closure-templates-bazel

Overview

This project provides an extension to Bazel to compile Google Closure Templates files into JavaScript files.

This extension is used in existing BUILD files in your project. For directories that contain .soy files, add the following rule:

load("//path/to/closure_templates", "soy_library")

soy_library(
    name = 'my_soy_library',
    srcs = glob(["*.soy"]),
)

In a terminal, then run the command:

bazel build //path/to/src:my_soy_library

This will generate a .soy.js file for every Soy source file in that directory.

Set up Bazel by following the instructions on the Getting Started page
Put a copy of the SoyToJsSrcCompiler.jar in a tools/ directory in your project.
Put the closure_templates.bzl file somewhere in your project. Every BUILD file that uses Soy will need to load this .bzl file at that path.
Follow Usage instructions.
