Rechercherichtung

Beginne mit python/runfiles/runfiles.py, insbesondere Rlocation() und CurrentRepository(), an den verlinkten Zeilen, und führe dann die bereitgestellte minimale Reproduktion mit außerhalb des runfiles-Verzeichnisses gesetztem PYTHONPATH aus. Erledigt ist es, wenn das benutzerdefinierte Paket Rlocation() ohne source_repo aufrufen kann und die Reproduktion den gezeigten ValueError nicht mehr auslöst.

Beschreibung

🐞 bug report

Affected Rule

python.runfiles Rlocation()

Is this a regression?

No

Description

When we call Rlocation() inside of a custom python package without passing in the source_repo= parameter and import our package for use elsewhere, if sys.path includes a path to our package's code that is outside the runfiles directory, then the Rlocation() call will fail.

Specifically, this is caused by the code here, which attempts to look up runfiles using the repository mapping of the caller of the Rlocation() method. If sys.path has found and run the copy of our python package that resides outside of the runfiles directory, then the Rlocation() call is legitimately coming from outside the runfiles directory, causing the underlying call to self.CurrentRepository() to fail.

A custom package which calls Rlocation() shouldn't be required to provide the source_repo= parameter or else run the risk of error due to being found outside of the runfiles directory due to the configuration of sys.path.

🔬 Minimal Reproduction

MODULE.bazel

module(name = "reproducer")

bazel_dep(
    name = "rules_python",
    version = "1.9.0"
)

python = use_extension("@rules_python//python/extensions:python.bzl", "python")
python.toolchain(
    python_version = "3.14",
)

BUILD.bazel

load("@rules_python//python:py_binary.bzl", "py_binary")
load("@rules_python//python:py_library.bzl", "py_library")

py_binary(
    name = "binary",
    srcs = ["binary.py"],
    deps = [":library"],
    visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
)

py_library(
    name = "library",
    srcs = ["library/__init__.py"],
    deps = ["@rules_python//python/runfiles"],
    visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
)

binary.py

from library import rlocation_wrapper

if __name__ == "__main__":
    rlocation_wrapper()

library/__init__.py

from python.runfiles import Runfiles


def rlocation_wrapper() -> None:
    runfiles_obj = Runfiles.Create()
    print(runfiles_obj.Rlocation("library/__init__"))

In order to have sys.path find the package outside the runfiles directory, we can set the PYTHONPATH environment variable to the outer folder containing the package.
To reproduce the failure, run:

export PYTHONPATH=/home/<username>/<reproduction_folder>
bazelisk run //:binary

🔥 Exception or Error

ValueError: /home/<username>/<reproduction_folder>/library/__init__.py does not lie under the runfiles root /home/<username>/.cache/bazel/_bazel_<username>/0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef/execroot/_main/bazel-out/k8-fastbuild/bin/binary.runfiles
