# Dependencies
|
|
|
|
## Formats
|
|
|
|
The `[dependencies]` section supports three formats:
|
|
|
|
### String (registry)
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
fmt = "10.1.1"
|
|
spdlog = "1.12"
|
|
catch2 = "3.4.0"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The version string is used as-is for registry lookup.
|
|
|
|
### Table (git)
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
dcr-math = { git = "https://github.com/dexoron/dcr-math-lib.git", tag = "v0.1.0" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Fields: `git`, `branch`, `tag`, `rev`, `mode`, `include`, `lib`, `libs`.
|
|
|
|
### Table (path)
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
mylib = { path = "../mylib" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For a prebuilt external library, specify its layout explicitly. The three
|
|
arrays are paths relative to the dependency root (`include`, `lib`) and linker
|
|
names (`libs`):
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
dcr-math = { path = "../deps/dcr-math", include = ["include"], lib = ["lib"], libs = ["dcr-math"] }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Registry
|
|
|
|
DCR uses a package registry for dependency lookup by name.
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
# ~/.dcr/config.toml
|
|
[registry.default]
|
|
url = "https://index.dcr.dexoron.tech"
|
|
priority = 1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Registry priority: order in `config.toml`. The `DCR_INDEX_PATH` variable overrides the path to `index.json`.
|
|
|
|
## Git dependencies
|
|
|
|
Git dependencies are cloned into `~/.dcr/git/`; their exact checked-out commit is written to `dcr.lock`.
|
|
|
|
Both Git and path dependencies have two modes:
|
|
|
|
* **DCR package:** the source has `dcr.toml`. DCR builds it before the consumer and uses the package name from its manifest for linking.
|
|
* **Prebuilt library:** it provides existing headers and binaries through `include`, `lib`, and `libs`. DCR passes them to the compiler/linker without building the dependency.
|
|
|
|
The mode is normally detected automatically. Use `mode = "build"` or `mode = "prebuild"` when a source contains both a manifest and prebuilt artifacts and you need to choose explicitly.
|
|
|
|
`dcr-math-lib` publishes both forms. Select its prebuilt library explicitly:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
dcr-math = { git = "https://github.com/dexoron/dcr-math-lib.git", tag = "v0.1.0", mode = "prebuild", include = ["include"], lib = ["lib"], libs = ["dcr-math"] }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
DCR supports specifying branch/tag/rev for git sources:
|
|
|
|
* `branch` — switch to a branch
|
|
* `tag` — switch to a tag
|
|
* `rev` — switch to a specific commit
|
|
* `features` — feature flags (parsed, but does not affect build)
|
|
|
|
## Path dependencies
|
|
|
|
Local paths may point at a DCR package or a prebuilt external library. A path DCR package is built before its consumer, including its own path/git dependencies. DCR detects dependency cycles. A prebuilt library is never built by DCR; it is linked from the directories declared in its dependency entry.
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
mylib = { path = "/abs/path/to/lib" }
|
|
mylib = { path = "../relative/path" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For DCR packages, the package name from `dcr.toml` is used for linking (so the dependency key may differ from the library name). Header resolution includes the packaged `target/include` directory and link search includes `target/lib`.
|
|
|
|
### Recommended library layouts
|
|
|
|
Buildable DCR library:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
dcr-math-lib/
|
|
├── dcr.toml
|
|
└── src/
|
|
├── dcr_math.c
|
|
└── dcr_math.h
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Prebuilt library:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
dcr-math-lib/
|
|
├── include/
|
|
│ └── dcr_math.h
|
|
└── lib/
|
|
└── libdcr-math.a # or .so / .lib
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`libs` contains linker names without the `lib` prefix and file extension: use
|
|
`["dcr-math"]` for `libdcr-math.a`.
|
|
|
|
If one repository contains both forms, keep the prebuilt files in `include/` and `lib/` and select the mode explicitly:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
dcr-math = { git = "https://github.com/dexoron/dcr-math-lib.git", tag = "v0.1.0", mode = "prebuild", include = ["include"], lib = ["lib"], libs = ["dcr-math"] }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For a local copy, replace `git` with `path = "../dcr-math-lib"`. In `prebuild` mode DCR does not run the dependency build, even when `dcr.toml` is present.
|
|
|
|
## dcr.lock
|
|
|
|
Dependency lock file. Contains package names and sources.
|
|
|
|
Created during `dcr build` for resolved registry, path, and Git dependencies. Not updated during `dcr add` — only on the next `dcr build`.
|
|
|
|
## Resolution process
|
|
|
|
1. Resolve dependency sources (registry → git → path)
|
|
2. Fetch git dependencies into `~/.dcr/git/` and check out the requested ref
|
|
3. Build DCR package dependencies recursively
|
|
4. Collect `include_dirs`, `lib_dirs`, `libs` for the compiler
