bdep-new - create and initialize new project

bdep new [options] [--no-init] spec [name]
bdep new [options] --config-add|-A cfg-dir [@cfg-name] spec [name]
bdep new [options] --config-create|-C cfg-dir [@cfg-name] spec [name]
         [cfg-args]
bdep new [options] --package [prj-spec] spec [name]
bdep new [options] --source [prj-spec] spec [name]

spec     = [lang] [type] [vcs]
lang     = --lang|-l (c|c++)[,lang-opt...]
type     = --type|-t (exe|lib|bare|empty)[,type-opt...]
vcs      = --vcs|-s (git|none)[,vcs-opt...]
prj-spec = --directory|-d prj-dir
cfg-args = [-- [bpkg-options]] [--existing|-e | (module | cfg-var)...]

The new command creates and initializes a new project (the first three forms), a new package in an already existing project (the --package form), or a new source subdirectory in an already existing project/package (the --source form). All the forms except --source first create according to spec a new build2 project/package called name in the name subdirectory of the current working directory (unless overridden with --output-dir|-o or, in case of --package, with --directory|-d). If name contains a directory component, then the project/package is created in this directory, as if it was specified with --output-dir|-o.

The first form then, unless the --no-init option is specified, initializes an empty project database as if by executing the bdep-init(1) command with the --empty option. For example:

$ bdep new -l c++ -t exe hello
$ tree hello/
hello/
|-- hello/
|   |-- hello.cxx
|   `-- buildfile
|-- buildfile
`-- manifest

Similarly, the second and third forms add an existing or create a new build configuration and then initialize the project in that configuration as if by executing the bdep-init(1) command with the --config-add or --config-create option, respectively. For example:

$ bdep new -l c++ -t exe -C @gcc hello cc config.cxx=g++

The --package form adds the new package to the packages.manifest file creating it if necessary. If no project directory is explicitly specified with --directory|-d, then it will be deduced from the current working directory (see bdep-projects-configs(1) for details on specifying projects). Note that nested packages are not allowed. For example:

$ bdep new -t empty hello
$ cd hello
$ bdep new --package -l c++ -t lib libhello
$ bdep new --package -l c++ -t exe hello
$ bdep init -C @gcc cc config.cxx=g++
$ cd ..
$ tree hello/
hello/
|-- hello/
|   |-- hello/
|   |   |-- hello.cxx
|   |   `-- buildfile
|   |-- buildfile
|   `-- manifest
|-- libhello/
|   |-- libhello/
|   |   |-- hello.hxx
|   |   |-- hello.cxx
|   |   `-- buildfile
|   |-- buildfile
|   `-- manifest
`-- packages.manifest

The --source form operates as-if by first creating according to spec a temporary project called name and then copying its source subdirectory (name/name/ by default) over to the current working directory (unless overridden with --output-dir|-o). If no project/package directory is explicitly specified with --directory|-d, then the current working directory is assumed. For example:

$ bdep new -l c++ -t bare hello
$ cd hello
$ bdep new --source -l c++ -t lib libhello
$ bdep new --source -l c++ -t exe hello
$ bdep init -C @gcc cc config.cxx=g++
$ cd ..
$ tree hello/
hello/
|-- hello/
|   |-- hello.cxx
|   `-- buildfile
|-- libhello/
|   |-- hello.hxx
|   |-- hello.cxx
|   `-- buildfile
|-- buildfile
`-- manifest

In all the forms, if name is omitted, then the current working directory name (unless overridden with --output-dir|-o) is used as the project/package/source subdirectory name. See Package Name (#package-name) for details on project/package names.

