Project configuration

The project configuration file should be named project.conf and be located at the project root. It holds information such as Source aliases relevant for the sources used in the given project as well as overrides for the configuration of element types used in the project.

Values specified in the project configuration override any of the default BuildStream project configuration, which is included here for reference.

Essentials

Project name

The project name is a unique symbol for your project and will be used to distinguish your project from others in user preferences, namespacing of your project’s artifacts in shared artifact caches, and in any case where BuildStream needs to distinguish between multiple projects.

The first thing to setup in your project.conf should be the name of your project.

name: my-project-name

The project name may contain alphanumeric characters, dashes and underscores, and may not start with a leading digit.

Attention

The project name must be specified in the project.conf and cannot be included from a separate file.

Minimum version

The BuildStream format is guaranteed to be backwards compatible with any earlier minor point releases, which is to say that BuildStream 1.4 can read projects written for BuildStream 1.0, and that BuildStream 2.2 can read projects written for BuildStream 2.0.

Projects are required to specify the minimum version of BuildStream which it requires, this allows project authors to convey a useful error message to their users and peers, in the case that a user needs to get a newer version of BuildStream in order to work with a given project.

The project’s minimum required BuildStream version must be specified in project.conf using the min-version field, e.g.:

# This project uses features which were added in 2.2
min-version: 2.2

It is recommended that when using new features, always consult this documentation and observe which BuildStream version a feature you are using was added in. If a feature in the BuildStream YAML format is not documented with a specific Since version, you can assume that it has been there from the beginning.

Note

External Element and Source plugins also implement their own YAML configuration fragments and as such are revisioned separately from the core format.

Attention

The min-version must be specified in the project.conf and cannot be included from a separate file.

Element path

To allow the user to structure their project nicely, BuildStream allows the user to specify a project subdirectory where element .bst files are stored.

element-path: elements

Note that elements are referred to by their relative paths, whenever elements are referred to in a .bst file or on the command line.

Attention

The element-path can only be specified in the project.conf and cannot be included from a separate file.

Ref storage

By default, BuildStream expects to read and write source references directly in the source declaration, but this can be inconvenient and prohibitive in some workflows.

Alternatively, BuildStream allows source references to be stored centrally in a project.refs file in the toplevel project directory.

This can be controlled with the ref-storage option, which is allowed to be configured with the following values:

  • inline

    Source references are stored directly in the source declaration

  • project.refs

    Source references are stored in the project.refs file, and junction source references are stored in the junction.refs file.

To enable storing of source references in project.refs, add the following to your project.conf:

ref-storage: project.refs

Attention

Storing subproject source references in project.refs

When using the project.refs file, it is possible to override the references in subprojects by editing the project.refs file directly or by using bst source track –cross-junctions, this can be practical to try out fresher versions of components which are maintained in a subproject.

It should be noted however that overridden subproject source references listed in your project.refs file will be ignored by projects which use your project as a subproject.

Configurable Warnings

Warnings can be configured as fatal using the fatal-warnings configuration item. When a warning is configured as fatal, where a warning would usually be thrown instead an error will be thrown causing the build to fail.

Individual warnings can be configured as fatal by setting fatal-warnings to a list of warnings.

fatal-warnings:
- overlaps
- ref-not-in-track
- <plugin>:<warning>

BuildStream provides a collection of Core Warnings which may be raised by a variety of plugins. Other configurable warnings are plugin specific and should be noted within their individual documentation.

Source aliases

In order to abstract the download location of source code and any assets which need to be downloaded, and also as a matter of convenience, BuildStream allows one to create named aliases for URLs which are to be used in the individual .bst files.

aliases:
  foo: git://git.foo.org/
  bar: http://bar.com/downloads/

Sandbox options

Sandbox options for the whole project can be supplied in project.conf in the same way as in an element. See element configuration for more detail.

# Specify a user id and group id to use in the build sandbox.
sandbox:
  build-uid: 1003
  build-gid: 1001

Artifact server

When maintaining a BuildStream project, it can be convenient to downstream users of your project to provide access to a cache server you maintain.

