## Introduction<a name="section11660541593"></a>
|
|
|
|
The compilation and building subsystem is a build framework based on Generate Ninja \(GN\) and Ninja, which supports component-based OpenHarmony development. This subsystem can be used to:
|
|
|
|
- Build products.
|
|
|
|
- Build chipset vendor components independently.
|
|
- Build a single component independently.
|
|
|
|
It is considered best practice to learn the following basic concepts before you start development and build:
|
|
|
|
- **Component**
|
|
|
|
A component is a reusable software unit that can contain source code, configuration files, resource files, and build scripts.
|
|
|
|
- **GN**
|
|
|
|
GN is short for Generate Ninja, which is a build system used to generate Ninja files.
|
|
|
|
- **Ninja**
|
|
|
|
Ninja is a small high-speed build system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Build Process**
|
|
|
|
The following figure shows the build process.

|
|
|
|
1. **hb set**: Set the OpenHarmony source code directory and the product to build.
|
|
2. **hb build**: Build the product, development board, or component. The process to build the solution is as follows:
|
|
- **Reading configuration**: Read the development board configuration, which covers the toolchain, linking commands, and build options.
|
|
- **Running gn**: Run the **gn gen** command to read the product configuration \(related to the development board, kernel, and system components\) and generate the **out** directory and **ninja** files for the solution.
|
|
- **Running Ninja**: Run **ninja -C out/company/product** to start build.
|
|
- **Packaging**: Package the build result to create a file system image.

|
|
|
### Usage Guidelines<a name="section129654513264"></a>
|
|
|
|
1. **Prerequisites**
|
|
- Server and OS version: Linux server running 64-bit Ubuntu 16.04 or later
|
|
- Python version: 3.7.4 or later
|
|
- Repository: **build\_lite** of OpenHarmony source code
|
|
|
|
2. **Installing hb**
|
|
- Run the following command in the root directory of the source code:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python3 -m pip install --user build/lite
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Run the **hb -h** command. If the following information is displayed, the installation is successful:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
usage: hb
|
|
|
|
OHOS build system
|
|
|
|
positional arguments:
|
|
{build,set,env,clean}
|
|
build Build source code
|
|
set OHOS build settings
|
|
env Show OHOS build env
|
|
clean Clean output
|
|
|
|
optional arguments:
|
|
-h, --help Show this help message and exit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- **Uninstalling hb**
|
|
|
|
Run the following command to uninstall hb:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python3 -m pip uninstall ohos-build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. **Build Commands**
|
|
1. **hb set**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
hb set -h
|
|
usage: hb set [-h] [-root [ROOT_PATH]] [-p]
|
|
|
|
optional arguments:
|
|
-h, --help Show this help message and exit.
|
|
-root [ROOT_PATH], --root_path [ROOT_PATH]
|
|
Set OHOS root path.
|
|
-p, --product Set OHOS board and kernel.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- If you run **hb set** with no argument, the default setting process starts.
|
|
- You can run **hb set -root** _\[ROOT\_PATH\]_ to set the root directory of the source code.
|
|
- **hb set -p --product** is used to set the product to build.
|
|
|
|
2. **hb env**
|
|
|
|
View the current configuration.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
hb env
|
|
[OHOS INFO] root path: xxx
|
|
[OHOS INFO] board: hispark_taurus
|
|
[OHOS INFO] kernel: liteos
|
|
[OHOS INFO] product: ipcamera
|
|
[OHOS INFO] product path: xxx/vendor/hisilicon/ipcamera
|
|
[OHOS INFO] device path: xxx/device/hisilicon/hispark_taurus/sdk_linux_4.19
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. **hb build**

|
|
|
```
|
|
hb build -h
|
|
usage: hb build [-h] [-b BUILD_TYPE] [-c COMPILER] [-t [TEST [TEST ...]]]
|
|
[--dmverity] [-p PRODUCT] [-f] [-n]
|
|
[component [component ...]]
|
|
|
|
positional arguments:
|
|

|
|
|
|
optional arguments:
|
|
-h, --help Show this help message and exit.
|
|
-b BUILD_TYPE, --build_type BUILD_TYPE
|
|
Release or debug version.
|
|
-c COMPILER, --compiler COMPILER
|
|
Specify compiler.
|
|
-t [TEST [TEST ...]], --test [TEST [TEST ...]]
|
|
Compile test suit.
|
|
--dmverity Enable dmverity.
|
|
-p PRODUCT, --product PRODUCT
|
|
Build a specified product with
|
|
{product_name}@{company}, eg: ipcamera@hisilcon.
|
|
-f, --full Full code compilation.
|
|
-T [TARGET [TARGET ...]], --target [TARGET [TARGET ...]]
|
|
Compile single target
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- If you run **hb build** with no argument, the previously configured code directory, product, and options are used for build.
|
|
- You can run **hb build** _\{component\}_ to build product components separately based on the development board and kernel set for the product, for example, **hb build kv\_store**.
|
|
- You can run **hb build -p PRODUCT** to skip the setting step and build the product directly.
|
|
- You can run **hb build** in **device/device\_company/board** to select the kernel and start build based on the current development board and the selected kernel to generate an image that contains the kernel and driver only.
|
|
|
|
4. **hb clean**
|
|
|
|
Clear the build result of the product in the **out** directory, and leave the **args.gn** and **build.log** files only. To clear files in a specified directory, add the directory parameter to the command, for example, **hb clean** _xxx_**/out/**_xxx_.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
hb clean
|
|
usage: hb clean [-h] [out_path]
|
|
|
|
positional arguments:
|
|
