12 dune promote is an alias for dune promotion apply.
13 See dune promotion apply --help for details.
15
17 --action-stderr-on-success=VAL
18 Same as --action-stdout-on-success but for the standard output for
19 error messages. A good default for large mono-repositories is
20 --action-stdout-on-success=swallow
21 --action-stderr-on-success=must-be-empty. This ensures that a
22 successful build has a "clean" empty output.
23 --action-stdout-on-success=VAL
25 Specify how to deal with the standard output of actions when they
26 succeed. Possible values are: print to just print it to Dune's
27 output, swallow to completely ignore it and must-be-empty to
28 enforce that the action printed nothing. With must-be-empty, Dune
29 will consider that the action failed if it printed something to its
30 standard output. The default is print.
31 --build-info
33 Show build information.
34 --error-reporting=VAL (absent=deterministic)
36 Controls when the build errors are reported. early - report errors
37 as soon as they are discovered. deterministic - report errors at
38 the end of the build in a deterministic order. twice - report each
39 error twice: once as soon as the error is discovered and then again
40 at the end of the build, in a deterministic order.
41 -f, --force
43 Force actions associated to aliases to be re-executed even if their
44 dependencies haven't changed.
45 --file-watcher=VAL (absent=automatic)
47 Mechanism to detect changes in the source. Automatic to make dune
48 run an external program to detect changes. Manual to notify dune
49 that files have changed manually."
50 --passive-watch-mode
52 Similar to [--watch], but only start a build when instructed
53 externally by an RPC.
54 --react-to-insignificant-changes
56 react to insignificant file system changes; this is only useful for
57 benchmarking dune
58 --sandbox=VAL (absent DUNE_SANDBOX env)
60 Sandboxing mode to use by default. Some actions require a certain
61 sandboxing mode, so they will ignore this setting. The allowed
62 values are: none, symlink, copy, hardlink.
63 -w, --watch
65 Instead of terminating build after completion, wait continuously
66 for file changes.
67 --wait-for-filesystem-clock
69 Dune digest file contents for better incrementally. These digests
70 are themselves cached. In some cases, Dune needs to drop some
71 digest cache entries in order for things to be reliable. This
72 option makes Dune wait for the file system clock to advance so that
73 it doesn't need to drop anything. You should probably not care
74 about this option; it is mostly useful for Dune developers to make
75 Dune tests of the digest cache more reproducible.
76
78 These options are common to all commands.
79 --always-show-command-line
81 Always show the full command lines of programs executed by dune
82 --auto-promote
84 Automatically promote files. This is similar to running dune
85 promote after the build.
86 --build-dir=FILE (absent DUNE_BUILD_DIR env)
88 Specified build directory. _build if unspecified
89 --cache=VAL (absent DUNE_CACHE env)
91 Enable or disable Dune cache (either enabled or disabled). Default
92 is `disabled'.
93 --cache-check-probability=VAL (absent DUNE_CACHE_CHECK_PROBABILITY env)
95 Check build reproducibility by re-executing randomly chosen rules
96 and comparing their results with those stored in Dune cache. Note:
97 by increasing the probability of such checks you slow down the
98 build. The default probability is zero, i.e. no rules are checked.
99 --cache-storage-mode=VAL (absent DUNE_CACHE_STORAGE_MODE env)
101 Dune cache storage mode (one of auto, hardlink or copy). Default is
102 `auto'.
103 --config-file=FILE
105 Load this configuration file instead of the default one.
106 --debug-artifact-substitution
108 Print debugging info about artifact substitution
109 --debug-backtraces
111 Always print exception backtraces.
112 --debug-cache=VAL
114 Show debug messages on cache misses for the given cache layers.
115 Value is a comma-separated list of cache layer names. All available
116 cache layers: shared,workspace-local,fs.
117 --debug-dependency-path
119 In case of error, print the dependency path from the targets on the
120 command line to the rule that failed.
121 --debug-digests
123 Explain why Dune decides to re-digest some files
124 --debug-load-dir
126 Print debugging info about directory loading
127 --debug-store-digest-preimage
129 Store digest preimage for all computed digests, so that it's
130 possible to reverse them later, for debugging. The digests are
131 stored in the shared cache (see --cache flag) as values, even if
132 cache is otherwise disabled. This should be used only for
133 debugging, since it's slow and it litters the shared cache.
134 --default-target=TARGET (absent=@@default)
136 Set the default target that when none is specified to dune build.
137 --diff-command=VAL (absent DUNE_DIFF_COMMAND env)
139 Shell command to use to diff files. Use - to disable printing the
140 diff.
141 --disable-promotion (absent DUNE_DISABLE_PROMOTION env)
143 Disable all promotion rules
144 --display=MODE
146 Control the display mode of Dune. See dune-config(5) for more
147 details. Valid values for this option are One of progress, verbose,
148 short or quiet
149 --dump-memo-graph=FILE
151 Dumps the dependency graph to a file after the build is complete
152 --dump-memo-graph-format=FORMAT (absent=gexf)
154 File format to be used when dumping dependency graph
155 --dump-memo-graph-with-timing
157 With --dump-memo-graph, will re-run each cached node in the Memo
158 graph after building and include the runtime in the output. Since
159 all nodes contain a cached value, this will measure just the
160 runtime of each node
161 --help[=FMT] (default=auto)
163 Show this help in format FMT. The value FMT must be one of auto,
164 pager, groff or plain. With auto, the format is pager or plain
165 whenever the TERM env var is dumb or undefined.
