We were assuming that meson project correspond to our projects and so we
were always building them, even if they were already compiled.
(This way, a simple `kiwix-build` is enough to recompile the WIP code of
our project).
However, on the CI, we do not archive the source code/build directory in
the base deps archive. So when we try to compile, the compile step of
meson projects fails because the source are not here.
We have a small workaround for pugixml but as zstd is also meson, it is
time to do something correct.
By default, all projects now try to skip if a build is already present.
Our projects are marked as `force_build` and so, they do not try to skip.
We simply do a `git merge --ff-only` instead of a `git reset`. This way:
- No change on the local repository
=> update to `remote/master`
- If you switch branch and local branch is behind `remote/master`
=> fast forward to `remote/master`
- If you switch branch and branches diverge
=> No update of the directory
- On branch master (or a branch behind `origin/master`) with compatible
change in the working tree.
=> update of the directory
- On branch master (or a branch behind `origin/master`) but incompatible
change in the working tree.
=> No update.
This way, sources are keep up-to-date as far as possible.
Instead of having the run_command function setting the
env from the buildEnv, this is the dependency that create the
env and then pass it to the run_command function.
This way, each dependency will be able to set a specific env.
This commit add a first version code to build a flatpak of kiwix-desktop.
It is mainly based on the PR #254 of @birros (hence he is the author of this commit)
However there is some differences :
- I (@mgautier) create a new builder to run the flatpak build instead of using a new
dependency.
- Use the flatpak platform to install org.kde.Platform and org.kde.Sdk
This code version doesn't correctly work but I wanted to commit the birros' code
without too many modification (even if there is a lot).
Make kiwix-build installable using pip.
Module is now called `kiwixbuild` because `kiwix-build` is not a valid
python identifier.
Also split toolchains in separated directory.