The source subdirectory can be customized with the subdir project type sub-option (see below for details). For example:

$ bdep new -l c++ -t lib,subdir=libhello/io libhello-io
$ tree libhello-io/
libhello-io/
`-- libhello/
    `-- io/
        |-- hello-io.hxx
        `-- hello-io.cxx

By default the source subdirectory is created in the project/package root directory and contains both headers (including public headers for libraries) as well as sources. This can be customized in a number of ways using the prefix* and split project type sub-options (see below for details). For example, to move the source subdirectory inside src/:

$ bdep new -l c++ -t exe,prefix=src hello
$ tree hello/
hello/
`-- src/
    `-- hello/
        `-- hello.cxx

And to split the library source subdirectory into public headers and other source files:

$ bdep new -l c++ -t lib,split libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
|-- include/
|   `-- libhello/
|       `-- hello.hxx
`-- src/
    `-- libhello/
        `-- hello.cxx

See the SOURCE LAYOUT section below for details and more examples.

The output directory may already contain existing files provided they don't clash with the files to be created. The new command also recognizes certain well-known files and tries to use the extracted information in the package manifest file. Specifically, it tries to guess the license from the LICENSE file as well as extract the summary from README.md. This allows for the following workflow:

# Create a project with LICENSE and README.md on one of the Git
# hosting services (GitHub, GitLab, etc).
$ git clone .../libhello.git
$ cd libhello
$ bdep new -l c++ -t lib

The project parameters such as language, type (executable, library, etc), and version control system can be customized as described next. Some of these parameters also support parameter-specific sub-options (such as the file extensions to use in a C++ project) that can be specified with a comma after the parameter value.

The project language can be specified with the --lang|-l option. Valid values for this option and their semantics are described next. If unspecified, a C++ project is created by default.


A C project. Recognized language sub-options:
   c++

A C project that can also use C++. If specified, then the hxx, cxx, ixx, txx, and mxx c++ language sub-options can also be specified.

A C++ project. Recognized language sub-options:
   cpp

Use the .cpp, .hpp, .ipp, .tpp, and .mpp source file extensions (alias for extension=?pp).
   extension=pattern

Derive source file extensions from pattern by replacing every ? with one of the c (source), h (header), i (inline), t (template), or m (module interface) letters. If unspecified and no individual extensions are specified with the below options, then ?xx is used by default.
   hxx=extension

Use the specified extension for header files instead of the default .hxx.
   cxx=extension

Use the specified extension for source files instead of the default .cxx.
   ixx=extension

Use the specified extension for inline files. If unspecified, then assume no inline files are used by the project.
   txx=extension

Use the specified extension for template files. If unspecified, then assume no template files are used by the project.
   mxx=extension

Use the specified extension for module interface files. If unspecified, then assume no modules are used by the project.
   c

A C++ project that can also use C.

As an example, the following command creates a header-only C++ library that uses the .h extension for header files and .cpp – for source files:

$ bdep new -l c++,hxx=h,cxx=cpp -t lib,binless libhello

The project type can be specified with the --type|-t option. The empty project type is language-agnostic with the semantics and valid sub-options for the rest being language-dependent, as described next. If unspecified, an executable project is created by default.


A project that builds a sample C or C++ executable. Recognized executable project sub-options:
   no-tests

Don't add support for functional/integration testing.
   unit-tests

Add support for unit testing.
   no-install

Don't add support for installing.
   export-stub

   buildfile-in-prefix

Create the buildfile in the source prefix directory rather than in its source subdirectory.
   third-party

Create a package for converting an existing third-party executable to build2. This sub-option automatically enables the no-readme sub-option. It also adds a number of values to manifest that makes sense to specify in a package of a third-party project and, unless no-package-readme is specified, generates the PACKAGE-README.md template (see package-description (#manifest-package-description) package manifest value for background).
   license=name

   buildfile-in-prefix

Create the buildfiles in the header/source prefix directories rather than in their source subdirectories.
   third-party

Create a package for converting an existing third-party library to build2. This sub-option automatically enables the no-version and no-readme sub-options as well as no-symexport unless auto-symexport is specified. It also adds a number of values to manifest that makes sense to specify in a package of a third-party project and, unless no-package-readme is specified, generates the PACKAGE-README.md template (see package-description (#manifest-package-description) package manifest value for background).
   license=name
   no-readme
   no-package-readme
   alt-naming

See common sub-options below.

