NAME

6       dune-ocaml-merlin - Start a merlin configuration server
7

SYNOPSIS

9       dune ocaml-merlin [OPTION]...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       dune ocaml-merlin starts a server that can be queried to get .merlin
13       information. It is meant to be used by Merlin itself and does not
14       provide a user-friendly output.
15

OPTIONS

17       --build-info
18           Show build information.
19
20       --dump-config=VAL
21           Prints the entire content of the merlin configuration for the given
22           folder in a user friendly form. This is for testing and debugging
23           purposes only and should not be considered as a stable ouptut.
24
25       -f, --force
26           Force actions associated to aliases to be re-executed even if their
27           dependencies haven't changed.
28
29       --help[=FMT] (default=auto)
30           Show this help in format FMT. The value FMT must be one of `auto',
31           `pager', `groff' or `plain'. With `auto', the format is `pager` or
32           `plain' whenever the TERM env var is `dumb' or undefined.
33
34       --sandbox=VAL (absent DUNE_SANDBOX env)
35           Sandboxing mode to use by default. Some actions require a certain
36           sandboxing mode, so they will ignore this setting. The allowed
37           values are: none, symlink, copy.
38
39       --version
40           Show version information.
41
42       -w, --watch
43           Instead of terminating build after completion, wait continuously
44           for file changes.
45

COMMON OPTIONS

47       These options are common to all commands.
48
49       --always-show-command-line
50           Always show the full command lines of programs executed by dune
51
52       --auto-promote
53           Automatically promote files. This is similar to running dune
54           promote after the build.
55
56       --build-dir=FILE (absent DUNE_BUILD_DIR env)
57           Specified build directory. _build if unspecified
58
59       --cache=VAL (absent DUNE_CACHE env)
60           Activate binary cache (either `disabled' or `enabled'). Default is
61           `disabled'.
62
63       --cache-check-probability=VAL (absent=0. or
64       DUNE_CACHE_CHECK_PROBABILITY env)
65           Probability cached rules are rerun to check for reproducibility
66
67       --cache-duplication=VAL (absent DUNE_CACHE_DUPLICATION env)
68           Binary cache duplication mode
69
70       --cache-transport=VAL (absent DUNE_CACHE_TRANSPORT env)
71           Binary cache protocol
72
73       --config-file=FILE
74           Load this configuration file instead of the default one.
75
76       --debug-artifact-substitution
77           Print debugging info about artifact substitution
78
79       --debug-backtraces
80           Always print exception backtraces.
81
82       --debug-dependency-path
83           In case of error, print the dependency path from the targets on the
84           command line to the rule that failed.
85
86       --debug-findlib
87           Debug the findlib sub-system.
88
89       --default-target=TARGET (absent=@@default)
90           Set the default target that when none is specified to dune build.
91
92       --diff-command=VAL
93           Shell command to use to diff files. Use - to disable printing the
94           diff.
95
96       --disable-promotion (absent DUNE_DISABLE_PROMOTION env)
97           Disable all promotion rules
98
99       --display=MODE
100           Control the display mode of Dune. See dune-config(5) for more
101           details.
102
103       --ignore-promoted-rules
104           Ignore rules with (mode promote), except ones with (only ...). The
105           variable %{ignoring_promoted_rules} in dune files reflects whether
106           this option was passed or not.
107
108       --instrument-with=BACKENDS (absent DUNE_INSTRUMENT_WITH env)
109           "Enable instrumentation by BACKENDS. BACKENDS is a comma-separated
110           list of library names, each one of which must declare an
111           instrumentation backend.
112
113       -j JOBS
114           Run no more than JOBS commands simultaneously.
115
116       --no-buffer
117           Do not buffer the output of commands executed by dune. By default
118           dune buffers the output of subcommands, in order to prevent
119           interleaving when multiple commands are executed in parallel.
120           However, this can be an issue when debugging long running tests.
121           With --no-buffer, commands have direct access to the terminal. Note
122           that as a result their output won't be captured in the log file.
123           You should use this option in conjunction with -j 1, to avoid
124           interleaving. Additionally you should use --verbose as well, to
125           make sure that commands are printed before they are being executed.
126
127       --no-config
128           Do not load the configuration file
129
130       --no-print-directory
131           Suppress "Entering directory" messages
132
133       --only-packages=PACKAGES
134           Ignore stanzas referring to a package that is not in PACKAGES.
135           PACKAGES is a comma-separated list of package names. Note that this
136           has the same effect as deleting the relevant stanzas from dune
137           files. It is mostly meant for releases. During development, it is
138           likely that what you want instead is to build a particular
139           <package>.install target.
140
141       -p PACKAGES, --for-release-of-packages=PACKAGES
142           Shorthand for --release --only-packages PACKAGE. You must use this
143           option in your <package>.opam files, in order to build only what's
144           necessary when your project contains multiple packages as well as
145           getting reproducible builds.
146
147       --profile=VAL (absent DUNE_PROFILE env)
148           Select the build profile, for instance dev or release. The default
149           is dev.
150
151       --promote-install-files
152           Promote the generated <package>.install files to the source tree
153
154       --release
155           Put dune into a reproducible release mode. This is in fact a
156           shorthand for --root . --ignore-promoted-rules --no-config
157           --profile release --always-show-command-line
158           --promote-install-files --default-target @install. You should use
159           this option for release builds. For instance, you must use this
160           option in your <package>.opam files. Except if you already use -p,
161           as -p implies this option.
162
163       --root=DIR
164           Use this directory as workspace root instead of guessing it. Note
165           that this option doesn't change the interpretation of targets given
166           on the command line. It is only intended for scripts.
167
168       --store-orig-source-dir (absent DUNE_STORE_ORIG_SOURCE_DIR env)
169           Store original source location in dune-package metadata
170
171       --terminal-persistence=MODE
172           Changes how the log of build results are displayed to the console
173           between rebuilds while in --watch mode. Supported modes: preserve,
174           clear-on-rebuild.
175
176       --trace-file=FILE
177           Output trace data in catapult format (compatible with
178           chrome://tracing)
179
180       --verbose
181           Same as --display verbose
182
183       --workspace=FILE (absent DUNE_WORKSPACE env)
184           Use this specific workspace file instead of looking it up.
185
186       -x VAL
187           Cross-compile using this toolchain.
