~~I would almost say this is a duplicate of #292. It would be nice if there was 1 accepted way to consume boost as a bazel user.~~
~~I've done some work to attempt to build modular boost with bazel https://github.com/bazelboost/boost. It is highly experimental so I wouldn't recommend using it in production. Additionally I've experimented with modifying boostdep to generate bazel BUILD.bazel and MODULE.bazel files. https://github.com/zaucy/boostdep/commit/6bf52b97d7d00af1bdf9e4d64adfa6e0231181bd~~
~~I haven't had the bandwidth to finish it off, but if there is some interest in the community to build boost with bazel directly I would be very interested in collaborating.~~
I've worked on adding support to all boost modules here: https://github.com/bazelboost/registry
Support is being added incrementally as I run into issues or when someone opens an issue. If anyone is interested in contributing to the effort please give it a try and help fix issues or report them!
The ultimate goal would be to make a PR into the BCR when things are relatively stable. Maybe even upstream the changes (if the boostorg team(s) would accept it.)
