ability to depend on zig modules #14278
Comments
How are you supposed to handle pure zig packages which in turn depend on for example system libraries? Are you supposed to create a const lib = b.addStaticLibrary("a", "a.zig");
lib.linkSystemLibrary("some-system-library");
lib.linkLibC();
const module = b.addModule("a", "a.zig"); const module = b.addModule("a", "a.zig");
module.linkSystemLibrary("some-system-library");
module.linkLibC(); |
New API introduced: std.Build.addModule This function exposes a zig module with the given name, which can be used by packages that depend on this one via std.Build.Dependency.module. std.Build.Pkg and related functionality is deleted. Every use case has a straightforward upgrade path using the new Module struct. std.Build.OptionsStep.getPackage is replaced by std.Build.OptionsStep.createModule. std.Build.CompileStep.addPackagePath is replaced by std.Build.CompileStep.addAnonymousModule. This partially addresses #14307 by renaming some of the instances of "package" to "module". Closes #14278

Nice to see the evolution in package management! FWIW - I'm caching these changes in my toy project https://github.com/korandoru/zig-uuid to demonstrate the usage for new build APIs. |
Extracted from #14265.
Terminology clarification: #14307
Something like this:
build.zig.zon
build.zig
The build.zig file for clap:
See #14282 for depending on pure zig modules without executing build.zig logic.
See #14286 for running build.zig logic in a sandbox.
