gazelle with Bazel.
$ bazel run //:gazelle
This will generate new BUILD.bazel files for your project. You can run the same command in the future to update existing BUILD.bazel files to include new source files or options.
You can write other gazelle
rules to run alternate commands like update-repos
.
gazelle(
name = "gazelle-update-repos",
args = [
"-from_file=go.mod",
"-to_macro=deps.bzl%go_dependencies",
"-prune",
],
command = "update-repos",
)
You can also pass additional arguments to Gazelle after a --
argument.
$ bazel run //:gazelle -- update-repos -from_file=go.mod -to_macro=deps.bzl%go_dependencies
After running update-repos
, you might want to run bazel run //:gazelle
again, as the
update-repos
command can affect the output of a normal run of Gazelle.
If you have a Go toolchain installed, you can install Gazelle with the command below:
go install github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-gazelle/cmd/gazelle@latest
Make sure to re-run this command to upgrade Gazelle whenever you upgrade rules_go in your repository.
To generate BUILD.bazel files in a new project, run the command below, replacing the prefix with the portion of your import path that corresponds to your repository.
gazelle -go_prefix github.com/example/project
Most of Gazelle's command-line arguments can be expressed as special comments
in build files. See Directives below. You may want to copy this line into
your root build files to avoid having to type -go_prefix
every time.
# gazelle:prefix github.com/example/project
Gazelle is compatible with supported releases of Go, per the Go Release Policy. The Go Team officially supports the current and previous minor releases. Older releases are not supported and don't receive bug fixes or security updates.
Gazelle may use language and library features from the oldest supported release.
Gazelle generates build files that use features in newer versions of
rules_go
. Newer versions of Gazelle may generate build files that work
with older versions of rules_go
, but check the table below to ensure
you're using a compatible version.

gazelle <command> [flags...] [package-dirs...]
The first argument to Gazelle may be one of the commands below. If no command
is specified, update
is assumed. The remaining arguments are specific
to each command and are documented below.
- update
- Scans sources files, then generates and updates build files.
- fix
- Same as the
update
command, but it also fixes deprecated usage of rules. - update-repos
- Adds and updates repository rules in the WORKSPACE file.
Gazelle may be run via a rule. See Running Gazelle with Bazel for setup
instructions. This rule builds Gazelle and generates a wrapper script that
executes Gazelle with baked-in set of arguments. You can run this script
with bazel run
, or you can copy it into your workspace and run it directly.
The following attributes are available on the gazelle
rule.
Name | Type | Default value |
---|---|---|
gazelle | label | @bazel_gazelle//cmd/gazelle |
The gazelle_binary rule that builds Gazelle. You can substitute a modified version of Gazelle with this. See Extending Gazelle. | ||
external | string | external |
The method for resolving unknown imports to Bazel dependencies. May be
external , static or vendored .
See Dependency resolution. |
||
build_tags | string_list | [] |
The list of Go build tags that Gazelle should consider to always be true. | ||
prefix | string | "" |
The import path that corresponds to the repository root directory. Note: It's usually better to write a directive like
|
||
extra_args | string_list | [] |
A list of extra command line arguments passed to Gazelle. Note that
extra_args are suppressed by extra command line args (e.g.
bazel run //:gazelle -- subdir ).
See bazel-contrib#536 for explanation. |
||
command | string | update |
The Gazelle command to use. May be fix , update or
update-repos . |
The update
command is the most common way of running Gazelle. Gazelle
scans sources in directories throughout the repository, then creates and updates
build files.
The fix
command does everything update
does, but it also fixes
deprecated usage of rules, analogous to go fix
. For example, cgo_library
will be consolidated with go_library
. This command may delete or rename
rules, so it's not on by default. See Fix command transformations
for details.
Both commands accept a list of directories to process as positional arguments. If no directories are specified, Gazelle will process the current directory. Subdirectories will be processed recursively.