The project can provide recommended artifact cache servers through project configuration using the same semantics as one normally uses in the servers list of the cache server user configuration:

#
# A remote cache from which to download prebuilt artifacts
#
artifacts:
- url: https://foo.com:11001
  auth:
    server-cert: server.crt

Attention

Unlike user configuration, the filenames provided in the auth configuration block are relative to the project directory.

It is recommended to include public keys such as the server-cert along with your project so that downstream users can have automatic read access to your project.

To provide write access to downstream users, it is recommended that the required private keys such as the client-key be provided to users out of band, and require that users configure write access separately in their own user configuration.

Source cache server

In the same way as artifact cache servers, the project can provide recommended source cache servers through project configuration using the same semantics as one normally uses in the servers list of the cache server user configuration:

#
# A remote cache from which to download prestaged sources
#
source-caches:
- url: https://foo.com:11001
  auth:
    server-cert: server.crt

Attention

Unlike user configuration, the filenames provided in the auth configuration block are relative to the project directory.

It is recommended to include public keys such as the server-cert along with your project so that downstream users can have automatic read access to your project.

To provide write access to downstream users, it is recommended that the required private keys such as the client-key be provided to users out of band, and require that users configure write access separately in their own user configuration.

Mirrors

A list of mirrors can be defined that couple a location to a mapping of aliases to a list of URIs, e.g.

mirrors:
- name: middle-earth
  aliases:
    foo:
    - http://www.middle-earth.com/foo/1
    - http://www.middle-earth.com/foo/2
    bar:
    - http://www.middle-earth.com/bar/1
    - http://www.middle-earth.com/bar/2
- name: oz
  aliases:
    foo:
    - http://www.oz.com/foo
    bar:
    - http://www.oz.com/bar

The order that the mirrors (and the URIs therein) are consulted is in the order they are defined when fetching, and in reverse-order when tracking.

The mirrors can be overridden on a per project basis using user configuration. One can also specify which mirror should be used first in the user configuration, or using the –default-mirror command-line argument.

Loading plugins

If your project makes use of any custom Element or Source plugins, then the project must inform BuildStream of the plugins it means to make use of and the origin from which they can be loaded.

Note that plugins with the same name from different origins are not permitted.

Attention

The plugins can only be specified in the project.conf and cannot be included from a separate file.

Local plugins

Local plugins are expected to be found in a subdirectory of the actual BuildStream project. Element and Source plugins should be stored in separate directories to avoid namespace collisions, you can achieve this by specifying a separate origin for sources and elements.

plugins:

- origin: local
  path: plugins/sources

  # We want to use the `mysource` source plugin located in our
  # project's `plugins/sources` subdirectory.
  sources:
  - mysource

There is no strict versioning policy for plugins loaded from the local origin because the plugin is provided with the project data and as such, it is considered to be completely deterministic.

Usually your project will be managed by a VCS like git, and any changes to your local plugins may have an impact on your project, such as changes to the artifact cache keys produced by elements which use these plugins. Changes to plugins might provide new YAML configuration options, changes in the semantics of existing configurations or even removal of existing YAML configurations.

Pip plugins

Plugins loaded from the pip origin are expected to be installed separately on the host operating system using python’s package management system.

plugins:

- origin: pip

  # Specify the name of the python package containing
  # the plugins we want to load. The name one would use
  # on the `pip install` command line.
  #
  package-name: potato

  # We again must specify specifically which plugins we
  # want loaded from this origin.
  #
  elements:
  - starch

Unlike local plugins, plugins loaded from the pip origin are loaded from the active python environment, and as such you do not usually have full control over the plugins your project uses unless one uses strict version constraints.

The official plugin packages maintained by the BuildStream community are guaranteed to be fully API stable. If one chooses to load these plugins from the pip origin, then it is recommended to use minimal bound dependency constraints when using official plugin packages so as to be sure that you have access to all the features you intend to use in your project.

