Bazel is a powerful build tool that allows you to automate the building and testing of software projects. Artifactory, on the other hand, is a popular artifact repository manager that helps you store, manage, and distribute software packages. In this article, we will guide you on how to upload .py wheel packages to Artifactory using Bazel.
Prerequisites
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
- Bazel installed on your machine. You can download it from the official Bazel website.
- An Artifactory instance set up and accessible.
- A Python project with a .py wheel package ready to be uploaded.
Step 1: Configure Bazel
The first step is to configure Bazel to work with Artifactory. Open your Bazel workspace file (WORKSPACE) and add the following lines:
load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")
http_archive(
name = "artifactory",
strip_prefix = "bazel-artifactory",
urls = ["https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-artifactory/archive/master.zip"],
)
load("@artifactory//:defs.bzl", "artifactory_repositories")
artifactory_repositories()
Save the file and run the following command to fetch the Artifactory dependencies:
bazel sync
Step 2: Create a Bazel Build File
In this step, we will create a Bazel build file (BUILD) that defines the targets for building and uploading the .py wheel package to Artifactory. Create a new file named BUILD in your project's root directory and add the following content:
load("@artifactory//:upload.bzl", "artifactory_wheel")
artifactory_wheel(
name = "my_python_package",
src = ":my_python_package.whl",
repository = "my-artifactory-repo",
package_name = "my_python_package",
package_version = "1.0.0",
)
Make sure to replace "my_python_package" with the actual name of your Python package and "my-artifactory-repo" with the name of your Artifactory repository.
Step 3: Build and Upload
Now that everything is set up, it's time to build and upload the .py wheel package to Artifactory. Run the following command:
bazel build //:my_python_package
This command will build the .py wheel package and create a target named "my_python_package" in the Bazel output directory.
Next, run the following command to upload the package to Artifactory:
bazel run //:my_python_package
After successful execution, the .py wheel package will be uploaded to the specified Artifactory repository.
Step 4: Verify the Upload
To verify that the .py wheel package has been uploaded to Artifactory, you can navigate to your Artifactory instance and check the specified repository. You should see the uploaded package listed there.
Conclusion
In this article, we have learned how to upload .py wheel packages to Artifactory using Bazel. By following the steps outlined above, you can automate the process of building and uploading your Python packages to Artifactory, making it easier to manage and distribute your software.
