# Using the WrapDB |
|
|
|
The Wrap database is a web service that provides Meson build |
|
definitions to projects that do not have it natively. Using it is |
|
simple. The service can be found |
|
[here](https://wrapdb.mesonbuild.com). |
|
|
|
The front page lists all projects that are on the service. Select the |
|
one you want and click it. The detail page lists available versions by |
|
branch and revision id. The branch names come from upstream releases |
|
and revision ids are version numbers internal to the database. |
|
Whenever the packaging is updated a new revision is released to the |
|
service a new revision with a bigger revision id is added. Usually you |
|
want to select the newest branch with the highest revision id. |
|
|
|
You can get the actual wrap file which tells Meson how to fetch the |
|
project by clicking on the download link on the page. As an example, |
|
the wrap file for [zlib-1.2.8, revision |
|
4](https://wrapdb.mesonbuild.com/v1/projects/zlib/1.2.8/4/get_wrap) |
|
looks like this. You can find detailed documentation about it in [the |
|
Wrap manual](Wrap-dependency-system-manual.md). |
|
|
|
[wrap-file] |
|
directory = zlib-1.2.8 |
|
|
|
source_url = http://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.8.tar.gz |
|
source_filename = zlib-1.2.8.tar.gz |
|
source_hash = 36658cb768a54c1d4dec43c3116c27ed893e88b02ecfcb44f2166f9c0b7f2a0d |
|
|
|
patch_url = https://wrapdb.mesonbuild.com/v1/projects/zlib/1.2.8/4/get_zip |
|
patch_filename = zlib-1.2.8-4-wrap.zip |
|
patch_hash = 2327a42c8f73a4289ee8c9cd4abc43b324d0decc28d6e609e927f0a50321af4a |
|
|
|
Add this file to your project with the name `subprojects/zlib.wrap`. |
|
Then you can use it in your `meson.build` file with this directive: |
|
|
|
zproj = subproject('zlib') |
|
|
|
When Meson encounters this it will automatically download, unpack and |
|
patch the source files. |
|
|
|
## Contributing build definitions |
|
|
|
The contents of the Wrap database are tracked in git repos of the |
|
[Mesonbuild project](https://github.com/mesonbuild). The actual |
|
process is simple and described in [submission |
|
documentation](Adding-new-projects-to-wrapdb.md).
