Raw Blame History

Meson® is a project to create the best possible next-generation build system.

####Dependencies

####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>

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

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 can be omitted. If you are installing to system directories, you may need to run this command with sudo.

####Contributing

We love code contributions. See the contributing.txt file for details.

The irc channel for Meson is #mesonbuild over at freenode.