The following flags are accepted:
The update-repos
command updates repository rules. It can write the rules
to either the WORKSPACE (by default) or a .bzl file macro function. It can be
used to add new repository rules or update existing rules to the specified
version. It can also import repository rules from a go.mod
or a go.work
file.
# Add or update a repository to latest version by import path
$ gazelle update-repos example.com/new/repo
# Add or update a repository to specified version/commit by import path
$ gazelle update-repos example.com/new/[email protected]
# Import repositories from go.mod
$ gazelle update-repos -from_file=go.mod
# Import repositories from go.work
$ gazelle update-repos -from_file=go.work
# Import repositories from go.mod and update macro
$ gazelle update-repos -from_file=go.mod -to_macro=repositories.bzl%go_repositories
# Import repositories from go.work and update macro
$ gazelle update-repos -from_file=go.work -to_macro=repositories.bzl%go_repositories
The following flags are accepted:
Name | Default value |
---|---|
-from_file lock-file |
|
Import repositories from a file as go_repository rules. These rules will be added to the bottom of the WORKSPACE file or merged with existing rules. The lock file format is inferred from the file name. |
|
-repo_root dir |
|
The root directory of the repository. Gazelle normally infers this to be the directory containing the WORKSPACE file. Gazelle will not process packages outside this directory. |
|
-to_macro macroFile%defName |
|
Tells Gazelle to write new repository rules into a .bzl macro function rather than the WORKSPACE file. The |
|
-prune true|false |
false |
When true, Gazelle will remove go_repository rules that no longer have equivalent repos in the This flag can only be used with |
|
-build_directives arg1,arg2,... |
|
Sets the build_directives attribute for the generated go_repository rule(s). |
|
-build_external external|vendored |
|
Sets the build_external attribute for the generated go_repository rule(s). |
|
-build_extra_args arg1,arg2,... |
|
Sets the build_extra_args attribute for the generated go_repository rule(s). |
|
-build_file_generation auto|on|off |
|
Sets the build_file_generation attribute for the generated go_repository rule(s). |
|
-build_file_names file1,file2,... |
|
Sets the build_file_name attribute for the generated go_repository rule(s). |
|
-build_file_proto_mode default|package|legacy|disable|disable_global |
|
Sets the build_file_proto_mode attribute for the generated go_repository rule(s). |
|
-build_tags tag1,tag2,... |
|
Sets the build_tags attribute for the generated go_repository rule(s). |
Gazelle can be configured with directives, which are written as top-level comments in build files. Most options that can be set on the command line can also be set using directives. Some options can only be set with directives.
Directive comments have the form # gazelle:key value
. For example:
load("@io_bazel_rules_go//go:def.bzl", "go_library")
# gazelle:prefix github.com/example/project
# gazelle:build_file_name BUILD,BUILD.bazel
go_library(
name = "go_default_library",
srcs = ["example.go"],
importpath = "github.com/example/project",
visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
)
Directives apply in the directory where they are set and in subdirectories.
This means, for example, if you set # gazelle:prefix
in the build file
in your project's root directory, it affects your whole project. If you
set it in a subdirectory, it only affects rules in that subtree.
The following directives are recognized:
Directive | Default value | |
---|---|---|
# gazelle:build_file_name names |
BUILD.bazel,BUILD |
|
Comma-separated list of file names. Gazelle recognizes these files as Bazel
build files. New files will use the first name in this list. Use this if
your project contains non-Bazel files named BUILD (or build on
case-insensitive file systems). |
||
# gazelle:build_tags foo,bar |
none | |
List of Go build tags Gazelle will consider to be true. Gazelle applies
constraints when generating Go rules. It assumes certain tags are true on
certain platforms (for example, Bazel may still filter sources with these tags. Use
|
||
# gazelle:exclude pattern |
n/a | |
Prevents Gazelle from processing a file or directory if the given doublestar.Match pattern matches. If the pattern refers to a source file, Gazelle won't include it in any rules. If the pattern refers to a directory, Gazelle won't recurse into it. This directive may be repeated to exclude multiple patterns, one per line. | ||
# gazelle:follow pattern |
n/a | |
Instructs Gazelle to follow a symbolic link to a directory within the repository if the given doublestar.Match pattern matches. Normally, Gazelle does not follow symbolic links unless they point outside of the repository root. Care must be taken to avoid visiting a directory more than once.
