NAME

ninja-utils.eclass - common bits to run app-alternatives/ninja builder

DESCRIPTION

This eclass provides a single function -- eninja -- that can be used to run the ninja builder alike emake. It does not define any dependencies, you need to depend on app-alternatives/ninja yourself. Since ninja is rarely used stand-alone, most of the time this eclass will be used indirectly by the eclasses for other build systems (CMake, Meson).

FUNCTIONS

get_NINJAOPTS: Get the value of NINJAOPTS, inferring them from MAKEOPTS if unset.
eninja [<args>...]: Call Ninja, passing the NINJAOPTS (or converted MAKEOPTS), followed by the supplied arguments. This function dies if ninja fails. It also supports being called via 'nonfatal'.

ECLASS VARIABLES

NINJA ?= ninja (SET BEFORE INHERIT): Specify a compatible ninja implementation to be used by eninja(). At this point only "ninja" and "samu" are explicitly supported, but other values can be set where NINJA_DEPEND will then be set to a blank variable. The default is set to "ninja".
NINJA_DEPEND (GENERATED BY ECLASS): Contains a set of build-time dependencies based on the NINJA setting.
NINJAOPTS: The default set of options to pass to Ninja. Similar to MAKEOPTS, supposed to be set in make.conf. If unset, eninja() will convert MAKEOPTS instead.
NINJA_VERBOSE ?= ON (USER VARIABLE): Set to OFF to disable verbose messages during compilation
