v0.29.0

Changes

• nogo analyzers may now depend on go_library rules (#2922).

  This is a major upgrade to nogo usability that enables the use of
  the popular staticcheck tool, via
  https://github.com/sluongng/staticcheck-codegen.

  This requires an update to Gazelle v0.24

  Many thanks to @thomas-wk

• Editor / IDE integration (gopackagesdriver) now supports automatic target detection (#2932).

  No user input is required after the GOPACKAGESDRIVER setup.
  This effectively deprecates the following environment variables:

  • GOPACKAGESDRIVER_BAZEL_TARGETS
  • GOPACKAGESDRIVER_BAZEL_QUERY
  • GOPACKAGESDRIVER_BAZEL_TAG_FILTERS

  Many thanks to @steeve for his ongoing development of gopackagesdriver

• The rules_cc dependency has been removed (#2950).

• rules_go tool builds are now reproducible (#2952).

• cgo-related bug fixes: #2930, #2925, #2947, #2926.

Thanks to all of the contributors.

Compatibility

• Bazel 4.2.0 or higher is now required. The previous minimum version
  was 4.0.0.

Updated dependencies

As always, you can use higher versions of rules_go's dependencies by declaring
them in WORKSPACE before calling go_rules_dependencies. Lower versions may
work but are not supported.

• bazel_skylib updated to v1.1.1
• org_golang_x_tools updated to v0.1.7
• org_golang_x_sys updated to master as of 2021-10-06.
• org_golang_google_genproto updated to master as of 2021-10-06.
• go_googleapis updated to master as of 2021-10-06.

v0.28.0

Changes

• Experimental editor / IDE integration added in the form of a
  gopackagesdriver tool that reports information about the Bazel workspace
  to gopls (or any other tool based on golang.org/x/tools/go/packages).
  See the Editor setup
  on the wiki for information and setup instructions. Huge thanks to @steeve
  for shipping this.
• Target platform may be automatically inferred from --crosstool_top and
  --cpu for iOS and Android platforms that still require these flags.
  Again, thanks to @steeve.
• go_proto_library no longer implicitly depends on APIv1 Well Known Type
  packages. Since protoc 3.14, the Well Known Types declare APIv2 package paths,
  which means generated code that imports them will import APIv2 packages,
  so the APIv1 dependencies are unnecessary.

Compatibility

• Bazel 4.0.0 (LTS) or higher is now required. The previous minimum version
  was 3.5.0.

Updated dependencies

As always, you can use higher versions of rules_go's dependencies by declaring
them in WORKSPACE before calling go_rules_dependencies. Lower versions may
work but are not supported.

• org_golang_x_tools updated to v0.1.4

v0.27.0

Updated dependencies

This release updates golang.org/x/tools, which was mistakenly not updated in v0.26.0. Additionally, the latest version of golang.org/x/tools requires golang.org/x/sys/execabs, so that module is added as a new dependency.

As always, you can use higher versions of rules_go's dependencies by declaring them in WORKSPACE before calling go_rules_dependencies. Lower versions may work but are not supported.

• org_golang_x_tools is updated to v0.1.0.
• org_golang_x_sys is added at master as of 2021-03-17.

v0.26.0

Changes

• //go:embed directives are supported in Go 1.16. Patterns are matched against both static and generated files, including directory artifacts. Embeddable files must be listed in the new embedsrcs attribute. Gazelle v0.23.0 will generate these attributes automatically.
• go_binary now provides CcInfo in the c-archive and c-shared link modes. This should let cc_library and other rules reference these targets through deps directly. Thanks @steeve.
• TEST_TMPDIR is no longer set to TMPDIR in tests. Thanks @mikedanese.
• Several small improvements in error and diagnostic output.

Compatibility

• Bazel 3.5.0 is now required. The previous minimum version was 3.4.0.

Bug fixes

• Fixed an issue in go_test with capturing XML output when changing directories.
• Paths in error messages are now relativized. This should reduce noise from Bazel sandbox directories. (thanks @robfig)
• go_local_sdk provides better error messages when Go is built for multiple platforms. (thanks @prattmic)
• Multiple compatibility fixes for Go 1.16beta1.
