Can't do gofmt
If you want the generated source files to be go-formatted, you must set the environment variable GO_POST_PROCESS_FILE="/usr/local/bin/gofmt -w"
I tried
-
bazel build [...] --host_action_env=GO_POST_PROCESS_FILE="/usr/local/bin/gofmt -w" -
bazel build [...] --action_env=GO_POST_PROCESS_FILE="/usr/local/bin/gofmt -w" -
GO_POST_PROCESS_FILE="/usr/local/bin/gofmt -w" bazel build [...]
None of them works... I forked the repo to remove the 1>/dev/null redirection so I can see the generator output, and got this:
[main] INFO o.o.c.languages.AbstractGoCodegen - Environment variable GO_POST_PROCESS_FILE not defined so Go code may not be properly formatted. To define it, try export GO_POST_PROCESS_FILE="/usr/local/bin/gofmt -w" (Linux/Mac)
What about setting the environment variable via export before running bazel build ?
What about setting the environment variable via
exportbefore runningbazel build?
Didn't work either...
As a workaround, run gofmt on the output folder after the code generation.
