# Using wraptool
|
||
|
|
||
|
Wraptool is a subcommand of Meson that allows you to manage your
|
||
|
source dependencies using the WrapDB database. It gives you all things
|
||
|
you would expect, such as installing and updating dependencies. The
|
||
|
wrap tool works on all platforms, the only limitation is that the wrap
|
||
|
definition works on your target platform. If you find some Wraps that
|
||
|
don't work, please file bugs or, even better, patches.
|
||
|
|
||
|
All code examples here assume that you are running the commands in
|
||
|
your top level source directory. Lines that start with the `$` mark
|
||
|
are commands to type.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Simple querying
|
||
|
|
||
|
The simplest operation to do is to query the list of packages
|
||
|
available. To list them all issue the following command:
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ meson wrap list
|
||
|
box2d
|
||
|
enet
|
||
|
gtest
|
||
|
libjpeg
|
||
|
liblzma
|
||
|
libpng
|
||
|
libxml2
|
||
|
lua
|
||
|
ogg
|
||
|
sqlite
|
||
|
vorbis
|
||
|
zlib
|
||
|
|
||
|
Usually you want to search for a specific package. This can be done
|
||
|
with the `search` command:
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ meson wrap search jpeg
|
||
|
libjpeg
|
||
|
|
||
|
To determine which versions of libjpeg are available to install, issue
|
||
|
the `info` command:
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ meson wrap info libjpeg
|
||
|
Available versions of libjpeg:
|
||
|
9a 2
|
||
|
|
||
|
The first number is the upstream release version, in this case
|
||
|
`9a`. The second number is the Wrap revision number. They don't relate
|
||
|
to anything in particular, but larger numbers imply newer
|
||
|
releases. You should always use the newest available release.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Installing dependencies
|
||
|
|
||
|
Installing dependencies is just as straightforward. First just create
|
||
|
the `subprojects` directory at the top of your source tree and issue
|
||
|
the install command.
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ meson wrap install libjpeg
|
||
|
Installed libjpeg branch 9a revision 2
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now you can issue a `subproject('libjpeg')` in your `meson.build` file
|
||
|
to use it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To check if your projects are up to date you can issue the `status` command.
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ meson wrap status
|
||
|
Subproject status
|
||
|
libjpeg up to date. Branch 9a, revision 2.
|
||
|
zlib not up to date. Have 1.2.8 2, but 1.2.8 4 is available.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In this case `zlib` has a newer release available. Updating it is
|
||
|
straightforward:
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ meson wrap update zlib
|
||
|
Updated zlib to branch 1.2.8 revision 4
|
||
|
|
||
|
Wraptool can do other things besides these. Documentation for these
|
||
|
can be found in the command line help, which can be accessed by
|
||
|
`meson wrap --help`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Promoting dependencies
|
||
|
|
||
|
Meson will only search for subprojects from the top level
|
||
|
`subprojects` directory. If you have subprojects that themselves have
|
||
|
subprojects, you must transfer them to the top level. This can be done
|
||
|
by going to your source root and issuing a promotion command.
|
||
|
|
||
|
meson wrap promote projname
|
||
|
|
||
|
This will cause Meson to go through your entire project tree, find an
|
||
|
embedded subproject and copy it to the top level.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If there are multiple embedded copies of a subproject, Meson will not
|
||
|
try to guess which one you want. Instead it will print all the
|
||
|
possibilities. You can then manually select which one to promote by
|
||
|
writing it out fully.
|
||
|
|
||
|
meson wrap promote subprojects/s1/subprojects/projname
|
||
|
|
||
|
This functionality was added in Meson release 0.45.0.
