# Pkgconfig module |
|
|
|
This module is a simple generator for |
|
[pkg-config](https://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/) files. |
|
|
|
## Usage |
|
|
|
To use this module, just do: **`pkg = import('pkgconfig')`**. The |
|
following function will then be available as `pkg.generate()`. You |
|
can, of course, replace the name `pkg` with anything else. |
|
|
|
### pkg.generate() |
|
|
|
The generated file's properties are specified with the following |
|
keyword arguments. |
|
|
|
- `description` a string describing the library |
|
- `extra_cflags` a list of extra compiler flags to be added to the |
|
`Cflags` field after the header search path |
|
- `filebase`, the base name to use for the pkg-config file, as an |
|
example the value of `libfoo` would produce a pkg-config file called |
|
`libfoo.pc` |
|
- `install_dir` the directory to install to, defaults to the value of |
|
option `libdir` followed by `/pkgconfig` |
|
- `libraries` a list of built libraries (usually results of |
|
shared_library) that the user needs to link against. Arbitraty strings can |
|
also be provided and they will be added into the `Libs` field. Since 0.45.0 |
|
dependencies of built libraries will be automatically added to `Libs.private` |
|
field. If a dependency is provided by pkg-config then it will be added in |
|
`Requires.private` instead. Other type of dependency objects can also be passed |
|
and will result in their `link_args` and `compile_args` to be added to `Libs` |
|
and `Cflags` fields. |
|
- `libraries_private` list of built libraries or strings to put in the |
|
`Libs.private` field. Since 0.45.0 it can also contain dependency objects, |
|
their `link_args` will be added to `Libs.private`. |
|
- `name` the name of this library |
|
- `subdirs` which subdirs of `include` should be added to the header |
|
search path, for example if you install headers into |
|
`${PREFIX}/include/foobar-1`, the correct value for this argument |
|
would be `foobar-1` |
|
- `requires` list of strings, pkgconfig-dependencies or libraries that |
|
`pkgconfig.generate()` was used on to put in the `Requires` field |
|
- `requires_private` same as `requires` but for `Requires.private` field |
|
field |
|
- `url` a string with a url for the library |
|
- `variables` a list of strings with custom variables to add to the |
|
generated file. The strings must be in the form `name=value` and may |
|
reference other pkgconfig variables, |
|
e.g. `datadir=${prefix}/share`. The names `prefix`, `libdir` and |
|
`installdir` are reserved and may not be used. |
|
- `version` a string describing the version of this library |
|
- `d_module_versions` a list of module version flags used when compiling |
|
D sources referred to by this pkg-config file
