okay bestie, welcome to the Alire manual — this one's all about alr-build, aka the glow-up button for your crate. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

alr-build — GPRbuild current working release

(yes that's the whole job description and yes it ate 💅)

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

alr build [options] [--] [gprbuild switches and arguments]

the -- is doing main character work btw — everything after it gets handed straight to gprbuild, no questions asked. iykyk. 🌸

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

these control what mode your root crate builds in. pick your vibe:

• --release — Set root crate build mode to Release. 🚀 optimized, shiny, ready for the world.
• --validation — Set root crate build mode to Validation. extra checks, extra scrutiny, she's thorough.
• --development — Set root crate build mode to Development ✨ and this is the default, so if you say nothing, you get dev mode. lowkey the chillest option.

---

🌈 GLOBAL OPTIONS 🌈

these ones work everywhere in alr, not just here. universal icons fr fr.

• -c, --config=ARG — Override configuration folder location 📁 tell her where to keep her stuff.
• -f, --force — Keep going after a recoverable troublesome situation 💪 she stumbles, she gets back up. no cap.
• -h, --help — Display general or command-specific help 🫶 your bestie when you're lost.
• -n, --non-interactive — Assume default answers for all user prompts 🙈 no asking, just vibes, she'll pick for you.

• --no-tty — Disables control characters in output 🔇 for when you're piping her somewhere fancy.
• --prefer-oldest — Prefer oldest versions instead of newest when resolving dependencies 🧓 vintage era. the algorithm picks the elders.
• --version — Displays version and exits ⭐ then she peaces out immediately.
• -q — Limit output to errors 🤫 only speak when something's wrong.