Versioning constraints

When loading plugins from the pip plugin origin, it is possible to specify constraints on the versions of packages you want to load your plugins from.

The syntax for specifying versioning constraints is the same format supported by the pip package manager.

Note

In order to be certain that versioning constraints work properly, plugin packages should be careful to adhere to PEP 440, Version Identification and Dependency Specification.

Here are a couple of examples:

Specifying minimal bound dependencies:

plugins:

- origin: pip

  # This project uses the API stable potato project and
  # requires features from at least version 1.2
  #
  package-name: potato>=1.2

Specifying exact versions:

plugins:

- origin: pip

  # This project requires plugins from the potato
  # project at exactly version 1.2.3
  #
  package-name: potato==1.2.3

Specifying version constraints:

plugins:

- origin: pip

  # This project requires plugins from the potato
  # project from version 1.2.3 onward until 1.3.
  #
  package-name: potato>=1.2.3,<1.3

Important

Unstable plugin packages

When using unstable plugins loaded from the pip origin, the installed plugins can sometimes be incompatible with your project.

Use virtual environments

Your operating system’s default python environment can only have one version of a given package installed at a time, if you work on multiple BuildStream projects on the same host, they may not agree on which versions of plugins to use.

In order to guarantee that you can use a specific version of a plugin, you may need to install BuildStream into a virtual environment in order to control which python package versions are available when using your project.

Follow these instructions to install BuildStream in a virtual environment.

Possible junction conflicts

If you have multiple projects which are connected through junction elements, these projects can disagree on which version of a plugin is needed from the pip origin.

Since only one version of a given plugin package can be installed at a time in a given python environment, you must ensure that all projects connected through junction elements agree on which versions of API unstable plugin packages to use.

Junction plugins

Junction plugins are loaded from another project which your project has a junction declaration for. Plugins are loaded directly from the referenced project, the source and element plugins listed will simply be loaded from the subproject regardless of how they were defined in that project.

Plugins loaded from a junction might even come from another junction and be deeply nested.

plugins:

- origin: junction

  # Specify the local junction name declared in your
  # project as the origin from where to load plugins from.
  #
  junction: subproject-junction.bst

  # Here we want to get the `frobnicate` element
  # from the subproject and use it in our project.
  #
  elements:
  - frobnicate

Plugins loaded across junction boundaries will be loaded in the context of your project, and any default values set in the project.conf of the junctioned project will be ignored when resolving the defaults provided with element plugins.

It is recommended to use include directives in the case that the referenced plugins from junctioned projects depend on variables defined in the project they come from, in this way you can include variables needed by your plugins into your own project.conf.

Tip

Distributing plugins as projects

It is encouraged that people use BuildStream projects to distribute plugins which are intended to be shared among projects, especially when these plugins are not guaranteed to be completely API stable. This can still be done while also distributing your plugins as pip packages at the same time.

This can be achieved by simply creating a repository or tarball which contains only the plugins you want to distribute, along with a project.conf file declaring these plugins as local plugins.

Using plugins which are distributed as local plugins in a BuildStream project ensures that you always have full control over which exact plugin your project is using at all times, without needing to store the plugin as a local plugin in your own project.

Suppressing deprecation warnings

Plugins can be deprecated over time, and using deprecated plugins will trigger a warning when loading elements and sources which use deprecated plugin kinds.

These deprecation warnings can be suppressed for the entire plugin origin or on a per plugin kind basis.

To suppress all deprecation warnings from the origin, set the allow-deprecated flag for the origin as follows:

plugins:

- origin: local
  path: plugins/sources

  # Suppress deprecation warnings for any plugins loaded here
  allow-deprecated: True

  sources:
  - mysource

In order to suppress deprecation warnings for a single element or source kind within an origin, you will have to use a dictionary to declare the specific plugin kind and set the allow-deprecated flag on that dictionary as follows:

plugins:

- origin: pip
  package-name: potato

  # Here we use a dictionary to declare the "starch"
  # element kind, and specify that it is allowed to
  # be deprecated.
  #
  elements:
  - kind: starch
    allow-deprecated: True

Options

Options are how BuildStream projects can define parameters which can be configured by users invoking BuildStream to build your project.

