Kotlin Databinding Support

Databinding support, especially with Kotlin is an ongoing effort. See issue for details.

In order to compile Kotlin based Gradle module that uses databinding without much refactors, Grazel uses custom kt_db_android_library rules from grab-bazel-common. See databinding.bzl for more details.

Additionally, Grazel employs few custom patches to Bazel's Android Tools jar for performance and build fixes.

By default, the patched tools are imported to current build via android_tools macro in WORKSPACE.

load("@grab_bazel_common//:workspace_defs.bzl", "android_tools")

android_tools(
    commit = "f74ef90479383a38cef1af33d28a3253031e00c1",
    remote = "https://github.com/grab/grab-bazel-common.git",
)

Commenting out android_tools will use the Android tools version shipped with Bazel.
