buildBuild the meta_tools.release package
$ qbt build --package meta_tools.release
Build all packages in the repo meta_tools
$ qbt build --repo meta_tools
Build all packages in the manifest with maximum parallelism and log level set to debug
$ qbt build --all -J --logLevel=DEBUG
Build the meta_tools.release package and place its artifacts in a tarball located in /tmp/meta_tools.release-CV.tar.gz where “CV” is the cumulative version.
$ qbt build --package meta_tools.release --output requested,tarball,/tmp/%p-%v.tar.gz
Build the meta_tools.release package and place its artifacts in a directory located in /tmp/out.
$ qbt build --package meta_tools.release --output requested,directory,/tmp/out
Build place the meta_tools.release package's artifacts in a tarball located in /tmp/meta_tools.release-CV.tar.gz but require it to be a cache hit - if the package is not already built, do not build it, instead fail the build. The --no-builds argument can be used with any build command to ensure nothing builds and instead just verify certain packages are present in the cache.
$ qbt build --package meta_tools.release --output requested,tarball,/tmp/%p-%v.tar.gz --no-builds
Build all packages contained in all overrides
$ qbt build --overrides
Build the package misc1.commons.concurrent.main and all packages that depend upon it, directly or transitively
$ qbt build --package misc1.commons.concurrent.main --outward
The commands --groovyPackages and --verifyGroovy let you specify arbitrarily complex code snippets that describe what packages to build.
For example, you can do packages which are inwards of the repository “3p” like this:
$ qbt build --groovyPackages 'inward(r("3p"))'
Useful functions include: inward, outward, overrides, p("pkg_name"), r("repo_name")
$ qbt build --groovyPackage '[]'
See Common Options for options shared by most or all commands.
qbt build is the command for issuing QBT builds. Builds do not always occur as a result of this command, however, as artifacts may be detected in the cache. Builds will only occur if there are no cached artifacts for a particular package at its current CV.
