-# Checkout |
-If you want to build the Android client then you will need to follow |
-instructions [here](https://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/android-build-instructions) |
-to sync Android related code as well. |
- |
-# Using GN |
-Blimp only supports building using [GN](../../tools/gn/README.md). A quick |
-overview over how to use GN can be found in the GN |
-[quick start guide](../../tools/gn/docs/quick_start.md). |
- |
-## Building |
- |
-There are two different build configurations depending on what you want to |
-build, either the client or the engine. |
- |
-Regardless of which you build, it is helpful to setup the following |
-environment variable in your shell to get a better view of how the build is |
-progressing: |
- |
-```bash |
-export NINJA_STATUS="[%r %f/%s/%u/%t] " |
-``` |
- |
-It will give you a count for the following values: |
-`[RUNNING FINISHED/STARTED/NOT_STARTED/TOTAL]`. See the |
-[ninja manual](https://ninja-build.org/manual.html#_environment_variables) |
-for a full list of template values. |
- |
-### Android client |
- |
-Create an out-directory and set the GN args: |
- |
-```bash |
-mkdir -p out-android/Debug |
-echo "import(\"//build/args/blimp_client.gn\")" > out-android/Debug/args.gn |
-gn gen out-android/Debug |
-``` |
- |
-To build: |
- |
-```bash |
-ninja -C out-android/Debug blimp chrome_public_apk |
-``` |
- |
-You can install with this command: |
- |
-```bash |
-adb install out-android/Debug/apks/ChromePublic.apk |
-``` |
- |
-To add your own build preferences: |
- |
-```bash |
-gn args out-android/Debug |
-``` |
- |
-For example, you can build `x86` APK by adding `target_cpu = "x86"` to the `gn |
-args`. |
- |
- |
-### Engine |
- |
-Create another out-directory and set the GN args: |
- |
-```bash |
-mkdir -p out-linux/Debug |
-echo "import(\"//build/args/blimp_engine.gn\")" > out-linux/Debug/args.gn |
-gn gen out-linux/Debug |
-``` |
- |
-To build: |
- |
-```bash |
-ninja -C out-linux/Debug blimp |
-``` |
- |
-To add your own build preferences |
- |
-```bash |
-gn args out-linux/Debug |
-``` |
- |
-## Adding new build arguments |
- |
-Adding new build arguments should be fairly rare. Arguments first need to be |
-[declared](../../tools/gn/docs/quick_start.md#Add-a-new-build-argument). |
- |
-They can then be used to change how the binary is built or passed through to |
-code as a |
-[defines](../../tools/gn/docs/reference.md#defines_C-preprocessor-defines). |
- |
-Finally the Blimp argument templates should be updated to reflect the |
-(non-default for Chrome) behavior desired by Blimp (see below). |
- |
-## Updating bulid arguments in templates |
- |
-Build argument templates exist for the client and engine at |
-[`build/args/blimp_client.gn`](../../build/args/blimp_client.gn) and |
-[`build/args/blimp_engine.gn`](../../build/args/blimp_engine.gn). |
- |
-These can be updated as in the same manner as your personal `args.gn` files |
-to override default argument values. |
