Http Utils

http_binary

http_binary(name, build_file, build_file_content, integrity, output, repo_mapping, sha256, url)

This rule works like http_file, but for binaries.

http_binary(
    name = "mylang",
    url = "https://mylang.org/download/mylang-linux",
    sha256 =  "f34999afc0dc3fdccba42b4adbdb9767ce32093c24be93c6dfcbb5edbb364787",
)

Use the binary target as @mylang//mylang-linux.

ATTRIBUTES

Name	Description	Type	Mandatory	Default
name	A unique name for this repository.	Name	required
build_file	Label to `BUILD` file	Label	optional	`None`
build_file_content	Content of `BUILD` file	String	optional	`””`
integrity	Integrity	String	optional	`””`
output	Name of the output target By default, the rule tries to guess the name of the file by stripping the `basename` from the URL. `starlark http_binary( name = “mylang”, output = “linux-bin”, url = “https://mylang.org/download/mylang-linux”, sha256 = “f34999afc0dc3fdccba42b4adbdb9767ce32093c24be93c6dfcbb5edbb364787”, )` Use target: `@mylang//linux-bin`	String	optional	`””`
repo_mapping	A dictionary from local repository name to global repository name. This allows controls over workspace dependency resolution for dependencies of this repository.<p>For example, an entry `”@foo”: “@bar”` declares that, for any time this repository depends on `@foo` (such as a dependency on `@foo//some:target`, it should actually resolve that dependency within globally-declared `@bar` (`@bar//some:target`).	Dictionary: String -> String	required
sha256	SHA 256 hash	String	optional	`””`
url	Url to fetch binary from	String	required
