autotools - Autotools build element
===================================
This is a :mod:`BuildElement <buildstream.buildelement>` implementation for
using Autotools build scripts (also known as the `GNU Build System
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Build_System>`_).
You will often want to pass additional arguments to ``configure``. This should
be done on a per-element basis by setting the ``conf-local`` variable. Here is
an example:
.. code:: yaml
variables:
conf-local: |
--disable-foo --enable-bar
If you want to pass extra options to ``configure`` for every element in your
project, set the ``conf-global`` variable in your project.conf file. Here is
an example of that:
.. code:: yaml
elements:
autotools:
variables:
conf-global: |
--disable-gtk-doc --disable-static
Here is the default configuration for the ``autotools`` element in full:
.. literalinclude:: ../../../buildstream/plugins/elements/autotools.yaml
:language: yaml
"""
from buildstream import BuildElement
# Element implementation for the 'autotools' kind.
class AutotoolsElement(BuildElement):
pass
# Plugin entry point
def setup():
return AutotoolsElement