A project without any source code that can be filled later (see --source). Recognized bare project sub-options:
   no-tests

Don't add support for testing.
   no-install

Don't add support for installing.

   alt-naming

See common sub-options below.

An empty project that can be filled with packages (see --package). Recognized empty project sub-options:

   no-readme

See common sub-options below.

Common project type sub-options:
   license=name

Specify the project's license. The license name can be an SPDX License Expression (https://spdx.org/licenses/), which, in its simplest form, is just the license ID. Or it can be a free form name in the other: license name scheme. If unspecified, then other: proprietary is assumed. The following tables lists the most commonly used free/open source software license IDs as well as a number of pre-defined other: names. See the license (#manifest-package-license) package manifest value for more information.

   no-readme

Don't add new README.md (but still check for the existing one).
   no-package-readme

Don't add new PACKAGE-README.md (but still check for the existing one).
   alt-naming

Use the alternative build file/directory naming scheme.

The project version control system can be specified with the --vcs|-s option. Valid values for this option and their semantics are described next. If unspecified, git is assumed by default.


Initialize a git(1) repository inside the project and generate .gitignore files. Recognized version control system sub-options:
   branch=name

Use the specified name for the initial branch in the newly created repository.

Don't initialize a version control system inside the project.

The created project, package, or source subdirectory can be further customized using the pre and post-creation hooks specified with the --pre-hook and --post-hook options, respectively. The pre hooks are executed before any new files are created and the post hook – after all the files have been created. The hook commands are executed in the project, package, or source directory as their current working directory. For example:

$ bdep new --post-hook "echo .idea/ >>.gitignore" hello

The pre hooks are primarily useful for moving/renaming existing files that would otherwise clash with files created by the new command. For example:

$ bdep new --pre-hook  "mv .gitignore .gitignore.bak" \
           --post-hook "cat .gitignore.bak >>.gitignore" \
           --post-hook "rm .gitignore.bak" ...

See the --pre-hook and --post-hook options documentation below for details.

Don't initialize an empty build configuration set.
Create a new package inside an already existing project rather than a new project.
Create a new source subdirectory inside an already existing project or package rather than a new project.
Create the project, package, or source subdirectory in the specified directory.
Assume the project/package is in the specified directory rather than in the current working directory. Only used with --package or --source.
Specify project type and options. Valid values for type are exe (executable project, default), lib (library project), bare (bare project without any source code), and empty (empty project ready to be filled with packages). Valid values for opt are type-specific.
Specify project language and options. Valid values for lang are c and c++ (default). Valid values for opt are language-specific.
Specify project version control system and options. Valid values for vcs are git (default) and none. Valid values for opt are system-specific.
Run the specified command before/after creating the project, package, or source directory.

The command value is interpreted as a whitespace-separated, potentially quoted command line consisting of a program or a portable builtin (testscript#builtins) optionally followed by arguments and redirects. Specifically, a single level of quotes (either single or double) is removed and whitespaces are not treated as separators inside such quoted fragments. Currently only the stdout redirect to a file is supported. For example:

$ bdep new --post-hook "echo '.idea/ # IDE' >>.gitignore" hello

The command line elements (program, arguments, etc) may optionally contain substitutions – variable names enclosed with the @ substitution symbol – which are replaced with the corresponding variable values to produce the actual command. The following variable names are recognized with the double substitution symbol (@@) serving as an escape sequence.

@mode@ - one of 'project', 'package', or 'source'
@name@ - project, package, or source subdirectory name
@base@ - name base (name without extension)
@stem@ - name stem (name base without 'lib' prefix)
@root@ - project/package root directory
@pfx@  - combined prefix relative to project/package root
@inc@  - split header prefix relative to project/package root
@src@  - split source prefix relative to project/package root
@sub@  - source subdirectory relative to header/source prefix
@type@ - type (--type|-t value: 'exe', 'lib', etc)
@lang@ - language (--lang|-l value: 'c', 'c++', etc)
@vcs@  - version control system (--vcs|-s value: 'git', etc)

Note that the @inc@ and @src@ variables are only set if the header/source prefix is split with the combined @pfx@ variable set otherwise.

