kde-builder

Easily build KDE components from its source repositories. Drop-in replacement for kdesrc-build. More information: https://kde-builder.kde.org/en/cmdline/cmdline-usage.html.

  • Initialize kde-builder:

kde-builder --initial-setup

  • Compile a KDE component and its dependencies from the source:

kde-builder {{component_name}}

  • Compile a component without updating its local code and without compiling its [D]ependencies:

kde-builder --no-src --no-include-dependencies {{component_name}}

  • [r]efresh the build directories before compiling:

kde-builder --refresh-build {{component_name}}

  • Resume compilation from a specific dependency:

kde-builder --resume-from={{dependency_component}} {{component_name}}

  • Run a component with a specified executable name:

kde-builder --run {{executable_name}}

  • Build all configured components:

kde-builder

  • Use system libraries in place of a component if it fails to build:

kde-builder --no-stop-on-failure {{component_name}}