The |
||
# gazelle:go_generate_proto |
true |
|
Instructs Gazelle's Go extension whether to generate go_proto_library rules for
proto_library rules generated by the Proto extension. When this directive is true
Gazelle will generate go_proto_library and go_library according to
# gazelle:proto . When this directive is false , the Go extension will ignore any
proto_library rules. If there are any pre-generated Go files, they will be treated as
regular Go files. |
||
# gazelle:go_test mode |
default |
|
Tells Gazelle how to generate rules for _test.go files. Valid values are:
|
||
# gazelle:go_grpc_compilers |
@io_bazel_rules_go//proto:go_grpc |
|
The protocol buffers compiler(s) to use for building go bindings for gRPC.
Multiple compilers, separated by commas, may be specified.
Omit the directive value to reset See Predefined plugins for available options; commonly used options include
|
||
# gazelle:go_naming_convention |
inferred automatically | |
Controls the names of generated Go targets. Valid values are:
If no naming convention is set, Gazelle attempts to infer the convention in
use by reading the root build file and build files in immediate
subdirectories. If no Go targets are found, Gazelle defaults to |
||
# gazelle:go_naming_convention_external |
n/a | |
Controls the default naming convention used when resolving libraries in
external repositories with unknown naming conventions. Accepts the same values
as go_naming_convention . |
||
# gazelle:go_proto_compilers |
@io_bazel_rules_go//proto:go_proto |
|
The protocol buffers compiler(s) to use for building go bindings.
Multiple compilers, separated by commas, may be specified.
Omit the directive value to reset See Predefined plugins for available options; commonly used options include
|
||
# gazelle:ignore |
n/a | |
Prevents Gazelle from modifying the build file. Gazelle will still read rules in the build file and may modify build files in subdirectories. | ||
# gazelle:importmap_prefix path |
See below | |
A prefix for
As a special case, when Gazelle enters a directory named |
||
# gazelle:map_kind from_kind to_kind to_kind_load |
n/a | |
Customizes the kind of rules generated by Gazelle. As a separate step after generating rules, any new rules of kind Most commonly, this would be used to replace the rules provided by Existing rules of the old kind will be ignored. To switch your codebase from a builtin kind to a mapped kind, use buildozer. |
||
# gazelle:prefix path |
n/a | |
A prefix for As a special case, when Gazelle enters a directory named |
||
# gazelle:proto mode |
default |
|
Tells Gazelle how to generate rules for .proto files. Valid values are:
This directive applies to the current directory and subdirectories. As a
special case, when Gazelle enters a directory named |
||
# gazelle:proto_group option |
"" |
|
This directive is only effective in Specifies an option that Gazelle can use to group .proto files into rules.
For example, when set to When this directive is set to the empty string, Gazelle will group packages by their proto package statement. Rule names are generated based on the last run of identifier characters
in the package name. For example, if the package is |
||
# gazelle:proto_import_prefix path |
n/a | |
Sets the import_prefix attribute of generated For example, if the target |
||
# gazelle:proto_strip_import_prefix path |
n/a | |
Sets the strip_import_prefix attribute of generated If the prefix starts with a slash, it's intepreted relative to the repository
root. Otherwise, it's relative to the directory containing the build file.
