mmeson 0.2.0

ccmake for Meson projects

mmeson

TUI to configure Meson projects similar to ccmake for CMake projects

Installation

Via pip

pip install mmeson

Running

python3 -m mmeson path/to/builddir

It is not need to run it in the project's source folder, however you need to setup the project beforehand.

Changed items will start with a star, press enter to edit a filed and enter to exit editing (except fields of type boolean or combo). Press c to configure and exit and q to exit without configuring.

Note: you can always set options via meson configure path/to/builddir -Doption=value in addition to mmeson. This does not reconfigure the project though, this needs to be done via meson setup --reconfigure path/to/builddir. When exiting mmeson with c, it combines both of these steps, while exiting with g does not reconfigure the project. Note that this will happen automatically though when you run meson compile.

Dependencies

• Search function for build option
• Path completion via TAB when editing strings / arrays
• Unit tests and coverage report
