How to Determine Bazel 8.2.1 Base Modules

[Eric Stoces]

I'm trying to upgrade to Bazel 8.2.1 in an air gapped environment.  I host the BCR and need the base set of modules necessary to run Bazel so I can add them to my environment. Running Bazel, getting an error, adding the missing module, repeat is not a good process...

Thanks

You can run an un-airgapped build and then look at the URLs in the MODULE.bazel.lock file.

Or you can just use `bazel vendor <targets>`, which basically generates a local registry with all necessary modules for you besides all vendored repos.
