1# Bazel support 2 3To get [Bazel](https://bazel.build/) working with {fmt} you can copy the files `BUILD.bazel`, 4`MODULE.bazel`, `WORKSPACE.bazel`, and `.bazelversion` from this folder (`support/bazel`) to the root folder of this project. 5This way {fmt} gets bazelized and can be used with Bazel (e.g. doing a `bazel build //...` on {fmt}). 6 7## Using {fmt} as a dependency 8 9### Using Bzlmod 10 11The [Bazel Central Registry](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-central-registry/tree/main/modules/fmt) provides support for {fmt}. 12 13For instance, to use {fmt} add to your `MODULE.bazel` file: 14 15``` 16bazel_dep(name = "fmt", version = "10.2.1") 17``` 18 19### Live at head 20 21For a live-at-head approach, you can copy the contents of this repository and move the Bazel-related build files to the root folder of this project as described above and make use of `local_path_override`, e.g.: 22 23``` 24local_path_override( 25 module_name = "fmt", 26 path = "../third_party/fmt", 27) 28``` 29
