### Building ### Building
By now, there are several targets in the Makefile, fulfilling following roles: We use `make` to automate the build process (as `cargo` is not (yet?) able to
build several applications at once).
Make sure to _not_ include some `-j 8` arguments, as cargo parallelizes the
build process on its own. If you parallelize it with make, you end up with a
really high load on your system.
* `all` is the default and builds every crate in debug mode. There are several targets for each of the sub-crates in the Makefile:
To build a single module, call `make <module>`, for example `make imag-store`.
* `release`, as the name implies, builds every module in release mode. | Target | Multi | Purpose | Example |
E.G.: `make imag-store-release` to build "imag-store" in release mode. | :--- | ----- | :--- | :--- |
* `install` will install all commandline modules to the default installation | all | | Build everything, debug mode | `make all` |
root (see `man cargo-install`). | bin | | Build all binaries, debug mode | `make bin` |
To install a single module, run `make <module>-install`, | lib | | Build all libraries, debug mode | `make lib` |
E.G.: `make imag-store-install` | lib-test | | Test all libraries | `make lib-test` |
* `bin`/`lib` are separate targets for either building all binaries or | imag-bin | | Build only the `imag` binary, debug mode | `make imag-bin` |
libraries. | check | * | Run `cargo check` | `make check` |
* `lib-test` runs `cargo test` for all libraries. | clean | * | Remove build artifacts | `make clean` |
For testing a single library, E.G.: `make test-libimagstore`. | install | * | Build everything, release mode, install | `make install` |
* `clean` will run `cargo clean` in every crate. | release | * | Build everything, release mode | `make release` |
For cleaning a single crate, use `make imag-store-clean` for example. | update | * | Run `cargo update` | `make update` |
* to build _only_ the `imag` binary, use the target `imag-bin`
(`imag-bin-release` for release build, `imag-bin-clean` for `cargo clean`ing). The `Multi` targets are callable for each sub-crate. For example you can call
`make imag-bookmark-check` to run `cargo check` on the `imag-bookmark` subcrate.
