rules_erlang 3.6.0

What's Changed

This release provides a workspace macro for redefined platform definitions and the detection of an existing Erlang installation on the host. It honors the ERLANG_HOME environment variable, and will fall back to erl as is available on the PATH. This makes it simpler to get started with rules_erlang.

• erlang_toolchain now provides TemplateVariableInfo by @pjk25 in #68
• Auto-detection of system erlang by @pjk25 in #70

Full Changelog: 3.0.0...3.0.1

rules_erlang 3.0.0

What's Changed

This is a substantial update which provides the option of using Bazel to compile Erlang within a project. This can greatly simplify the management of which Erlang versions are test in say, a CI environment.

A few breaking changes were required, notably an Erlang/OTP "platform" must be targeted to resolve the toolchains needed by all the erlang related rules. There is a special platform, @rules_erlang//platforms:erlang_external_platform, which makes use of the existing --@//:erlang_home and --@//:erlang_version to maintain the behavior of rules_erlang 2.x with an external Erlang. On windows this is currently the only working option.

Also, the erlc rule has been renamed to erlang_bytecode in attempt to be more conventional with rule names.

The rest of the changes are mentioned in #43.

PRs in this release:

• Enhanced erlang mk autobuild by @pjk25 in #41