For example:

$ bdep new --post-hook "echo bin/ >>@name@/.gitignore" hello

These substitution variables are also made available to the hook program as the BDEP_NEW_* environment variables (BDEP_NEW_MODE, BDEP_NEW_NAME, etc).

C and C++ projects employ a bewildering variety of source code layouts most of which fit into two broad classes: combined, where all the source code for a single executable or library resides in the same directory and split, where headers (typically public headers of a library) and other source files reside in separate directories (most commonly called include/ and src/).

To support the creation of such varying layouts the new command divides paths leading to source code inside a package/project into a number of customizable components:

libhello/{include,src}/hello/
    ^         ^          ^
    |         |          |
 project/   source    source
 package    prefix  subdirectory
  root

Note that while the same physical layout can be achieved with various combinations of source prefix and subdirectory, there will be differences in semantics since the headers in the project are included with the source subdirectory (if any) as a prefix. See Canonical Project Structure (intro#proj-struct) for rationale and details.

As we have already seen, the source subdirectory can be customized with the subdir project type sub-option. For example:

# libhello/hello/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t lib,subdir=hello libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
`-- hello/
    |-- hello.hxx
    `-- hello.cxx

Note: pass -l c++,cpp if you prefer the .hpp/.cpp source file naming scheme.

The source prefix can be combined, in which case it can be customized with the single prefix project type sub-option. For example:

# hello/src/hello/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t exe,prefix=src hello
$ tree hello/
hello/
`-- src/
    `-- hello/
        `-- hello.cxx

The prefix can also be split, in which case the prefix-include and prefix-source sub-options can be used to customize the respective directories independently. If either is omitted, then the corresponding prefix is left empty. For example:

# libhello/{include,.}/libhello/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t lib,prefix-include=include libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
|-- include/
|   `-- libhello/
|       `-- hello.hxx
`-- libhello/
    `-- hello.cxx

The split sub-option is a convenient shortcut for the most common case where the header prefix is include/ and source prefix is src/. For example:

# libhello/{include,src}/libhello/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t lib,split libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
|-- include/
|   `-- libhello/
|       `-- hello.hxx
`-- src/
    `-- libhello/
        `-- hello.cxx

The source subdirectory can be omitted by specifying the no-subdir project type sub-option. For example:

# hello/src/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t exe,prefix=src,no-subdir hello
$ tree hello/
hello/
`-- src/
    `-- hello.cxx

The same but for the split layout (we also have to disable the generated version header that is not supported in this layout):

# libhello/{include,src}/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t lib,split,no-subdir,no-version libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
|-- include/
|   `-- hello.hxx
`-- src/
    `-- hello.cxx

To achieve the layout where all the source code resides in the project root, we omit both the source prefix and subdirectory (we also have to disable a couple of other features that are not supported in this layout):

# hello/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t lib,no-subdir,no-version,no-tests libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
|-- hello.cxx
`-- hello.hxx

We can also omit the source subdirectory but only in the source prefix of the split layout by specifying the no-subdir-source sub-option. For example:

# libhello/{include/hello,src}/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t lib,split,subdir=hello,no-subdir-source libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
|-- include/
|   `-- hello/
|       `-- hello.hxx
`-- src/
    `-- hello.cxx

Similarly, we can also omit the source subdirectory but only in the header prefix of the split layout by specifying the no-subdir-include sub-option (we also have to disable the generated version header that is not supported in this layout):

# libhello/{include,src/hello}/
$ bdep new                                                         \
  -l c++                                                           \
  -t lib,split,subdir=hello,no-subdir-include,no-version           \
  libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
|-- include/
|   `-- hello.hxx
`-- src/
    `-- hello/
        `-- hello.cxx

To achieve the split layout where the include/ directory is inside src/:

# libhello/src/{include,.}/hello/
$ bdep new                                                         \
  -l c++                                                           \
  -t lib,prefix-include=src/include,prefix-source=src,subdir=hello \
  libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
`-- src/
    |-- include/
    |   `-- hello/
    |       `-- hello.hxx
    `-- hello/
        `-- hello.cxx

