BuildElement - Abstract class for build elements
================================================
The BuildElement class is a convenience element one can derive from for
implementing the most common case of element.

.. _core_buildelement_builtins:

Built-in functionality
----------------------

The BuildElement base class provides built in functionality that could be
overridden by the individual plugins.

This section will give a brief summary of how some of the common features work,
some of them or the variables they use will be further detailed in the following
sections.

The `strip-binaries` variable
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The `strip-binaries` variable is by default **empty**. You need to use the
appropiate commands depending of the system you are building.
If you are targetting Linux, ones known to work are the ones used by the
`freedesktop-sdk <https://freedesktop-sdk.io/>`_, you can take a look to them in their
`project.conf <https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/blob/freedesktop-sdk-18.08.21/project.conf#L74>`_

Location for running commands
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ``command-subdir`` variable sets where the build commands will be executed,
if the directory does not exist it will be created, it is defined relative to
the buildroot.

Location for configuring the project
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ``conf-root`` is defined by default as ``.`` and is the location that
specific build element can use to look for build configuration files. This is
used by elements such as autotools, cmake, distutils, meson, pip and qmake.

The configuration commands are run in ``command-subdir`` and by default
``conf-root`` is ``.`` so if ``conf-root`` is not set the configuration files
in ``command-subdir`` will be used.

By setting ``conf-root`` to ``"%{build-root}/Source/conf_location"`` and your
source elements ``directory`` variable to ``Source`` then the configuration
files in the directory ``conf_location`` with in your Source will be used.
The current working directory when your configuration command is run will still
be wherever you set your ``command-subdir`` to be, regardless of where the
configure scripts are set with ``conf-root``.

.. note::

   The ``conf-root`` variable is available since :ref:`format version 17 <project_format_version>`

Install Location
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You should not change the ``install-root`` variable as it is a special
writeable location in the sandbox but it is useful when writing custom
install instructions as it may need to be supplied as the ``DESTDIR``, please
see the :mod:`cmake <elements.cmake>` build element for example.

Abstract method implementations
-------------------------------

Element.configure_sandbox()
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In :func:`Element.configure_sandbox() <buildstream.element.Element.configure_sandbox>`,
the BuildElement will ensure that the sandbox locations described by the ``%{build-root}``
and ``%{install-root}`` variables are marked and will be mounted read-write for the
:func:`assemble phase<buildstream.element.Element.configure_sandbox>`.

The working directory for the sandbox will be configured to be the ``%{build-root}``,
unless the ``%{command-subdir}`` variable is specified for the element in question,
in which case the working directory will be configured as ``%{build-root}/%{command-subdir}``.


Element.stage()
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In :func:`Element.stage() <buildstream.element.Element.stage>`, the BuildElement
will do the following operations:

* Stage all the dependencies in the :func:`Scope.BUILD <buildstream.element.Scope.BUILD>`
  scope into the sandbox root.

* Run the integration commands for all staged dependencies using
  :func:`Element.integrate() <buildstream.element.Element.integrate>`

* Stage any Source on the given element to the ``%{build-root}`` location
  inside the sandbox, using
  :func:`Element.stage_sources() <buildstream.element.Element.integrate>`


Element.prepare()
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In :func:`Element.prepare() <buildstream.element.Element.prepare>`,
the BuildElement will run ``configure-commands``, which are used to
run one-off preparations that should not be repeated for a single
build directory.


Element.assemble()
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In :func:`Element.assemble() <buildstream.element.Element.assemble>`, the
BuildElement will proceed to run sandboxed commands which are expected to be
found in the element configuration.

Commands are run in the following order:

* ``build-commands``: Commands to build the element
* ``install-commands``: Commands to install the results into ``%{install-root}``
* ``strip-commands``: Commands to strip debugging symbols installed binaries

The result of the build is expected to end up in ``%{install-root}``, and
as such; Element.assemble() method will return the ``%{install-root}`` for
artifact collection purposes.