The package-relative form is only useful when a single build file covers
For example, if the target |
||
# gazelle:resolve ... |
n/a | |
Specifies an explicit mapping from an import string to a label for Dependency resolution. The format for a resolve directive is:
For example: # gazelle:resolve go example.com/foo //foo:go_default_library
# gazelle:resolve proto go foo/foo.proto //foo:foo_go_proto |
||
# gazelle:resolve_regexp ... |
n/a | |
Specifies an explicit mapping from an import regex to a label for Dependency resolution. The format for a resolve directive is:
Specifies an explicit mapping from an import regex to a label for Dependency resolution. The format for a resolve directive is:
For example: # gazelle:resolve_regexp go example.com/.* //foo:go_default_library
# gazelle:resolve_regexp proto go foo/.*\.proto //foo:foo_go_proto |
||
# gazelle:go_visibility label |
n/a | |
By default, internal packages are only visible to its siblings. This directive adds a label internal packages should be visible to additionally. This directive can be used several times, adding a list of labels. | ||
# gazelle:lang lang1,lang2,... |
n/a | |
Sets the language selection flag for this and descendent packages, which causes gazelle to index and generate rules for only the languages named in this directive. | ||
# gazelle:default_visibility visibility |
n/a | |
Comma-separated list of visibility specifications. This directive adds the visibility specifications for this and descendant packages. For example: # gazelle:default_visibility //foo:__subpackages__,//src:__subpackages__ |
Gazelle also reads directives from the WORKSPACE file. They may be used to
discover custom repository names and known prefixes. The fix
and update
commands use these directives for dependency resolution. update-repos
uses
them to learn about repository rules defined in alternate locations.
WORKSPACE Directive | Default value |
---|---|
# gazelle:repository_macro [+]macroFile%defName |
n/a |
Tells Gazelle to look for repository rules in a macro in a .bzl file. The directive can be
repeated multiple times.
The macro can be generated by calling The directive can be prepended with a "+", which will tell Gazelle to also look for repositories within any macros called by the specified macro. |
|
# gazelle:repository rule_kind attr1_name=attr1_value ... |
n/a |
Specifies a repository rule that Gazelle should know about. The directive can be repeated multiple times, and can be declared from within a macro definition that Gazelle knows about. At the very least the directive must define a rule kind and a name attribute, but it can define extra attributes after that. This is useful for teaching Gazelle about repos declared in external macros. The directive can also be used
to override an actual repository rule. For example, a # gazelle:repository go_repository name=org_golang_x_tools importpath=golang.org/x/tools Gazelle would then proceed as if |
In addition to directives, Gazelle supports # keep
comments that protect
parts of build files from being modified. # keep
may be written before
a rule, before an attribute, or after a string within a list.
# keep
comments might take one of 2 forms; the # keep
literal or a
description prefixed by ``# keep: ``.
Suppose you have a library that includes a generated .go file. Gazelle won't
know what imports to resolve, so you may need to add dependencies manually with
# keep
comments.
load("@io_bazel_rules_go//go:def.bzl", "go_library")
load("@com_github_example_gen//:gen.bzl", "gen_go_file")
gen_go_file(
name = "magic",
srcs = ["magic.go.in"],
outs = ["magic.go"],
)
go_library(
name = "go_default_library",
srcs = ["magic.go"],
visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
deps = [
"@com_github_example_gen//:go_default_library", # keep
"@com_github_example_gen//a/b/c:go_default_library", # keep: this is also important
],
)
One of Gazelle's most important jobs is resolving library import strings
(like import "golang.org/x/sys/unix"
) to Bazel labels (like
@org_golang_x_sys//unix:go_default_library
). Gazelle follows the rules
below to resolve dependencies:
- If the import to be resolved is part of a standard library, no explicit
dependency is written. For example, in Go, you don't need to declare
that you depend on
"fmt"
. - If a
# gazelle:resolve
directive matches the import to be resolved, the label at the end of the directive will be used. - If proto rule generation is enabled, special rules will be used when
importing certain libraries. These rules may be disabled by adding
# gazelle:proto disable_global
to a build file (this will affect subdirectories, too) or by passing-proto disable_global
on the command line.- Imports of Well Known Types are mapped to rules in
@io_bazel_rules_go//proto/wkt
. - Imports of Google APIs are mapped to
@go_googleapis
. - Imports of
github.com/golang/protobuf/ptypes
,descriptor
, andjsonpb
are mapped to special rules in@com_github_golang_protobuf
. See Avoiding conflicts with proto rules.