A similar layout but without the source subdirectory in src/:

# libhello/src/{include/hello,.}/
$ bdep new                                                         \
  -l c++                                                           \
  -t lib,prefix-include=src/include,prefix-source=src,\
subdir=hello,no-subdir-source                                      \
  libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
`-- src/
    |-- include/
    |   `-- hello/
    |       `-- hello.hxx
    `-- hello.cxx

The layout used by the Boost libraries:

# libhello/{include/hello,libs/hello/src}/
$ bdep new                                                         \
  -l c++                                                           \
  -t lib,prefix-include=include,prefix-source=libs/hello/src,\
subdir=hello,no-subdir-source                                      \
  libhello
$ tree libhello/
libhello/
|-- include/
|   `-- hello/
|       `-- hello.hxx
`-- libs/
    `-- hello/
        `-- src/
            `-- hello.cxx

A layout where multiple components each have their own include/src split:

# hello/libhello1/{include/hello1,src}/
# hello/libhello2/{include/hello2,src}/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t bare hello
$ bdep new -d hello --source                                       \
  -l c++                                                           \
  -t lib,\
prefix-include=libhello1/include,prefix-source=libhello1/src,\
subdir=hello1,no-subdir-source                                     \
  libhello1
$ bdep new -d hello --source                                       \

A layout where libraries and executables have different prefixes:

# hello/libs/libhello/{include/hello,src}/
# hello/src/hello/
$ bdep new -l c++ -t bare hello
$ bdep new -d hello --source                                       \
  -l c++                                                           \
  -t lib,\
prefix-include=libs/libhello/include,prefix-source=libs/libhello/src,\
subdir=hello,no-subdir-source                                      \
  libhello
$ bdep new -d hello --source -l c++ -t exe,prefix=src hello
$ tree hello/

When packaging a third-party project for build2, one of the common approaches is to create a project with the split layout and the buildfiles in the source prefix directories rather than in the source subdirectories:

# hello/libhello/{include,src}/hello/
# hello/libhello/{include,src}/buildfile
$ bdep new -l c -t empty hello
$ bdep new -d hello --package                                      \
  -l c                                                             \
  -t lib,                                                          \
split,subdir=hello,no-version,no-symexport,buildfile-in-prefix     \
  libhello
$ tree hello/
hello/
`-- libhello/
    |-- include/
    |   |-- buildfile
    |   `-- hello/
    |       `-- hello.h
    `-- src/
        |-- buildfile
        `-- hello/
            `-- hello.c

After that the upstream project is added as a git submodule to the project root directory and the source subdirectories are replaced with the symbolic links to the directories inside the upstream project directory:

$ tree hello/
hello/
|-- libhello/
|   |-- include/
|   |   |-- buildfile
|   |   `-- hello/ -> ../../upstream/include/hello/
|   `-- src/
|       |-- buildfile
|       `-- hello/ -> ../../upstream/src/
`-- upstream/
    |-- include/
    |   `-- hello/
    |       `-- hello.h
    `-- src/
        `-- hello.c

See bdep-default-options-files(1) for an overview of the default options files. For the new command the search start directory is the project directory in the package and source modes and the parent directory of the new project in all other modes. The following options files are searched for in each directory and, if found, loaded in the order listed:

bdep.options
bdep-{config config-add}.options                # if --config-add|-A
bdep-{config config-add config-create}.options  # if --config-create|-C
bdep-new.options
bdep-new-{project|package|source}.options # (mode-dependent)

The following new command options cannot be specified in the default options files:

--output-dir|-o
--directory|-d
--package
--source
--no-checks
--config-add|-A
--config-create|-C
--wipe

While the presence of the --pre-hook or --post-hook options in remote default options files will trigger a prompt.

The BDEP_AUTHOR_EMAIL environment variable can be used to specify the package email address. If not set, the new command will first try to obtain the email from the version control system (if used) and then from the EMAIL environment variable. If all these methods fail, a dummy you@example.org email is used.
