For people coming here in the future, I spent quite a bit of time trying to get this to work... I ended up getting it to work by installing bazel using the installer from github via https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/install-os-x.html. I went with 0.27.1 since it was the oldest one/about the same date as the last release of upvote.

then I still had to use the following command-line flags to get it to build:

bazel run upvote/gae:monolith_binary.deploy --host_force_python=PY2 --incompatible_depset_union=false --incompatible_depset_is_not_iterable=false --incompatible_disable_deprecated_attr_params=false  -- "${PROJ_ID}" app.yaml

After that whole thing, it built, but the deployment step failed for some reason and i ended up having to do my gcloud deploy manually from:

bazel-bin/upvote/gae/monolith_binary.deploy.runfiles/__main_

Since this is a security focused app, I'm nervous deploying it having to use outdated tools / code that hasn't been updated since 2019. If google is actually still maintaining this internally, would love to see an update! Otherwise, thinking about investigating what it would take to make a PR updating the Bazel tooling.

Also I should mention that this tool is awesome, so I'd love to encourage an update/contribute.
