* Package name : justbuild Version : 1.1.0 Upstream Author : Oliver Reiche <oliver.rei...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/just-buildsystem/justbuild * License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: C++, Python Description : Justbuild generic build system Justbuild is a generic build system supporting multi-repository builds. A peculiarity of the tool is the separation between global names and physical location on the one hand, and logical paths used for actions and installation on the other hand (sometimes referred to as "staging"). The language-specific information to translate high-level concepts (libraries, binaries) into individual compile action is taken from user-defined rules described by functional expressions. Justbuild is a build tool that shares similarities with Bazel and Buck2. Our main focus is on reproducible builds. We deeply integrated git in Justbuild to benefit from a-priori computed hashes of git repositories. Furthermore, Justbuild can spawn an execution service that can also be used as a single-node remote execution server for other build systems supporting the same remote execution protocol, such as Bazel and Buck2. We plan to actively maintain this package but are currently looking for a sponsor.
