\page buildmeson Build a Discord Bot Using Meson
|
|
|
|
## 1. Toolchain
|
|
|
|
Before compiling, you will need to install `meson` on your system. To be sure that `meson` is installed, you can type the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
meson --version
|
|
0.63.2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 2. Create a Meson project
|
|
|
|
First, you'll need to go ahead and create an empty directory, we'll call it `meson-project`.
|
|
|
|
Then, run this command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
meson init -l cpp
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 3. Configuring Your Meson Project
|
|
|
|
Add the following line after the `project()` line in your `meson.build` file.
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
dpp = dependency('dpp')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Add the following line in the executable section of your `meson.build` file.
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
dependencies: [dpp]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Change the `cpp_std` value in the `project()` to `c++17`. Your `meson.build` should look like this:
|
|
|
|
your meson.build should look like this.
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~yml
|
|
project('discord-bot', 'cpp',
|
|
version : '0.1',
|
|
default_options : ['warning_level=3',
|
|
'cpp_std=c++17'])
|
|
|
|
dpp = dependency('dpp')
|
|
|
|
exe = executable('discord', 'discord_bot.cpp',
|
|
install : true, dependencies: [dpp])
|
|
|
|
test('basic', exe)
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Meson automatically generates a cpp for your project. And a test suite.
|
|
|
|
## 4. Building
|
|
|
|
To build a Meson project, run the following:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
meson setup builddir
|
|
meson compile -C builddir
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, your Meson project should be all setup!
