| |
| kati is an experimental GNU make clone. |
| The main goal of this tool is to speed-up incremental build of Android. |
| |
| Currently, kati does not offer a faster build by itself. It instead converts |
| your Makefile to a ninja file. |
| |
| How to use for Android |
| ---------------------- |
| |
| Now AOSP has kati and ninja, so all you have to do is |
| |
| % export USE_NINJA=true |
| |
| All Android's build commands (m, mmm, mmma, etc.) should just work. |
| |
| How to use for Android (deprecated way) |
| ---------------------- |
| |
| Set up kati: |
| |
| % cd ~/src |
| % git clone https://github.com/google/kati |
| % cd kati |
| % make |
| |
| Build Android: |
| |
| % cd <android-directory> |
| % source build/envsetup.sh |
| % lunch <your-choice> |
| % ~/src/kati/m2n --kati_stats # Use --goma if you are a Googler. |
| % ./ninja.sh |
| |
| You need ninja in your $PATH. |
| |
| More usage examples (deprecated way) |
| ------------------- |
| |
| ### "make clean" |
| |
| % ./ninja.sh -t clean |
| |
| Note ./ninja.sh passes all parameters to ninja. |
| |
| ### Build a specific target |
| |
| For example, the following is equivalent to "make cts": |
| |
| % ./ninja.sh cts |
| |
| Or, if you know the path you want, you can do: |
| |
| % ./ninja.sh out/host/linux-x86/bin/adb |