Options are declared in the project.conf in the main options dictionary.

options:
  debug:
    type: bool
    description: Whether to enable debugging
    default: False

Project options can be specified on the command line using bst –option …

Note

The name of the option may contain alphanumeric characters underscores, and may not start with a leading digit.

Common properties

All option types accept the following common attributes

  • type

    Indicates the type of option to declare

  • description

    A description of the meaning of the option

  • variable

    Optionally indicate a variable name to export the option to. A string form of the selected option will be used to set the exported value.

    If used, this value will override any existing value for the variable declared in project.conf, and will be overridden in the regular composition order.

    Note

    The name of the variable to export may contain alphanumeric characters, dashes, underscores, and may not start with a leading digit.

Boolean

The bool option type allows specifying boolean values which can be cased in conditional expressions.

Declaring

options:
  debug:
    type: bool
    description: Whether to enable debugging
    default: False

Evaluating

Boolean options can be tested in expressions with equality tests:

variables:
  enable-debug: False
  (?):
  - debug == True:
      enable-debug: True

Or simply treated as truthy values:

variables:
  enable-debug: False
  (?):
  - debug:
      enable-debug: True

Exporting

When exporting boolean options as variables, a True option value will be exported as 1 and a False option as 0

Enumeration

The enum option type allows specifying a string value with a restricted set of possible values.

Declaring

options:
  loglevel:
    type: enum
    description: The logging level
    values:
    - debug
    - info
    - warning
    default: info

Evaluating

Enumeration options must be tested as strings in conditional expressions:

variables:
  enable-debug: False
  (?):
  - loglevel == "debug":
      enable-debug: True

Exporting

When exporting enumeration options as variables, the value is exported as a variable directly, as it is a simple string.

Flags

The flags option type allows specifying a list of string values with a restricted set of possible values.

In contrast with the enum option type, the default value need not be specified and will default to an empty set.

Declaring

options:
  logmask:
    type: flags
    description: The logging mask
    values:
    - debug
    - info
    - warning
    default:
    - info

Evaluating

Options of type flags can be tested in conditional expressions using a pythonic in syntax to test if an element is present in a set:

variables:
  enable-debug: False
  (?):
  - ("debug" in logmask):
      enable-debug: True

Exporting

When exporting flags options as variables, the value is exported as a comma separated list of selected value strings.

Architecture

The arch option type is a special enumeration option which defaults via uname -m results to the following list.

  • aarch32

  • aarch64

  • aarch64-be

  • power-isa-be

  • power-isa-le

  • sparc-v9

  • x86-32

  • x86-64

The reason for this, opposed to using just uname -m, is that we want an OS-independent list, as well as several results mapping to the same architecture (e.g. i386, i486 etc. are all x86-32). It does not support assigning any default in the project configuration.

options:
  machine_arch:
    type: arch
    description: The machine architecture
    values:
    - aarch32
    - aarch64
    - x86-32
    - x86-64

Architecture options can be tested with the same expressions as other Enumeration options.

OS

The os option type is a special enumeration option, which defaults to the results of uname -s. It does not support assigning any default in the project configuration.

options:
  machine_os:
    type: os
    description: The machine OS
    values:
    - Linux
    - SunOS
    - Darwin
    - FreeBSD

Os options can be tested with the same expressions as other Enumeration options.

Element mask

The element-mask option type is a special Flags option which automatically allows only element names as values.

options:
  debug_elements:
    type: element-mask
    description: The elements to build in debug mode

This can be convenient for automatically declaring an option which might apply to any element, and can be tested with the same syntax as other Flag options.

variables:
  enable-debug: False
  (?):
  - ("element.bst" in debug_elements):
      enable-debug: True

Junctions

In this section of project.conf, we can define the relationship a project has with junction elements in the same project, or even in subprojects.

