6 dune-install - Install packages.
7
9 dune install [OPTION]... [PACKAGE]...
10
12 --destdir=PATH (absent DESTDIR env)
13 When passed, this directory is prepended to all installed paths.
14 --dry-run
16 Only display the file operations that would be performed.
17 -f, --force
19 Force actions associated to aliases to be re-executed even if their
20 dependencies haven't changed.
21 --help[=FMT] (default=auto)
23 Show this help in format FMT. The value FMT must be one of `auto',
24 `pager', `groff' or `plain'. With `auto', the format is `pager` or
25 `plain' whenever the TERM env var is `dumb' or undefined.
26 --libdir=PATH
28 Directory where library files are copied, relative to prefix or
29 absolute. If --prefix is specified the default is $prefix/lib,
30 otherwise it is the output of ocamlfind printconf destdir
31 --prefix=PREFIX
33 Directory where files are copied. For instance binaries are copied
34 into $prefix/bin, library files into $prefix/lib, etc... It
35 defaults to the current opam prefix if opam is available and
36 configured, otherwise it uses the same prefix as the ocaml
37 compiler.
38 --version
40 Show version information.
41 -w, --watch
43 Instead of terminating build after completion, wait continuously
44 for file changes.
45
47 These options are common to all commands.
48 --auto-promote
50 Automatically promote files. This is similar to running dune
51 promote after the build.
52 --build-dir=FILE (absent DUNE_BUILD_DIR env)
54 Specified build directory. _build if unspecified
55 --config-file=FILE
57 Load this configuration file instead of the default one.
58 --debug-backtraces
60 Always print exception backtraces.
61 --debug-dependency-path
63 In case of error, print the dependency path from the targets on the
64 command line to the rule that failed.
65 --debug-findlib
67 Debug the findlib sub-system.
68 --default-target=TARGET
70 Set the default target that when none is specified to dune build.
71 It defaults to @@default.
72 --dev
74 Same as --profile dev
75 --diff-command=VAL
77 Shell command to use to diff files. Use - to disable printing the
78 diff.
79 --display=MODE
81 Control the display mode of Dune. See dune-config(5) for more
82 details.
83 --ignore-promoted-rules
85 Ignore rules with (mode promote)
86 -j JOBS
88 Run no more than JOBS commands simultaneously.
89 --no-buffer
91 Do not buffer the output of commands executed by dune. By default
92 dune buffers the output of subcommands, in order to prevent
93 interleaving when multiple commands are executed in parallel.
94 However, this can be an issue when debugging long running tests.
95 With --no-buffer, commands have direct access to the terminal. Note
96 that as a result their output won't be captured in the log file.
97 You should use this option in conjunction with -j 1, to avoid
98 interleaving. Additionally you should use --verbose as well, to
99 make sure that commands are printed before they are being executed.
100 --no-config
102 Do not load the configuration file
103 --no-print-directory
105 Suppress "Entering directory" messages
106 --only-packages=PACKAGES
108 Ignore stanzas referring to a package that is not in PACKAGES.
109 PACKAGES is a comma-separated list of package names. Note that this
110 has the same effect as deleting the relevant stanzas from jbuild
111 files. It is mostly meant for releases. During development, it is
112 likely that what you want instead is to build a particular
113 <package>.install target.
114 -p PACKAGES, --for-release-of-packages=PACKAGES
116 Shorthand for --root . --only-packages PACKAGE
117 --ignore-promoted-rules --no-config --profile release. You must use
118 this option in your <package>.opam files, in order to build only
119 what's necessary when your project contains multiple packages as
120 well as getting reproducible builds.
121 --profile=VAL (absent DUNE_PROFILE env)
123 Select the build profile, for instance dev or release. The default
124 is dev.
125 --root=DIR
127 Use this directory as workspace root instead of guessing it. Note
128 that this option doesn't change the interpretation of targets given
129 on the command line. It is only intended for scripts.
130 --store-orig-source-dir (absent DUNE_STORE_ORIG_SOURCE_DIR env)
132 Store original source location in dune-package metadata
133 --trace-file=FILE
135 Output trace data in catapult format (compatible with
136 chrome://tracing)
137 --verbose
139 Same as --display verbose
140 --workspace=FILE
142 Use this specific workspace file instead of looking it up.
143 -x VAL
145 Cross-compile using this toolchain.
146
148 Use `dune COMMAND --help' for help on a single command.
149
151 These environment variables affect the execution of install:
152 DESTDIR
154 See option --destdir.
155 DUNE_BUILD_DIR
157 Specified build directory. _build if unspecified
158 DUNE_PROFILE
160 Build profile. dev if unspecified or release if -p is set.
161 DUNE_STORE_ORIG_SOURCE_DIR
163 Store original source location in dune-package metadata
