OBUILD-SIMPLE(1)

🦋 OBUILD-SIMPLE(1) 🦋

okay bestie, welcome to obuild-simple — the simple package build system for OCaml. yes, that's the whole manual name, and yes, it's giving "small but mighty." let's get into it 💅

✨ NAME ✨

obuild-simple — simple package build system for OCaml 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

the vibe is minimal. you hand it a file, it builds a file. here's the whole usage situation:

usage: obuild-simple [opts] main.ml

that's it, that's the dream 🌈. and here are all the [opts] you can sprinkle in, no cap:

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• --debug — activate build system debug 🐛 (turn on the little guy that tells you what's happening inside)
• --native — build native executable 🔥
• --bytecode — build bytecode executable 💀
• -p — build with profiling 📊
• -g — build with debugging 🔍
• --srcdir — where to find the ML sources (default: current directory) 🗂️
• --cdir — where to find the C sources (default: current directory) 🗂️
• --cinclude — append one path to the C include files ➕
• --clibpath — append one path to the list of path ➕
• --clib — append one system library 📚
• --cfile — append one c file 📄
• --cpkg — append one c pckage 📦 (yes it literally says pckage in the manual and honestly? iconic, we stan a typo 🥰)
• --dep — append one dependency 🔗
• --deps x,y,z — append dependencies x, y and z 🔗🔗🔗 (comma-separated, bestie, don't forget the commas)
• --depends — append one dependency 🔗 (yes, --dep and --depends both exist, they said "why choose" 💅)
• -help — Display this list of options 📋
• --help — Display this list of options 📋 (same energy, different dashes, we love options)

---

pro tip from your girl: --help and -help do the exact same thing, so whichever dash count your fingers land on, you're safe 💖
