"""Converts a given gypi file to a python scope and writes the result to stdout.
USING THIS SCRIPT IN CHROMIUM
Forking Python to run this script in the middle of GN is slow, especially on
Windows, and it makes both the GYP and GN files harder to follow. You can't
use "git grep" to find files in the GN build any more, and tracking everything
in GYP down requires a level of indirection. Any calls will have to be removed
and cleaned up once the GYP-to-GN transition is complete.
As a result, we only use this script when the list of files is large and
frequently-changing. In these cases, having one canonical list outweights the
downsides.
As of this writing, the GN build is basically complete. It's likely that all
large and frequently changing targets where this is appropriate use this
mechanism already. And since we hope to turn down the GYP build soon, the time
horizon is also relatively short. As a result, it is likely that no additional
uses of this script should every be added to the build. During this later part
of the transition period, we should be focusing more and more on the absolute
readability of the GN build.
HOW TO USE
It is assumed that the file contains a toplevel dictionary, and this script
will return that dictionary as a GN "scope" (see example below). This script
does not know anything about GYP and it will not expand variables or execute
conditions.
It will strip conditions blocks.
A variables block at the top level will be flattened so that the variables
appear in the root dictionary. This way they can be returned to the GN code.
Say your_file.gypi looked like this:
{
'sources': [ 'a.cc', 'b.cc' ],
'defines': [ 'ENABLE_DOOM_MELON' ],
}
You would call it like this:
gypi_values = exec_script("//build/gypi_to_gn.py",
[ rebase_path("your_file.gypi") ],
"scope",
[ "your_file.gypi" ])
Notes:
- The rebase_path call converts the gypi file from being relative to the
current build file to being system absolute for calling the script, which
will have a different current directory than this file.
- The "scope" parameter tells GN to interpret the result as a series of GN
variable assignments.
- The last file argument to exec_script tells GN that the given file is a
dependency of the build so Ninja can automatically re-run GN if the file
changes.
Read the values into a target like this:
component("mycomponent") {
sources = gypi_values.sources
defines = gypi_values.defines
}
Sometimes your .gypi file will include paths relative to a different
directory than the current .gn file. In this case, you can rebase them to
be relative to the current directory.
sources = rebase_path(gypi_values.sources, ".",
"//path/gypi/input/values/are/relative/to")
This script will tolerate a 'variables' in the toplevel dictionary or not. If
the toplevel dictionary just contains one item called 'variables', it will be
collapsed away and the result will be the contents of that dictinoary. Some
.gypi files are written with or without this, depending on how they expect to
be embedded into a .gyp file.
This script also has the ability to replace certain substrings in the input.
Generally this is used to emulate GYP variable expansion. If you passed the
argument "--replace=<(foo)=bar" then all instances of "<(foo)" in strings in
the input will be replaced with "bar":
gypi_values = exec_script("//build/gypi_to_gn.py",
[ rebase_path("your_file.gypi"),
"--replace=<(foo)=bar"],
"scope",
[ "your_file.gypi" ])
