Tools reference¶

Tools ¶

This is available as the Application.tools property.

bazel ¶

bazel: Bazel

docker ¶

docker: Docker

git ¶

git: Git

go ¶

go: Go

uv ¶

uv: UV

Bazel ¶

Example usage:

app.tools.bazel.run(["build", "//..."])

This automatically downloads the latest release of Bazelisk to an internal location if bazel nor bazelisk are already on PATH.

Docker ¶

If docker is not on the PATH, this will try to use podman instead. Additionally, Docker CLI hints are disabled to have less verbosity and a more consistent experience across different Docker-compatible tools.

Example usage:

app.tools.docker.run(["build", ".", "--tag", "my-image"])

Go ¶

This will automatically set the GOTOOLCHAIN environment variable to the proper version based on files in the current directory. The following files are considered, in order of precedence:

.go-version
go.mod
go.work

Example usage:

app.tools.go.run(["build", "."])

UV ¶

This will use the UV executable that comes with dda.

Example usage:

app.tools.uv.run(["pip", "tree"])

This also makes modifying the installation of UV itself safe on Windows.
