# bazel-compile-commands

Generates [compile_commands.json](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/JSONCompilationDatabase.html) for your bazel project

## What is compile_commands.json

It's a file used by code completion tools, like [clangd](https://clangd.llvm.org/)

Look at [example.cpp](example/example.cpp) in vim with [coc-nvim](https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim) plugin with/without that database:

![vim with/without compile_commands.json](./vim.png)

## How to use

See [example](example/)

With `--experimental_action_listener` we generate JSON files for every build piece and with `gen_compile_commands.sh` we make final `compile_commands.json`
