• bazel and starlark files (BUILD, .bazel, WORKSPACE, *.bzl, .star, *.sky):

  • syntax highlighting
  • formatting & linting diagnostics (via buildifier)
  • hover to get links to bazel documentation
  • hover to get bazel rule & starlark function reference (via Starlark Language Server)

• bazelrc files (*.bazelrc):

  • syntax highlighting
  • hover to get flag reference & links to bazel docs / bazel codesearch
  • completion for all 834 available flags by command (includes undocumented flags).

• launch.bazelrc file (a file where you can stash frequently executed commands):

  • syntax highlighting
  • hover over command name to get a "codelens" (click to run the command)
  • repeat previous command for iterative development (shift+ctrl+space)
  • custom problem matcher for rules_go output

Includes all 834 flags (including undocumented options)

Use the ' ' (space) or '=' (equals) to commit choice and continue typing

Keep a launch.bazelrc file for common (or uncommonly used) commands. Click the "codelens" to run it.

Repeat the last command with shift+ctrl+space.

NOTE: the directory where the launch.bazelrc file determines the working directory for the shell. Typically you'll put this next to your WORKSPACE file.

The advanced features are available with a Bzl subscription. Sign-up on the website or within the vscode extension. Read more about advanced features on the documentation site.