166 --ignore-promoted-rules
168 Ignore rules with (mode promote), except ones with (only ...). The
169 variable %{ignoring_promoted_rules} in dune files reflects whether
170 this option was passed or not.
171 --instrument-with=BACKENDS (absent DUNE_INSTRUMENT_WITH env)
173 "Enable instrumentation by BACKENDS. BACKENDS is a comma-separated
174 list of library names, each one of which must declare an
175 instrumentation backend.
176 -j JOBS
178 Run no more than JOBS commands simultaneously.
179 --no-buffer
181 Do not buffer the output of commands executed by dune. By default
182 dune buffers the output of subcommands, in order to prevent
183 interleaving when multiple commands are executed in parallel.
184 However, this can be an issue when debugging long running tests.
185 With --no-buffer, commands have direct access to the terminal. Note
186 that as a result their output won't be captured in the log file.
187 You should use this option in conjunction with -j 1, to avoid
188 interleaving. Additionally you should use --verbose as well, to
189 make sure that commands are printed before they are being executed.
190 --no-config
192 Do not load the configuration file
193 --no-print-directory
195 Suppress "Entering directory" messages
196 --only-packages=PACKAGES
198 Ignore stanzas referring to a package that is not in PACKAGES.
199 PACKAGES is a comma-separated list of package names. Note that this
200 has the same effect as deleting the relevant stanzas from dune
201 files. It is mostly meant for releases. During development, it is
202 likely that what you want instead is to build a particular
203 <package>.install target.
204 -p PACKAGES, --for-release-of-packages=PACKAGES (required)
206 Shorthand for --release --only-packages PACKAGE. You must use this
207 option in your <package>.opam files, in order to build only what's
208 necessary when your project contains multiple packages as well as
209 getting reproducible builds.
210 --print-metrics
212 Print out various performance metrics after every build
213 --profile=VAL (absent DUNE_PROFILE env)
215 Select the build profile, for instance dev or release. The default
216 is dev.
217 --promote-install-files[=VAL] (default=true)
219 Promote the generated <package>.install files to the source tree
220 --release
222 Put dune into a reproducible release mode. This is in fact a
223 shorthand for --root . --ignore-promoted-rules --no-config
224 --profile release --always-show-command-line
225 --promote-install-files --default-target @install
226 --require-dune-project-file. You should use this option for release
227 builds. For instance, you must use this option in your
228 <package>.opam files. Except if you already use -p, as -p implies
229 this option.
230 --require-dune-project-file[=VAL] (default=true)
232 Fail if a dune-project file is missing.
233 --root=DIR
235 Use this directory as workspace root instead of guessing it. Note
236 that this option doesn't change the interpretation of targets given
237 on the command line. It is only intended for scripts.
238 --store-orig-source-dir (absent DUNE_STORE_ORIG_SOURCE_DIR env)
240 Store original source location in dune-package metadata
241 --terminal-persistence=MODE
243 Changes how the log of build results are displayed to the console
244 between rebuilds while in --watch mode. Supported modes: preserve,
245 clear-on-rebuild, clear-on-rebuild-and-flush-history.
246 --trace-file=FILE
248 Output trace data in catapult format (compatible with
249 chrome://tracing)
250 --verbose
252 Same as --display verbose
253 --version
255 Show version information.
256 --workspace=FILE (absent DUNE_WORKSPACE env)
258 Use this specific workspace file instead of looking it up.
259 -x VAL
261 Cross-compile using this toolchain.
262
264 Use `dune COMMAND --help' for help on a single command.
265
267 promote exits with the following status:
268 0 on success.
270 123 on indiscriminate errors reported on standard error.
272 124 on command line parsing errors.
274 125 on unexpected internal errors (bugs).
276
278 These environment variables affect the execution of promote:
279 DUNE_BUILD_DIR
281 Specified build directory. _build if unspecified
282 DUNE_CACHE
284 Enable or disable Dune cache (either enabled or disabled). Default
285 is `disabled'.
286 DUNE_CACHE_CHECK_PROBABILITY
288 Check build reproducibility by re-executing randomly chosen rules
289 and comparing their results with those stored in Dune cache. Note:
290 by increasing the probability of such checks you slow down the
291 build. The default probability is zero, i.e. no rules are checked.
292 DUNE_CACHE_STORAGE_MODE
294 Dune cache storage mode (one of auto, hardlink or copy). Default is
295 `auto'.
296 DUNE_DIFF_COMMAND
298 Shell command to use to diff files. Use - to disable printing the
299 diff.
300 DUNE_DISABLE_PROMOTION
302 Disable all promotion rules
303 DUNE_INSTRUMENT_WITH
305 "Enable instrumentation by BACKENDS. BACKENDS is a comma-separated
306 list of library names, each one of which must declare an
307 instrumentation backend.
308 DUNE_PROFILE
310 Build profile. dev if unspecified or release if -p is set.
311 DUNE_SANDBOX
313 Sandboxing mode to use by default. (see --sandbox)
314 DUNE_STORE_ORIG_SOURCE_DIR
316 Store original source location in dune-package metadata
317 DUNE_WORKSPACE
319 Use this specific workspace file instead of looking it up.
