GStreamer [meson](http://mesonbuild.com/) based repositories aggregrator
You can build GStreamer and all its component at once using
meson and its "subproject" feature.
You can build GStreamer and all its modules at once using
meson and its [subproject](https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/wiki/Subprojects) feature.
## Getting started
We have an helper script to get started, will get the right [meson](http://mesonbuild.com/)
version and get you ready to build. You can just get all GStreamer built running:
### Install meson and ninja
You should get meson through your package manager or using:
$ pip3 install --user meson
You should get `ninja` using your package manager or downloading it from
[here](https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja/releases).
### Build GStreamer and its modules
You can get all GStreamer built running:
```
mkdir build/ && meson build && ninja -C build/
```
NOTE: on fedora (and maybe other distributions) replace `ninja` with `ninja-build`
# Development environment
gst-build also contains a special `uninstalled` target that lets you enter an
uninstalled development environment where you will be able to work on GStreamer easily.
You can get into that environment running:
```
./configure && ninja -C build/
ninja -C build/ uninstalled
```
## GStreamer uninstalled
gst-build also contains a special `uninstalled` target that lets you enter
an uninstalled development environment where you will be able
to work on GStreamer easily.
Inside that environment you will find the GStreamer modules
in subprojects/, you can simply hack in there and to rebuild you
just need to rerun `ninja`.
If your operating system handles symlinks, built modules source code will be available
at the root of `gst-build/` for example GStreamer core will be in `gstreamer/`. Otherwise
they will be present in `subprojects/`. You can simply hack in there and to rebuild you
just need to rerun `ninja -C build/`.
