# Command-line commands
There are two different ways of invoking Meson. First, you can run it directly
from the source tree with the command `/path/to/source/meson.py`. Meson may
also be installed in which case the command is simply `meson`. In this manual
we only use the latter format for simplicity.
Meson is invoked using the following syntax:
`meson [COMMAND] [COMMAND_OPTIONS]`
This section describes all available commands and some of their Optional arguments.
The most common workflow is to run [`setup`](#setup), followed by [`compile`](#compile), and then [`install`](#install).
For the full list of all available options for a specific command use the following syntax:
`meson COMMAND --help`
### configure

$ meson configure [-h] [--prefix PREFIX] [--bindir BINDIR]

```
Most arguments are the same as in [`setup`](#setup).
Note: reconfiguring project will not reset options to their default values (even if they were changed in `meson.build`).
#### Examples:
List all available options:
```
meson configure builddir
```
Change value of a single option:
```
meson configure builddir -Doption=new_value
```
### compile
*(since 0.54.0)*
```
$ meson compile [-h] [--clean] [-C BUILDDIR] [-j JOBS] [-l LOAD_AVERAGE]
[--verbose] [--ninja-args NINJA_ARGS] [--vs-args VS_ARGS]
[TARGET [TARGET ...]]
```
Builds a default or a specified target of a configured meson project.
```
positional arguments:
TARGET Targets to build. Target has the
following format: [PATH_TO_TARGET/]TARGE
T_NAME[:TARGET_TYPE].
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--clean Clean the build directory.
-C BUILDDIR The directory containing build files to
be built.
-j JOBS, --jobs JOBS The number of worker jobs to run (if
supported). If the value is less than 1
the build program will guess.
-l LOAD_AVERAGE, --load-average LOAD_AVERAGE
The system load average to try to
maintain (if supported).
--verbose Show more verbose output.
--ninja-args NINJA_ARGS Arguments to pass to `ninja` (applied
only on `ninja` backend).
--vs-args VS_ARGS Arguments to pass to `msbuild` (applied
only on `vs` backend).
```
`--verbose` argument is available since 0.55.0.
#### Targets
*(since 0.55.0)*
`TARGET` has the following syntax `[PATH/]NAME[:TYPE]`, where:
- `NAME`: name of the target from `meson.build` (e.g. `foo` from `executable('foo', ...)`).
- `PATH`: path to the target relative to the root `meson.build` file. Note: relative path for a target specified in the root `meson.build` is `./`.
- `TYPE`: type of the target. Can be one of the following: 'executable', 'static_library', 'shared_library', 'shared_module', 'custom', 'run', 'jar'.
`PATH` and/or `TYPE` can be ommited if the resulting `TARGET` can be used to uniquely identify the target in `meson.build`.
#### Backend specific arguments
*(since 0.55.0)*
`BACKEND-args` use the following syntax:
If you only pass a single string, then it is considered to have all values separated by commas. Thus invoking the following command:
```
$ meson compile --ninja-args=-n,-d,explain
```
would add `-n`, `-d` and `explain` arguments to ninja invocation.
If you need to have commas or spaces in your string values, then you need to pass the value with proper shell quoting like this:
```
$ meson compile "--ninja-args=['a,b', 'c d']"
```
#### Examples:
Build the project:
```
meson compile -C builddir
```
Execute a dry run on ninja backend with additional debug info:
```
meson compile --ninja-args=-n,-d,explain
```
Build three targets: two targets that have the same `foo` name, but different type, and a `bar` target:
```
meson compile foo:shared_library foo:static_library bar
```
Produce a coverage html report (if available):
```
meson compile coverage-html
```
### dist
*(since 0.52.0)*
```
$ meson dist [-h] [-C WD] [--formats FORMATS] [--include-subprojects]
[--no-tests]
```
Generates a release archive from the current source tree.
```
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit

# Command-line commands
There are two different ways of invoking Meson. First, you can run it directly
from the source tree with the command `/path/to/source/meson.py`. Meson may
also be installed in which case the command is simply `meson`. In this manual
we only use the latter format for simplicity.
Meson is invoked using the following syntax:
`meson [COMMAND] [COMMAND_OPTIONS]`
This section describes all available commands and some of their Optional arguments.
The most common workflow is to run [`setup`](#setup), followed by [`compile`](#compile), and then [`install`](#install).
For the full list of all available options for a specific command use the following syntax:
`meson COMMAND --help`
### configure
```
{{ cmd_help['configure']['usage'] }}
```
Changes options of a configured meson project.
```
{{ cmd_help['configure']['arguments'] }}
```
Most arguments are the same as in [`setup`](#setup).
Note: reconfiguring project will not reset options to their default values (even if they were changed in `meson.build`).
#### Examples:
List all available options:
```
meson configure builddir
```
Change value of a single option:
```
meson configure builddir -Doption=new_value
```
### compile
*(since 0.54.0)*
```
{{ cmd_help['compile']['usage'] }}
```
Builds a default or a specified target of a configured meson project.
```
{{ cmd_help['compile']['arguments'] }}
```
`--verbose` argument is available since 0.55.0.
#### Targets
*(since 0.55.0)*
`TARGET` has the following syntax `[PATH/]NAME[:TYPE]`, where:
- `NAME`: name of the target from `meson.build` (e.g. `foo` from `executable('foo', ...)`).
- `PATH`: path to the target relative to the root `meson.build` file. Note: relative path for a target specified in the root `meson.build` is `./`.
- `TYPE`: type of the target. Can be one of the following: 'executable', 'static_library', 'shared_library', 'shared_module', 'custom', 'run', 'jar'.
`PATH` and/or `TYPE` can be ommited if the resulting `TARGET` can be used to uniquely identify the target in `meson.build`.
#### Backend specific arguments
*(since 0.55.0)*
`BACKEND-args` use the following syntax:
If you only pass a single string, then it is considered to have all values separated by commas. Thus invoking the following command:
```
$ meson compile --ninja-args=-n,-d,explain
```
would add `-n`, `-d` and `explain` arguments to ninja invocation.
If you need to have commas or spaces in your string values, then you need to pass the value with proper shell quoting like this:
```
$ meson compile "--ninja-args=['a,b', 'c d']"
```
#### Examples:
Build the project:
```
meson compile -C builddir
```
Execute a dry run on ninja backend with additional debug info:
```
meson compile --ninja-args=-n,-d,explain
```
Build three targets: two targets that have the same `foo` name, but different type, and a `bar` target:
```
meson compile foo:shared_library foo:static_library bar
```
Produce a coverage html report (if available):
```
meson compile coverage-html
```
### dist
*(since 0.52.0)*
```
{{ cmd_help['dist']['usage'] }}
```
Generates a release archive from the current source tree.
```

meson init -C sourcedir
```
### introspect
```
{{ cmd_help['introspect']['usage'] }}
