####Installing from source |
|
|
|
|
You can run Meson directly from a revision control checkout or an |
|
|
|
|
extracted tarball. Meson is also available from PyPi, so it can |
|
|
|
|
be installed with 'pip install meson'. |

####Running |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Meson requires that you have a source directory and a build directory |
|
|
|
|
and that these two are different. In your source root must exist a file |
|
|
|
|
called 'meson.build'. To generate the build system run this command: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
meson <source directory> <build directory> |
|
|
|
|
`meson <source directory> <build directory>` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can omit either of the two directories, and Meson will substitute |
|
|
|
|
the current directory and autodetect what you mean. This allows you to |
|
|
|
|
do things like this: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cd source_root; mkdir build; cd build; meson .. |
|
|
|
|
cd source_root; mkdir build; meson build |
|
|
|
|
`cd source_root; mkdir build; cd build; meson ..` |
|
|
|
|
`cd source_root; mkdir build; meson build` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To compile, cd into your build directory and type 'ninja'. To run unit |
|
|
|
|
tests, type 'ninja test'. |
|
|
|
|
To compile, cd into your build directory and type `ninja`. To run unit |
|
|
|
|
tests, type `ninja test`. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install is the same but it can take an extra argument: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESTDIR=/destdir/path ninja install |
|
|
|
|
`DESTDIR=/destdir/path ninja install` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESTDIR can be omitted. If you are installing to system directories, |
|
|
|
|
`DESTDIR` can be omitted. If you are installing to system directories, |
|
|
|
|
you may need to run this command with sudo. |
