v.pkgconfig =========== This module implements the `pkg-config` tool as a library in pure V. Features: * Simple API, but still not stable, but shouldnt change much * Runs 2x faster than original pkg-config * Commandline tool that aims to be compatible with `pkg-config` * Resolve full path for `.pc` file given a name * Recursively parse all the dependencies * Find and replace all inner variables * Integration with V, so you can just do `#pkgconfig r_core` Todo/Future/Wish: * 100% compatibility with `pkg-config` options * Strictier pc parsing logic, with better error reporting Example ------- The commandline tool is available in `vlib/v/pkgconfig/bin/pkgconfig.v` ``` $ ./bin/pkgconfig -h pkgconfig 0.3.0 ----------------------------------------------- Usage: pkgconfig [options] [ARGS] Options: -V, --modversion show version of module -d, --description show pkg module description -h, --help show this help message -D, --debug show debug information -l, --list-all list all pkgmodules -e, --exists return 0 if pkg exists -V, --print-variables display variable names -r, --print-requires display requires of the module -a, --atleast-version return 0 if pkg version is at least the given one --exact-version return 0 if pkg version is at least the given one -v, --version show version of this tool -c, --cflags output all pre-processor and compiler flags -I, --cflags-only-I show only -I flags from CFLAGS --cflags-only-other show cflags without -I -s, --static show --libs for static linking -l, --libs output all linker flags --libs-only-l show only -l from ldflags -L, --libs-only-L show only -L from ldflags --libs-only-other show flags not containing -l or -L $ ``` Using the API in your own programs: ```v import v.pkgconfig opt := pkgconfig.Options{} mut pc := pkgconfig.load('expat', opt) or { panic(err) } println(pc.libs) ``` ... will produce something like this: ``` ['-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu', '-lexpat'] ```
