buildbuddy-action-reproduce

To reproduce a Bazel remote action from a BuildBuddy invocation, provide the invocation URL or ID to locate the target action using GetInvocation and GetExecution. The tool downloads Action and Command protos and formats a bb execute replay command preserving inputs, env, and timeouts.

Yes, you can modify environment variables, exec properties, command arguments, and pin execution to a specific executor when generating a bb execute replay. This allows precise reproducibility and debugging of the original Bazel remote action.

A bb execute replay command is used to re-run a specific Bazel remote action deterministically. It reconstructs the execution environment from downloaded Action and Command protos, enabling users to debug failing actions or validate invocations locally.

The tool locates the specific Bazel action via digest or labels using GetInvocation and GetExecution, then automatically downloads the Action and Command protos. These protos are used to reconstruct a replayable bb execute command with original inputs and outputs.

Reproducing a BuildBuddy action does not require a specific executor setup initially, but you can pin execution to a specific executor during replay. The tool preserves original exec properties and supports overrides for environment variables and timeouts.
