bzlops.vim

bzlops.vim is a Vim plugin designed to streamline Bazel build rule management directly from the editor. It automates common tasks like creating new rules, deleting files and their corresponding rules, and managing dependencies, reducing manual editing of BUILD files.

Key Features

• Rule Creation — Automatically generates new Bazel rules based on the current file, adding appropriate dependencies.
• Rule Deletion — Removes both the current file and its corresponding Bazel rule in one command.
• Dependency Management — Adds or removes dependencies based on the current line, such as #include statements.
• Filetype Support — Currently supports C++ and Protocol Buffers, with extensibility for new filetypes via custom handlers.
• Automatic Dependency Loading — Loads all dependencies from include/import lines in the file.

Philosophy

The plugin emphasizes automation and context-awareness, leveraging the current file and cursor position to perform accurate Bazel operations, thereby minimizing errors and saving time.
