# Target

The BUILD target for a dependency. Appears in the fields of `ctx.attr` corresponding to dependency attributes (`label` or `label_list`). Has the following fields:

- ### label

  `Label Target.label`
  The identifier of the target.

- ### files

  `depset Target.files`
  The set of `File`s in the default outputs for this target. Equivalent to `target[DefaultInfo].files`.

- ### aspect_ids

  `list Target.aspect_ids`
  The list of `aspect_ids` applied to this target.

- ### Providers

  The providers of a rule target can be accessed by type using index notation (`target[DefaultInfo]`). The presence of providers can be checked using the `in` operator (`SomeInfo in target`).
  If the rule's implementation function returns a `struct` instead of a list of `Provider` instances, the struct's fields can be accessed via the corresponding fields of the `Target` (`target.some_legacy_info`). This behavior is deprecated.