Sometimes when your project has multiple junction elements, a situation can arise where you have multiple instances of the same project loaded at the same time. In most cases, you will want to reconcile this conflict by ensuring that your projects share the same junction. In order to reconcile conflicts by ensuring nested junctions to the same project are shared, please refer to the documentation on nested junctions.

In some exceptional cases, it is entirely intentional and appropriate to use the same project more than once in the same build pipeline. The attributes in the junctions group here in project.conf provide some tools you can use to explicitly allow the coexistence of the same project multiple times.

Duplicate junctions

In the case that you are faced with an error due to subprojects sharing a common sub-subproject, you can use the duplicates configuration in order to allow the said project to be loaded twice.

Example:

junctions:

  duplicates:

    # Here we use the packaging tooling completely separately from
    # the payload that we are packaging, they are never staged to
    # the same location in a given sandbox, and as such we would
    # prefer to allow the 'runtime' project to be loaded separately.
    #
    # This statement will ensure that loading the 'runtime' project
    # from these two locations will not produce any errors.
    #
    runtime:
    - payload.bst:runtime.bst
    - packaging.bst:runtime.bst

When considering duplicated projects in the same pipeline, all instances of the said project need to be marked as duplicates in order to avoid a conflicting junction error at load time.

Tip

The declaration of duplicates is inherited by any dependant projects which may later decide to depend on your project.

If you depend on a project which itself has duplicates, and you need to duplicate it again, then you only need to declare the new duplicate, you do not need to redeclare duplicates redundantly.

Internal junctions

Another way to avoid conflicting junction errors when you know that your subproject should not conflict with other instances of the same subproject, is to declare the said subproject as internal.

Example:

junctions:

  # Declare this subproject as "internal" because we know
  # that we only use it for build dependencies, and as such
  # we know that it cannot collide with elements in dependant
  # projects.
  #
  internal:
  - special-compiler.bst

When compared to duplicates above, internal projects have the advantage of never producing any conflicting junction errors in dependant projects (reverse dependency projects).

This approach is preferrable in cases where you know for sure that dependant projects will not be depending directly on elements from your internal subproject.

Attention

Declaring a junction as internal is a promise that dependant projects will not accrue runtime dependencies on elements in your internal subproject.

Element default configuration

The project.conf plays a role in defining elements by providing default values and also by overriding values declared by plugins on a plugin wide basis.

See the composition documentation for more detail on how elements are composed.

Variables

The defaults for Variables used in your project is defined here.

variables:
  prefix: "/usr"

Environment

The defaults environment for the build sandbox is defined here.

environment:
  PATH: /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

Additionally, the special environment-nocache list which specifies which environment variables do not affect build output, and are thus not considered in the calculation of artifact keys can be defined here.

environment-nocache:
- MAXJOBS

Note that the environment-nocache list only exists so that we can control parameters such as make -j ${MAXJOBS}, allowing us to control the number of jobs for a given build without affecting the resulting cache key.

Split rules

The project wide split rules defaults can be specified here.

split-rules:
  devel:
  - |
    %{includedir}
  - |
    %{includedir}/**
  - |
    %{libdir}/lib*.a
  - |
    %{libdir}/lib*.la

Overriding plugin defaults

Base attributes declared by element and source plugins can be overridden on a project wide basis. This section explains how to make project wide statements which augment the configuration of an element or source plugin.

Element overrides

The elements dictionary can be used to override variables, environments or plugin specific configuration data as shown below.

elements:

  # Override default values for all autotools elements
  autotools:

    variables:
      bindir: "%{prefix}/bin"

    config:
      configure-commands: ...

    environment:
      PKG_CONFIG_PATH=%{libdir}/pkgconfig

Source overrides

The sources dictionary can be used to override source plugin specific configuration data as shown below.

sources:

  # Override default values for all git sources
  git:

    config:
      checkout-submodules: False

Customizing the shell

Since BuildStream cannot know intimate details about your host or about the nature of the runtime and software that you are building, the shell environment for debugging and testing applications may need some help.

