To try the plugin, first check that you have the most recent aspect cli release installed.
First build the plugin from source:
% bazel build ...
Note that the .aspect/cli/config.yaml
file has a reference to the path under bazel-bin
where the plugin binary was just written.
On the first build, you'll see a warning printed that the plugin doesn't exist at this path.
This is just the development flow for working on plugins; users will reference the plugin's releases which are downloaded for them automatically.
Now just run aspect
. You should see that hello-world
appears in the help output. This shows that our plugin was loaded and contributed a custom command to the CLI.
Usage:
aspect [command]
Custom Commands from Plugins:
hello-world Print 'Hello World!' to the command line.
Just push a tag to this GitHub repo. The actions integration will create a release.
