6.0

Please note The lock file format was changed in rules_jvm_external 5.1. If you update and repin your dependencies, your lock file will use the new format.

Usage

This version of rules_jvm_external requires Bazel 5.4.1, Bazel 6.4.0, or Bazel 7 or above.

Bzlmod

If you are using Bazel 7 or above, in your MODULE.bazel file:

bazel_dep(name = "rules_jvm_external", version = "6.0")

To add dependencies, later in your MODULE.bazel file:

maven = use_extension("@rules_jvm_external//:extensions.bzl", "maven")

maven.install(
    artifacts = [
        "org.seleniumhq.selenium:selenium-java:4.16.1",
    ],
    repositories = [
        "https://repo1.maven.org/maven2",
    ],
    lock_file = "//:maven_install.json",
)

use_repo(
    maven,
    "maven",
)

Workspace-based builds

In your WORKSPACE file, add:

load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")

RULES_JVM_EXTERNAL_TAG = "6.0"
RULES_JVM_EXTERNAL_SHA = "85fd6bad58ac76cc3a27c8e051e4255ff9ccd8c92ba879670d195622e7c0a9b7"

http_archive(
    name = "rules_jvm_external",
    strip_prefix = "rules_jvm_external-%s" % RULES_JVM_EXTERNAL_TAG,
    sha256 = RULES_JVM_EXTERNAL_SHA,
    url = "https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_jvm_external/releases/download/%s/rules_jvm_external-%s.tar.gz" % (RULES_JVM_EXTERNAL_TAG, RULES_JVM_EXTERNAL_TAG)
)

load("@rules_jvm_external//:repositories.bzl", "rules_jvm_external_deps")

rules_jvm_external_deps()

load("@rules_jvm_external//:setup.bzl", "rules_jvm_external_setup")

rules_jvm_external_setup()

Then, later in your WORKSPACE file, you can pull in dependencies from a maven repository:

load("@rules_jvm_external//:defs.bzl", "maven_install")

maven_install(
    artifacts = [
        "org.seleniumhq.selenium:selenium-java:4.16.1",
    ],
    repositories = [
        "https://repo1.maven.org/maven2",
    ],
    maven_install_json = "//:maven_install.json",
)

Using dependencies

In your BUILD.bazel file, reference the targets directly:

java_library(
    name = "example",
    exports = [
        "@maven//:org_seleniumhq_selenium_selenium_java",
    ],
)