The shell section allows some customization of the shell environment.

Interactive shell command

By default, BuildStream will use sh -i when running an interactive shell, unless a specific command is given to the bst shell command.

BuildStream will automatically set a convenient prompt via the PS1 environment variable for interactive shells; which might be overwritten depending on the shell you use in your runtime.

If you are using bash, we recommend the following configuration to ensure that the customized prompt is not overwritten:

shell:

  # Specify the command to run by default for interactive shells
  command: [ 'bash', '--noprofile', '--norc', '-i' ]

Environment assignments

In order to cooperate with your host environment, a debugging shell sometimes needs to be configured with some extra knowledge inheriting from your host environment.

This can be achieved by setting up the shell environment configuration, which is expressed as a dictionary very similar to the default environment, except that it supports host side environment variable expansion in values.

For example, to share your host DISPLAY and DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environments with debugging shells for your project, specify the following:

shell:

  # Share some environment variables from the host environment
  environment:
    DISPLAY: '$DISPLAY'
    DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS: '$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS'

Or, a more complex example is how one might share the host pulseaudio server with a bst shell environment:

shell:

  # Set some environment variables explicitly
  environment:
    PULSE_SERVER: 'unix:${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/pulse/native'

Host files

It can be useful to share some files on the host with a shell so that it can integrate better with the host environment.

The host-files configuration allows one to specify files and directories on the host to be bind mounted into the sandbox.

Warning

One should never mount directories where one expects to find data and files which belong to the user, such as /home on POSIX platforms.

This is because the unsuspecting user may corrupt their own files accidentally as a result. Instead users can use the --mount option of bst shell to mount data into the shell.

The host-files configuration is an ordered list of mount specifications.

Members of the list can be fully specified as a dictionary, or a simple string can be used if only the defaults are required.

The fully specified dictionary has the following members:

  • path

    The path inside the sandbox. This is the only mandatory member of the mount specification.

  • host_path

    The host path to mount at path in the sandbox. This will default to path if left unspecified.

  • optional

    Whether the mount should be considered optional. This is False by default.

Here is an example of a fully specified mount specification:

shell:

  # Mount an arbitrary resolv.conf from the host to
  # /etc/resolv.conf in the sandbox, and avoid any
  # warnings if the host resolv.conf doesnt exist.
  host-files:
  - host_path: '/usr/local/work/etc/resolv.conf'
    path: '/etc/resolv.conf'
    optional: True

Here is an example of using shorthand mount specifications:

shell:

  # Specify a list of files to mount in the sandbox
  # directory from the host.
  #
  # If these do not exist on the host, a warning will
  # be issued but the shell will still be launched.
  host-files:
  - '/etc/passwd'
  - '/etc/group'
  - '/etc/resolv.conf'

Host side environment variable expansion is also supported:

shell:

  # Mount a host side pulseaudio server socket into
  # the shell environment at the same location.
  host-files:
  - '${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/pulse/native'

Default targets

When running BuildStream commands from a project directory or subdirectory without specifying any target elements on the command line, the default targets of the project will be used. The default targets can be configured in the defaults section as follows:

defaults:

  # List of default target elements
  targets:
  - app.bst

If no default targets are configured in project.conf, BuildStream commands will default to all .bst files in the configured element path.

Commands that cannot support junctions as target elements (bst build, bst artifact push, and bst artifact pull) ignore junctions in the list of default targets.

When running BuildStream commands from a workspace directory (that is not a BuildStream project directory), project default targets are not used and the workspace element will be used as the default target instead.

bst artifact checkout, bst source checkout, and bst shell are currently limited to a single target element and due to this, they currently do not use project default targets. However, they still use the workspace element as default target when run from a workspace directory.

Builtin defaults

BuildStream defines some default values for convenience, the default values overridden by your project’s project.conf are presented here:
