These attributes are used in several rules within this module.
ATTRIBUTES
Name | Description | Type | Mandatory | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
out | Name of the output file. This file will always be created and used to access the package content. If package_file_name is also specified, out will be a symlink. |
String | required | |
package_file_name | The name of the file which will contain the package. The name may contain variables in the forms {var} and $(var). The values for substitution are specified through package_variables` or taken from ctx.var. |
String | optional | package type specific |
package_variables | A target that provides PackageVariablesInfo to substitute into package_file_name . pkg_zip and pkg_tar also support this in package_dir |
Label | optional | None |
attributes | Attributes to set on entities created within packages. Not to be confused with bazel rule attributes. See 'Mapping "Attributes"' below | Undefined. | optional | Varies. Consult individual rule documentation for details. |
See
examples/naming_package_files
for examples of how out
, package_file_name
, and package_variables
interact.
The "attributes" attribute specifies properties of package contents as used in
rules such as pkg_files
, and pkg_mkdirs
. These allow fine-grained control
of the contents of your package. For example:
attributes = pkg_attributes(
mode = "0644",
user = "root",
group = "wheel",
my_custom_attribute = "some custom value",
)
mode
, user
, and group
correspond to common UNIX-style filesystem
permissions. Attributes should always be specified using the pkg_attributes
helper macro.
Each mapping rule has some default mapping attributes. At this time, the only default is "mode", which will be set if it is not otherwise overridden by the user.
If user
and group
are not specified, then defaults for them will be chosen
by the underlying package builder. Any specific behavior from package builders
should not be relied upon.
Any other attributes should be specified as additional arguments to
pkg_attributes
.
Rule for creating Debian packages.
pkg_deb(name, data, out, architecture, architecture_file, breaks, built_using, built_using_file, changelog, conffiles, conffiles_file, config, conflicts, depends, depends_file, description, description_file, distribution, enhances, homepage, license, maintainer, package, package_file_name, package_variables, postinst, postrm, predepends, preinst, prerm, priority, provides, recommends, replaces, section, suggests, templates, triggers, urgency, version, version_file)
Create a Debian package.
This rule produces 2 artifacts: a .deb and a .changes file. The DefaultInfo will
include both. If you need downstream rule to specifically depend on only the .deb or
.changes file then you can use filegroup
to select distinct output groups.
OutputGroupInfo

the package with any precise file name created withpackage_file_name
.changes
the .changes file.

Provides rules for creating RPM packages via pkg_filegroup and friends.
pkg_rpm() depends on the existence of an rpmbuild toolchain. Many users will find to convenient to use the one provided with their system. To enable that toolchain add the following stanza to WORKSPACE:
# Find rpmbuild if it exists.
load("@rules_pkg//toolchains/rpm:rpmbuild_configure.bzl", "find_system_rpmbuild")
find_system_rpmbuild(name="rules_pkg_rpmbuild")
pkg_sub_rpm(name, srcs, architecture, conflicts, description, epoch, group, obsoletes, package_name, post_scriptlet, provides, requires, summary, version)
Define a sub RPM to be built as part of a parent RPM
This rule uses the outputs of the rules in mappings.bzl
to define an sub
RPM that will be built as part of a larger RPM defined by a pkg_rpm
instance.

Creates an RPM format package via pkg_filegroup
and friends.
The uses the outputs of the rules in mappings.bzl
to construct arbitrary
RPM packages. Attributes of this rule provide preamble information and
scriptlets, which are then used to compose a valid RPM spec file.
This rule will fail at analysis time if:
- Any
srcs
input creates the same destination, regardless of other attributes.
This rule only functions on UNIXy platforms. The following tools must be available on your system for this to function properly:
-
rpmbuild
(as specified inrpmbuild_path
, or available in$PATH
) -
GNU coreutils. BSD coreutils may work, but are not tested.
To set RPM file attributes (like %config
and friends), set the
rpm_filetag
in corresponding packaging rule (pkg_files
, etc). The value
is prepended with "%" and added to the %files
list, for example:
attrs = {"rpm_filetag": ("config(missingok, noreplace)",)},
Is the equivalent to %config(missingok, noreplace)
in the %files
list.
This rule produces 2 artifacts: an .rpm and a .changes file. The DefaultInfo will
include both. If you need downstream rule to specifically depend on only the .rpm or
.changes file then you can use filegroup
to select distinct output groups.
OutputGroupInfo
out
the RPM or a symlink to the actual package.rpm
the package with any precise file name created withpackage_file_name
.changes
the .changes file.

List of labels | required | |
architecture | Package architecture. This currently sets the BuildArch tag, which influences the output architecture of the package.Typically, BuildArch only needs to be set when the package is known to be cross-platform (e.g. written in an interpreted language), or, less common, when it is known that the application is only valid for specific architectures.When no attribute is provided, this will default to your host's architecture. This is usually what you want. |
String | optional | "" |
binary_payload_compression | Compression mode used for this RPM Must be a form that rpmbuild(8) knows how to process, which will depend on the version of rpmbuild in use. The value corresponds to the %_binary_payload macro and is set on the rpmbuild(8) command line if provided.Some examples of valid values (which may not be supported on your system) can be found here. On CentOS systems (also likely Red Hat and Fedora), you can find some supported values by looking for %_binary_payload in /usr/lib/rpm/macros . Other systems have similar files and configurations.If not provided, the compression mode will be computed by rpmbuild itself. Defaults may vary per distribution or build of rpm ; consult the relevant documentation for more details.WARNING: Bazel is currently not aware of action threading requirements for non-test actions. Using threaded compression may result in overcommitting your system. |

Package creation helper mapping rules.
This module declares Provider interfaces and rules for specifying the contents of packages in a package-type-agnostic way. The main rules supported here are the following:
pkg_files
describes destinations for rule outputspkg_mkdirs
describes directory structurespkg_mklink
describes symbolic linkspkg_filegroup
creates groupings of above to add to packages
Rules that actually make use of the outputs of the above rules are not specified here.
filter_directory(name, src, excludes, outdir_name, prefix, renames, strip_prefix)
Transform directories (TreeArtifacts) using pkg_filegroup-like semantics.
Effective order of operations:
- Files are
exclude
d renames
orstrip_prefix
is applied.prefix
is applied
In particular, if a rename
applies to an individual file, strip_prefix
will not be applied to that particular file.
Each non-`rename``d path will look like this:
$OUTPUT_DIR/$PREFIX/$FILE_WITHOUT_STRIP_PREFIX
Each rename
d path will look like this:
$OUTPUT_DIR/$PREFIX/$FILE_RENAMED
If an operation cannot be applied (strip_prefix
) to any component in the
directory, or if one is unused (exclude
, rename
), the underlying command
will fail. See the individual attributes for details.
ATTRIBUTES
Name | Description | Type | Mandatory | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
name | A unique name for this target. | Name | required | |
src | Directory (TreeArtifact) to process. | Label | required | |
excludes | Files to exclude from the output directory. Each element must refer to an individual file in src .All exclusions must be used. |
List of strings | optional | [] |
outdir_name | Name of output directory (otherwise defaults to the rule's name) | String | optional | "" |
prefix | Prefix to add to all paths in the output directory. This does not include the output directory name, which will be added regardless. |
String | optional | "" |
renames | Files to rename in the output directory. Keys are destinations, values are sources prior to any path modifications (e.g. via prefix or strip_prefix ). Files that are exclude d must not be renamed.This currently only operates on individual files. strip_prefix does not apply to them.All renames must be used. |
Dictionary: String -> String | optional | {} |
strip_prefix | Prefix to remove from all paths in the output directory. Must apply to all paths in the directory, even those rename'd. |
String | optional | "" |
pkg_filegroup(name, srcs, prefix)
Package contents grouping rule.
This rule represents a collection of packaging specifications (e.g. those
created by pkg_files
, pkg_mklink
, etc.) that have something in common,
such as a prefix or a human-readable category.
ATTRIBUTES
Name | Description | Type | Mandatory | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
name | A unique name for this target. | Name | required | |
srcs | A list of packaging specifications to be grouped together. | List of labels | required | |
prefix | A prefix to prepend to provided paths, applied like so: - For files and directories, this is simply prepended to the destination - For symbolic links, this is prepended to the "destination" part. |
String | optional | "" |
pkg_files(name, srcs, attributes, excludes, include_runfiles, prefix, renames, strip_prefix)
General-purpose package target-to-destination mapping rule.
This rule provides a specification for the locations and attributes of
targets when they are packaged. No outputs are created other than Providers
that are intended to be consumed by other packaging rules, such as
pkg_rpm
. pkg_files
targets may be consumed by other pkg_files
or
pkg_filegroup
to build up complex layouts, or directly by top level
packaging rules such as pkg_files
.
Consumers of pkg_files
s will, where possible, create the necessary
directory structure for your files so you do not have to unless you have
special requirements. Consult pkg_mkdirs

Name | Description | Type | Mandatory | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
name | A unique name for this target. | Name | required | |
srcs | Files/Labels to include in the outputs of these rules | List of labels | required | |
attributes | Attributes to set on packaged files. Always use pkg_attributes() to set this rule attribute.If not otherwise overridden, the file's mode will be set to UNIX "0644", or the target platform's equivalent. Consult the "Mapping Attributes" documentation in the rules_pkg reference for more details. |
String | optional | "{}" |
excludes | List of files or labels to exclude from the inputs to this rule. Mostly useful for removing files from generated outputs or preexisting filegroup s. |
List of labels | optional | [] |
include_runfiles | Add runfiles for all srcs. The runfiles are in the paths that Bazel uses. For example, for the target //my_prog:foo , we would see files under paths like foo.runfiles/<repo name>/my_prog/<file> |
Boolean | optional | False |
prefix | Installation prefix. This may be an arbitrary string, but it should be understandable by the packaging system you are using to have the desired outcome. For example, RPM macros like %{_libdir} may work correctly in paths for RPM packages, not, say, Debian packages.If any part of the directory structure of the computed destination of a file provided to pkg_filegroup or any similar rule does not already exist within a package, the package builder will create it for you with a reasonable set of default permissions (typically 0755 root.root ).It is possible to establish directory structures with arbitrary permissions using pkg_mkdirs . |
String | optional | "" |
renames | Destination override map. This attribute allows the user to override destinations of files in pkg_file s relative to the prefix attribute. Keys to the dict are source files/labels, values are destinations relative to the prefix , ignoring whatever value was provided for strip_prefix .If the key refers to a TreeArtifact (directory output), you may specify the constant REMOVE_BASE_DIRECTORY as the value, which will result in all containing files and directories being installed relative to the otherwise specified install prefix (via the prefix and strip_prefix attributes), not the directory name.The following keys are rejected: - Any label that expands to more than one file (mappings must be one-to-one). - Any label or file that was either not provided or explicitly exclude d.The following values result in undefined behavior: - "" (the empty string) - "." - Anything containing ".." |
Dictionary: Label -> String | optional | {} |
strip_prefix | What prefix of a file's path to discard prior to installation. This specifies what prefix of an incoming file's path should not be included in the output package at after being appended to the install prefix (the prefix attribute). Note that this is only applied to full directory names, see strip_prefix for more details.Use the strip_prefix struct to define this attribute. If this attribute is not specified, all directories will be stripped from all files prior to being included in packages (strip_prefix.files_only() ).If prefix stripping fails on any file provided in srcs , the build will fail.Note that this only functions on paths that are known at analysis time. Specifically, this will not consider directories within TreeArtifacts (directory outputs), or the directories themselves. See also #269. |
String | optional | "." |
pkg_mkdirs(name, attributes, dirs)
Defines creation and ownership of directories in packages
Use this if:
-
You need to create an empty directory in your package.
-
Your package needs to explicitly own a directory, even if it already owns files in those directories.
-
You need nonstandard permissions (typically, not "0755") on a directory in your package.
For some package management systems (e.g. RPM), directory ownership (2) may imply additional semantics. Consult your package manager's and target distribution's documentation for more details.
ATTRIBUTES
Name | Description | Type | Mandatory | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
name | A unique name for this target. | Name | required | |
attributes | Attributes to set on packaged directories. Always use pkg_attributes() to set this rule attribute.If not otherwise overridden, the directory's mode will be set to UNIX "0755", or the target platform's equivalent. Consult the "Mapping Attributes" documentation in the rules_pkg reference for more details. |
String | optional | "{}" |
dirs | Directory names to make within the package If any part of the requested directory structure does not already exist within a package, the package builder will create it for you with a reasonable set of default permissions (typically 0755 root.root ). |
List of strings | required |
pkg_mklink_impl(name, attributes, link_name, target)
Define a symlink within packages
This rule results in the creation of a single link within a package.
Symbolic links specified by this rule may point at files/directories outside of the package, or otherwise left dangling.
ATTRIBUTES
Name | Description | Type | Mandatory | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
name | A unique name for this target. | Name | required | |
attributes | Attributes to set on packaged symbolic links. Always use pkg_attributes() to set this rule attribute.Symlink permissions may have different meanings depending on your host operating system; consult its documentation for more details. If not otherwise overridden, the link's mode will be set to UNIX "0777", or the target platform's equivalent. Consult the "Mapping Attributes" documentation in the rules_pkg reference for more details. |
String | optional | "{}" |
link_name | Link "destination", a path within the package. This is the actual created symbolic link. If the directory structure provided by this attribute is not otherwise created when exist within the package when it is built, it will be created implicitly, much like with pkg_files .This path may be prefixed or rooted by grouping or packaging rules. |
String | required | |
target | Link "target", a path on the filesystem. This is what the link "points" to, and may point to an arbitrary filesystem path, even relative paths. |
String | required |
pkg_attributes(mode, user, group, uid, gid, kwargs)
Format attributes for use in package mapping rules.
If "mode" is not provided, it will default to the mapping rule's default mode. These vary per mapping rule; consult the respective documentation for more details.
Not providing any of "user", "group", "uid", or "gid" will result in the package builder choosing one for you. The chosen value should not be relied upon.
Well-known attributes outside of the above are documented in the rules_pkg reference.
This is the only supported means of passing in attributes to package mapping
rules (e.g. pkg_files
).
PARAMETERS
RETURNS
A value usable in the "attributes" attribute in package mapping rules.

Rules to create RPM archives.
NOTE: this module is deprecated in favor of pkg/rpm_pfg.bzl. For more
information on the pkg_filegroup
framework it uses, see pkg/mappings.bzl.
pkg_rpm() depends on the existence of an rpmbuild toolchain. Many users will find to convenient to use the one provided with their system. To enable that toolchain add the following stanza to WORKSPACE:
# Find rpmbuild if it exists.
load("@rules_pkg//toolchains/rpm:rpmbuild_configure.bzl", "find_system_rpmbuild")
find_system_rpmbuild(name="rules_pkg_rpmbuild")
pkg_rpm(name, data, architecture, changelog, debug, release, release_file, rpmbuild_path, source_date_epoch, source_date_epoch_file, spec_file, version, version_file)
Legacy version
