# `ape`

> A Bazel module for working with αcτµαlly pδrταblε εxεcµταblε (APE) pre-built binaries.

## Getting Started

Add the following to `MODULE.bazel`:

```py
bazel_dep(name = "ape", version = "0.0.0")
```

Binaries are provided as executable targets:

```sh
bazel run -- @ape//:curl --version
```

List the available executables:

```sh
bazel query 'kind(alias, @ape//:*)'
```

## Hermeticity

The module is fully hermetic, all binaries are downloaded and verified against subresource integrities.

## Cosmopolitian

The project provides pre-built, hermetic [Cosmopolitan pre-built binaries][cosmo.zip].

Cosmopolitan binaries work across all operating systems as explained [upstream][ape].

Binaries are built with [superconfigure].

The [superconfigure] source code is mirrored in this repository on the [`superconfigure/main`][mirror] branch. The source contains the source code for the binaries, patches and license information.

Binaries are mirrored in the [GitLab generic package registry][package-registry] to protect against upstream outages.
