|
Everything needed to build and debug Hyprland is included inside the provided
|
||
|
|
`devShell`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To use it in the cloned repo, simply run `nix develop`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Build in debug mode
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A debug build is already provided through
|
||
|
|
`hyprland.packages.${pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.system}.hyprland-debug`.
|

## Bisecting an issue
|
||
|
|
|

Follow the
|
||
|
|
[Bisecting an issue](https://wiki.hyprland.org/Crashes-and-Bugs/#bisecting-an-issue)
|
||
|
|
guide. To build, run `nix build '.?submodules=1'`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To view logs, pass the `--print-build-logs` (`-L`) flag.
|
||
|

## Building the Wayland stack with ASan
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Run `nix develop` first, then follow the
|
||
|
|
[Building with ASan](https://wiki.hyprland.org/Crashes-and-Bugs/#bisecting-an-issue)
|
||
|
|
guide.

## Manual building
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Nix works differently than other build systems, so it has its own abstractions
|
||
|
|
over popular build systems such as Meson, CMake and Ninja.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order to manually build Hyprland, you can run the following commands, while
|
||
|
|
in the `nix develop` shell.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For CMake:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
$ cmakeConfigurePhase # to run the CMake configure phase
|
||
|
|
$ ninjaBuildPhase # to run the Ninja build phase
|
||
|
|
$ ninjaInstallPhase # to run the Ninja install phase
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For Meson:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
$ mesonConfigurePhase # to run the Meson configure phase
|
||
|
|
$ ninjaBuildPhase # to run the Ninja build phase
|
||
|
|
$ mesonInstallPhase # to run the Meson install phase
|
||
|
|
```
