{#v1-6-3-fixed}

Fixed

• (pypi) We now use the Minimal Version Selection (MVS) algorithm to select
  the right wheel when there are multiple wheels for the target platform
  (e.g. musllinux_1_1_x86_64 and musllinux_1_2_x86_64). If the user
  wants to set the minimum version for the selection algorithm, use the
  {attr}pip.defaults.whl_platform_tags attribute to configure that. If
  musllinux_*_x86_64 is specified, we will choose the lowest available
  wheel version. Fixes #​3250.

{#v1-6-0}

v1.6.1

Using Bzlmod

Add to your MODULE.bazel file:

bazel_dep(name = "rules_python", version = "1.6.1")

python = use_extension("@​rules_python//python/extensions:python.bzl", "python")
python.toolchain(
    python_version = "3.13",
)

pip = use_extension("@​rules_python//python/extensions:pip.bzl", "pip")
pip.parse(
    hub_name = "pypi",
    python_version = "3.13",
    requirements_lock = "//:requirements_lock.txt",
)

use_repo(pip, "pypi")

Using WORKSPACE

Paste this snippet into your WORKSPACE file:

load("@​bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")

http_archive(
    name = "rules_python",
    sha256 = "f2e80f97f9c0b82e2489e61e725df1e6bdaf16c4dacf5e26b95668787164baff",
    strip_prefix = "rules_python-1.6.1",
    url = "https://github.com/bazel-contrib/rules_python/releases/download/1.6.1/rules_python-1.6.1.tar.gz",
)

load("@​rules_python//python:repositories.bzl", "py_repositories")

py_repositories()

Gazelle plugin

Paste this snippet into your WORKSPACE file:

load("@​bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")
http_archive(
    name = "rules_python_gazelle_plugin",
    sha256 = "f2e80f97f9c0b82e2489e61e725df1e6bdaf16c4dacf5e26b95668787164baff",
    strip_prefix = "rules_python-1.6.1/gazelle",
    url = "https://github.com/bazel-contrib/rules_python/releases/download/1.6.1/rules_python-1.6.1.tar.gz",
)

### To compile the rules_python gazelle extension from source,
### we must fetch some third-party go dependencies that it uses.

load("@​rules_python_gazelle_plugin//:deps.bzl", _py_gazelle_deps = "gazelle_deps")
