gst-build
GStreamer meson based repositories aggregrator
You can build GStreamer and all its modules at once using meson and its subproject feature.
Getting started
Install meson and ninja
You should get meson through your package manager or using:
$ pip3 install --user meson
You should get ninja
using your package manager or downloading it from
here.
Build GStreamer and its modules
You can get all GStreamer built running:
mkdir build/ && meson build && ninja -C build/
NOTE: on fedora (and maybe other distributions) replace ninja
with ninja-build
Development environment
gst-build also contains a special uninstalled
target that lets you enter an
uninstalled development environment where you will be able to work on GStreamer easily.
You can get into that environment running:
ninja -C build/ uninstalled
If your operating system handles symlinks, built modules source code will be available
at the root of gst-build/
for example GStreamer core will be in gstreamer/
. Otherwise
they will be present in subprojects/
. You can simply hack in there and to rebuild you
just need to rerun ninja -C build/
.
