It allows integration of multiple projects into a single pipeline. Overview -------- .. code:: yaml kind: junction # Specify the BuildStream project source sources: - kind: git url: upstream:projectname.git track: master ref: d0b38561afb8122a3fc6bafc5a733ec502fcaed6 # Specify the junction configuration config: # Override project options options: machine_arch: "%{machine_arch}" debug: True # Optionally look in a subpath of the source repository for the project path: projects/hello # Optionally specify another junction element to serve as a target for # this element. Target should be defined using the syntax # ``{junction-name}:{element-name}``. # # Note that this option cannot be used in conjunction with sources. target: sub-project.bst:sub-sub-project.bst .. note:: The configuration option to allow specifying junction targets is available since :ref:`format version 24 `. .. note:: Junction elements may not specify any dependencies as they are simply links to other projects and are not in the dependency graph on their own. With a junction element in place, local elements can depend on elements in the other BuildStream project using the additional ``junction`` attribute in the dependency dictionary: .. code:: yaml depends: - junction: toolchain.bst filename: gcc.bst type: build While junctions are elements, only a limited set of element operations is supported. They can be tracked and fetched like other elements. However, junction elements do not produce any artifacts, which means that they cannot be built or staged. It also means that another element cannot depend on a junction element itself. .. note:: BuildStream does not implicitly track junction elements. This means that if we were to invoke: `bst build --track-all ELEMENT` on an element which uses a junction element, the ref of the junction element will not automatically be updated if a more recent version exists. Therefore, if you require the most up-to-date version of a subproject, you must explicitly track the junction element by invoking: `bst source track JUNCTION_ELEMENT`. Furthermore, elements within the subproject are also not tracked by default. For this, we must specify the `--track-cross-junctions` option. This option must be preceeded by `--track ELEMENT` or `--track-all`. Sources ------- ``bst show`` does not implicitly fetch junction sources if they haven't been cached yet. However, they can be fetched explicitly: .. code:: bst source fetch junction.bst Other commands such as ``bst build`` implicitly fetch junction sources. Options ------- .. code:: yaml options: machine_arch: "%{machine_arch}" debug: True Junctions can configure options of the linked project. Options are never implicitly inherited across junctions, however, variables can be used to explicitly assign the same value to a subproject option. .. _core_junction_nested: Nested Junctions ---------------- Junctions can be nested. That is, subprojects are allowed to have junctions on their own. Nested junctions in different subprojects may point to the same project, however, in most use cases the same project should be loaded only once. BuildStream uses the junction element name as key to determine which junctions to merge. It is recommended that the name of a junction is set to the same as the name of the linked project. As the junctions may differ in source version and options, BuildStream cannot simply use one junction and ignore the others. Due to this, BuildStream requires the user to resolve possibly conflicting nested junctions by creating a junction with the same name in the top-level project, which then takes precedence. Targeting other junctions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When working with nested junctions, you can also create a junction element that targets another junction element in the sub-project. This can be useful if you need to ensure that both the top-level project and the sub-project are using the same version of the sub-sub-project. This can be done using the ``target`` configuration option. See below for an example: .. code:: yaml kind: junction config: target: subproject.bst:subsubproject.bst In the above example, this junction element would be targeting the junction element named ``subsubproject.bst`` in the subproject referred to by ``subproject.bst``. Note that when targeting another junction, the names of the junction element must not be the same as the name of the target.
