Describe the problem you are trying to solve. Being able to use protobuf as module in a Bazel project

Describe the solution you'd like Providing a MODULE.bazel file

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here. There is a draft here #12489 but not updated for April 2023, maybe @deannagarcia ?

If the request sounds valuable, i can contribute to provide the module file Olivier

Thanks for the request! We are interested in moving to Bzlmod in the near future and are in communication with Bazel folks on our side. We are currently blocking on the completion of some work to restructure our repositories which will also affect our existing WORKSPACE dependencies.

We expect to start on the Bzlmod effort shortly after and can update back here once this is staffed.

We do already officially support Bazel 6, but the rest of #12489 moving to platforms is currently on hold .

Still desired

running into this issue with gazelle and protobuffs deps

[railwaycat]

There are already patches under Bazel Central Registry to bring bzlmod support to protobuf. But only for several history versions. Is it possible to reuse those patches for the latest code?

$hello_world

[meteorcloudy]

protobuf is already published to https://registry.bazel.build/modules/protobuf and managed by the protobuf team.

[touchinglie]

I'm installing the ProtoBuf lib on my Radxa Rock 3A Debian Bullseye to compile the source code for NCNN. When I executed the command,

bazel build :protoc :protobuf

it raise an error:

INFO: Reading rc options for 'build' from /home/radxa/protobuf-28.1/.bazelrc: Inherited 'common' options: --noenable_bzlmod --repo_env=BAZEL_NO_APPLE_CPP_TOOLCHAIN=1 ERROR: --noenable_bzlmod :: Unrecognized option: --noenable_bzlmod

I checked .bazelrc, and found this link. Any Idea or help pls.

@touchinglie Please upgrade your Bazel version to at least Bazel 6, ideally Bazel 7

@opicaud @zhangskz I think this can be closed?
