If the directory exists we early return or raise exception in resolve()
method. It was already like that even before the recent refactoring of
the code.
It is safer like that anyway, we don't want a project reconfigure to
silently pull new code. Updating subprojects should be an explicit
action of the user. For example gst-build has a 'git-update' script that
does that. In the future we could add a 'meson subprojects update'
command.
It is sometimes important to be able to build projects offline, in that
case subproject tarballs and patches could be shipped directly within
the project's repository.
- Use CongifParser instead of parsing ourself, this will give more
flexibility in the future.
- Always read the .wrap file first, because if it contains the
'directory' key we should use that value instead of packagename for
the path where do download/lookup for the subproject.
- If we download the subproject (git/submodule/tarball/etc) we should
still check it contains a meson.build file.
This has the adventage that "meson --help" shows a list of all commands,
making them discoverable. This also reduce the manual parsing of
arguments to the strict minimum needed for backward compatibility.
Otherwise, git fiddles with the cmd.exe console's color behaviour and
disables it, which causes it to stop interpreting ANSI color codes
outputted by meson for colored output.
Effectively, as soon as any subproject is initialized, cmd.exe goes
nice coloured output to ugly raw ANSI codes.
Implement a string converter in our WrapMode enum so that argparse will
only print the names in the doc instead of WrapMode.<name>.
This changes --help command from printing:
--wrap-mode {WrapMode.default,WrapMode.nofallback,WrapMode.nodownload,WrapMode.forcefallback}
to:
--wrap-mode {default,nofallback,nodownload,forcefallback}
Fixes issue #4067
Fixed manually promoting wrap files with a full path, e.g.
`meson wrap promote subprojects/s1/subprojects/projname.wrap`,
which resulted in an error before (new test added:
`./run_unittests.py AllPlatformTests.test_subproject_promotion_wrap`).
Additionally, running promote with an invalid subproject path now fails
properly. Before, it just silently did nothing (added to test:
`./run_unittests.py AllPlatformTests.test_subproject_promotion`).
This can be useful to make sure that a project builds when
its fallbacks are used on systems where external dependencies
satisfy the version requirements, or to easily hack on the sources
of a dependency for which a fallback exists.
The '+' and 'U' cases should not happen normally because we don't run
any git commands if the subproject directory exists and contains
a meson build file. However, if the user accidentally messed up the
subproject checkout to a version that had no build files, we would
error out with an assertion.
According to Python documentation[1] dirname and basename
are defined as follows:
os.path.dirname() = os.path.split()[0]
os.path.basename() = os.path.split()[1]
For the purpose of better readability split() is replaced
by appropriate function if only one part of returned tuple
is used.

Using wrap mechanism in enterprise environment,
Some package is very large, example, sdk package from
BSP vendor.
so:
- open file in the output directory with a temporary name
- download a chunk, update hash calculation, write chunk to file
- when finished close file and check the hash
- if hash is incorrect, delete temp file and raise error
- if hash is correct, atomically rename temp file to final file
fix issue: #2358
fix shutil.unpack_archive() failure when the
destination files already exists and is read-only.
Example: all files in opensource package live555
is `-r--r--r--`, if some file in patch archive try to
patch original files of live555, shutil.unpack_archive
will raise `[Errno 13] Permission denied`
This also adds a "# noqa: F401" comment on an unused "import lzma",
which we are using it in a try/except block that is being used to
check if the lzma module is importable; of course it is unused.
v2: This turned out to be a little tricky.
mesonbuild/modules/__init__.py had the "unused" import:
from ..interpreterbase import permittedKwargs, noKwargs
However, that meant that the various modules could do things like:
from . import noKwargs # "." is "mesonbuild.modules"
Which breaks when you remove __init__.py's "unused" import. I
could have tagged that import with "# noqa: F401", but instead I
chose to have each of the module import directly from
"..interpreterbase" instead of ".".
Meson has a common pattern of using 'if len(foo) == 0:' or
'if len(foo) != 0:', however, this is a common anti-pattern in python.
Instead tests for emptiness/non-emptiness should be done with a simple
'if foo:' or 'if not foo:'
Consider the following:
>>> import timeit
>>> timeit.timeit('if len([]) == 0: pass')
0.10730923599840025
>>> timeit.timeit('if not []: pass')
0.030033907998586074
>>> timeit.timeit('if len(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']) == 0: pass')
0.1154778649979562
>>> timeit.timeit("if not ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']: pass")
0.08259823200205574
>>> timeit.timeit('if len("") == 0: pass')
0.089759664999292
>>> timeit.timeit('if not "": pass')
0.02340641999762738
>>> timeit.timeit('if len("foo") == 0: pass')
0.08848102600313723
>>> timeit.timeit('if not "foo": pass')
0.04032287199879647
And for the one additional case of 'if len(foo.strip()) == 0', which can
be replaced with 'if not foo.isspace()'
>>> timeit.timeit('if len(" ".strip()) == 0: pass')
0.15294511600222904
>>> timeit.timeit('if " ".isspace(): pass')
0.09413968399894657
>>> timeit.timeit('if len(" abc".strip()) == 0: pass')
0.2023209120015963
>>> timeit.timeit('if " abc".isspace(): pass')
0.09571301700270851
In other words, it's always a win to not use len(), when you don't
actually want to check the length.
Using Meson from outside a git repo results in an error when trying to
resolve submodule subprojects. Running git from inside subproject root
should be enough to fix it.

After an initial checkout, submodules aren’t initialized and thus trying
to update them fails.

Special wrap modes:
nofallback: Don't download wraps for dependency() fallbacks
nodownload: Don't download wraps for all subproject() calls
Subprojects are used for two purposes:
1. To download and build dependencies by using .wrap files if they
are not provided by the system. This is usually expressed via
dependency(..., fallback: ...).
2. To download and build 'copylibs' which are meant to be used by
copying into your project. This is always done with an explicit
subproject() call.
--wrap-mode=nofallback will never do (1)
--wrap-mode=nodownload will do neither (1) nor (2)
If you are building from a release tarball, you should be able to
safely use 'nodownload' since upstream is expected to ship all
required sources with the tarball.
If you are building from a git repository, you will want to use
'nofallback' so that any 'copylib' wraps will be download as
subprojects.
Note that these options do not affect subprojects that are git
submodules since those are only usable in git repositories, and you
almost always want to download them.
