Useful commands:

Generate deps.bzl (which contains all the go_repository)

bazel run //:gazelle — update-repos -from_file=go.mod -to_macro=deps.bzl%go_dependencies -build_file_proto_mode=disable

Automatically create build files

bazel run //:gazelle update — -repo_root .

Need following comment in WORKSPACE file so external go_repositories (in deps.bzl) are visible:

gazelle:go_visibility public