- Imports of Well Known Types are mapped to rules in
- If the import to be resolved is in the library index, the import will be resolved
to that library. If
-index=true
, Gazelle builds an index of library rules in the current repository before starting dependency resolution, and this is how most dependencies are resolved.- For Go, the match is based on the
importpath
attribute. - For proto, the match is based on the
srcs
attribute.
- For Go, the match is based on the
- If
-index=false
and a package is imported that has the currentgo_prefix
as a prefix, Gazelle generates a label following a convention. For example, if the build file in//src
set the prefix with# gazelle:prefix example.com/repo/foo
, and you import the library"example.com/repo/foo/bar
, the dependency will be"//src/foo/bar:go_default_library"
. - Otherwise, Gazelle will use the current
external
mode to resolve the dependency.- In
external
mode (the default), Gazelle will transform the import string into an external repository label. For example,"golang.org/x/sys/unix"
would be resolved to"@org_golang_x_sys//unix:go_default_library"
. Gazelle does not confirm whether the external repository is actually declared in WORKSPACE, but if there is ago_repository
in WORKSPACE with a matchingimportpath
, Gazelle will use its name. Gazelle does not index rules in external repositories, so it's possible the resolved dependency does not exist. - In
static
mode, Gazelle has the same behavior asexternal
mode, except that it will not call out to the network for resolution when no matching import is found within WORKSPACE. Instead, it will skip the unknown import. This is the default mode forgo_repository
rules. - In
vendored
mode, Gazelle will transform the import string into a label in the vendor directory. For example,"golang.org/x/sys/unix"
would be resolved to"//vendor/golang.org/x/sys/unix:go_default_library"
. This mode is usually not necessary, since vendored libraries will be indexed and resolved using rule 4.
- In
Gazelle will generate and update build files when invoked with either
gazelle update
or gazelle fix
(update
is the default). Both commands
perform several transformations to fix deprecated usage of the Go rules.
update
performs a safe set of tranformations, while fix
performs some
additional transformations that may delete or rename rules.
The following transformations are performed:
Migrate library to embed (fix and update): Gazelle replaces library
attributes with embed
attributes.
Migrate gRPC compilers (fix and update): Gazelle converts
go_grpc_library
rules to go_proto_library
rules with
compilers = ["@io_bazel_rules_go//proto:go_grpc"]
.
Flatten srcs (fix and update): Gazelle converts srcs
attributes that
use OS and architecture-specific select
expressions to flat lists.
rules_go filters these sources anyway.
Squash cgo libraries (fix only): Gazelle will remove cgo_library rules
named cgo_default_library
and merge their attributes with a go_library
rule in the same package named go_default_library
. If no such go_library
rule exists, a new one will be created. Other cgo_library
rules will not be
removed.
Squash external tests (fix only): Gazelle will squash go_test
rules
named go_default_xtest
into go_default_test
. Earlier versions of
rules_go required internal and external tests to be built separately, but
this is no longer needed.
Remove legacy protos (fix only): Gazelle will remove usage of
go_proto_library
rules loaded from
@io_bazel_rules_go//proto:go_proto_library.bzl
and filegroup
rules named
go_default_library_protos
. Newly generated proto rules will take their
place. Since filegroup
isn't needed anymore and go_proto_library
has
different attributes and was always written by hand, Gazelle will not attempt to
merge anything from these rules with the newly generated rules.
This transformation is only applied in the default proto mode. Since Gazelle
will run in legacy proto mode if go_proto_library.bzl
is loaded, this
transformation is not usually applied. You can set the proto mode explicitly
using the directive # gazelle:proto default
.
Update loads of gazelle rule (fix and update): Gazelle will remove loads
of gazelle
