"invalid package name" exception in bazel


I try to run this command:

bazel query 'buildfiles(deps(//tensorflow/core:core_cpu_impl))'

And get the error:

ERROR: invalid target format 'buildfiles(deps(//tensorflow/core:core_cpu_impl))': invalid package name 'buildfiles(deps(//tensorflow/core': package names may not contain '//' path separators

Environment: Windows 10 x64 Bazel 0.25.2

Any idea?


Solution

  • Try to use double quotation instead of single quotation. I ran into exact same issue as you have. After looking into Bazel documentation, notice they are using double quotation.
