Migrate to bazel modules about santa

[russellhancox]

This is still not as easy as it should be.

I've gone through the current dependencies in the WORKSPACE and found this list:

• com_google_absl
• com_google_protobuf
• rules_python
• build_bazel_rules_apple
• hedron_compile_commands
• com_google_googletest
• MOLAuthenticatingURLSession
• MOLCertificate
• MOLCodesignChecker
• MOLXPCConnection
• FMDB
• OCMock
• rules_go
• bazel_gazelle
• com_github_groob_moroz
• Go toolchain 1.19.3
• rules_python_fuzz
• rules_fuzzing

The rules repositories have full module support and there are ways to add non-module repos like we currently do (OCMock, FMDB, MOL*).

The most problematic repository right now is com_google_protobuf, which is in the bazel central registry but not the current version that we're in the middle of upgrading to (26.1) and the old version that is in the registry (23.1) won't compile on macOS (error: unused function 'CodepointSkipBackwards')

While we wait for that to be fixed, I can get on with adding MODULE.bazel files to the MOL* repositories, which will make using those much easier.

For ref, here's the MODULE.bazel I have right now:

module(name = "santa")

bazel_dep(name = "apple_support", version = "1.15.1", repo_name = "build_bazel_apple_support")
bazel_dep(name = "abseil-cpp", version = "20240116.1")

bazel_dep(name = "rules_python", version = "0.31.0")
bazel_dep(name = "rules_cc", version = "0.0.9")
bazel_dep(name = "rules_apple", version = "3.5.0", repo_name = "build_bazel_rules_apple")
bazel_dep(name = "rules_swift", version = "1.18.0")

bazel_dep(name = "protobuf", version = "23.1", repo_name = "com_google_protobuf")

bazel_dep(name = "googletest", version = "1.14.0.bcr.1")

bazel_dep(name = "hedron_compile_commands", dev_dependency = True)
git_override(
    module_name = "hedron_compile_commands",
    remote = "https://github.com/hedronvision/bazel-compile-commands-extractor.git",
    commit = "0e990032f3c5a866e72615cf67e5ce22186dcb97",
    # Replace the commit hash (above) with the latest (https://github.com/hedronvision/bazel-compile-commands-extractor/commits/main).
    # Even better, set up Renovate and let it do the work for you (see "Suggestion: Updates" in the README).
)

non_module_deps = use_extension("//:non_module_deps.bzl", "non_module_deps")
use_repo(non_module_deps, "MOLAuthenticatingURLSession")
use_repo(non_module_deps, "MOLCodesignChecker")
use_repo(non_module_deps, "MOLCertificate")
use_repo(non_module_deps, "MOLXPCConnection")
use_repo(non_module_deps, "FMDB")
use_repo(non_module_deps, "OCMock")

The non_module_deps.bzl is very simple:

load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:git.bzl", "git_repository")

def _non_module_deps_impl(ctx):
  # Macops Library dependencies haven't (yet) upgraded to Bazel modules.
  git_repository(
    name = "MOLAuthenticatingURLSession",
    remote = "https://github.com/google/macops-molauthenticatingurlsession.git",
    commit = "38b5ee46edb262481b16f950266a11d8cb77127c",
    shallow_since = "1671479898 -0500",
  )
  ...

  # FMDB is used to access SQLite from Objective-C(++) code.
  git_repository(
    name = "FMDB",
    remote = "https://github.com/ccgus/fmdb.git",
    commit = "61e51fde7f7aab6554f30ab061cc588b28a97d04",
    shallow_since = "1589301502 -0700",
    build_file_content = """
objc_library(
    name = "FMDB",
    srcs = glob(["src/fmdb/*.m"], exclude=["src/fmdb.m"]),
    hdrs = glob(["src/fmdb/*.h"]),
    includes = ["src"],
    sdk_dylibs = ["sqlite3"],
    visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
)
""",
  )

non_module_deps = module_extension(implementation = _non_module_deps_impl)
