  • Adding expansion.bzl directly to this project.
    • Allows for better environment variable expansion than built-in skylark methods.
    • I'm also trying to submit this to Skylib (Adding expansion.bzl for Fully Expanding Environment Variables bazelbuild/bazel-skylib#486).
      • I could add this here (instead or in addition to).
      • Obviously, (also) adding this to Skylib would be more reusable for more repos.
      • Once submitted to Skylib (if accepted), this addition of expansion.bzl could be replaced with referencing the one in Skylib.
        • Doing this would add an extra dependency for bazel-bats (needing to pull in Skylib in bazel_bats_dependencies()).
        • Alternatively, could just keep this file here (for no extra dependency).
  • Updating env attribute expansion logic in _bats_test_impl().
    • Allows better environment expansion logic than previously used.
  • Updating tests/hello_world.bats to validate many different environment variable expansion configurations.

This is one approach for improving bats_test environment variable expansion logic (to get at least parity with built-in expansion logic). See https://github.com/CauhxMilloy/bazel-bats/tree/improvedExpansionWithShTest for sh_test approach.

Fixes #27.

* Adding `expansion.bzl` directly to this project.
  * Allows for better environment variable expansion than built-in skylark methods.
  * I'm also trying to submit this to Skylib (bazelbuild/bazel-skylib#486).
    * I could add this here (instead or in addition to).
    * Obviously, (also) adding this to Skylib would be more reusable for more repos.
    * Once submitted to Skylib (if accepted), this addition of `expansion.bzl` could be replaced with referencing the one in Skylib.
      * Doing this would add an extra dependency for bazel-bats (needing to pull in Skylib in `bazel_bats_dependencies()`).
      * Alternatively, could just keep this file here (for no extra dependency).
* Updating `env` attribute expansion logic in `_bats_test_impl()`.
  * Allows better environment expansion logic than previously used.
* Updating `tests/hello_world.bats` to validate many different environment variable expansion configurations.

This is one approach for improving `bats_test` environment variable expansion logic (to get at least parity with built-in expansion logic).
See https://github.com/CauhxMilloy/bazel-bats/tree/improvedExpansionWithShTest for `sh_test` approach.

* Switching `_odd_count_dollar_sign_repeat()` to `_even_count_dollar_sign_repeat()` and inverting logic at call sites.
* Updating parameter name (`search_start` -> `search_start_index`) for more clarity.
