Error on build `ts_proto_library` from external proto

[egormodin]

Error: Error in directory_path: illegal rule name: _@com_google_protobuf//:timestamp_pb.d.ts_dirpath: invalid target name '_@com_google_protobuf//:timestamp_pb.d.ts_dirpath': target names may not contain '//' path separators

Second issue: proto file is not usually accessible, but the d.ts files is needed to be copied, so there is no valid way to build it into source tree.

I suppose the d.ts file should be created from external proto and copied into source tree. Since there is no access to the proto file then the rule should be able to use only proto_library. By adding dependency into ts_proto_library I am trying to ask compiler to use same ts file as I am able to use in the code.

In the current tapestry project we are using go_googleapis protos from https://github.com/googleapis/googleapis/tree/master/google, but I was not able to modify WORKSPACE file to bring it in to the example project

[thesayyn]

No worries, i believe timestamp proto is different than googleapis as for WKT types no generation needed. I'll fix it.

BTW you can do in MODULE.bazel for rules_ts.

http_archive = use_repo_rule("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")
http_archive(
    name = "googleapis", 
    urls = ["https://github.com/googleapis/googleapis/archive/ef8d4740570bd099dd1a484e200a3d9433f793e2.tar.gz"]
)

[egormodin]

right, no generation needed, but the current example results with the same error that I have by using go_googleapis.

[egormodin]

btw to add @go_googleapis space we have a rule in the project WORKSPACE file

load("@com_google_api//:repository_rules.bzl", "switched_rules_by_language")

switched_rules_by_language(
    name = "com_google_googleapis_imports",
    go = True,
    grpc = True,
    java = True,
