This repository contains recipes for building binaries for Julia packages using BinaryBuilder.jl.

To contribute a new recipe, you can either

• use BinaryBuilder.run_wizard(), which will automatically open a pull request to this repository after a successfull build for all requested platforms
• Copy another build recipe using it as a template, and then open a manual pull request to this repository

Azure pipelines are used to test that the builders can successfully produce the tarballs.

If you prefer to test your manual buildscript before opening the pull request, we suggest installing BinaryBuilder.jl on Julia 1.3 and running julia --color=yes build_tarballs.jl --verbose --debug locally. On MacOS, you will need to have docker installed for this to work.

The development version of BinaryBuilder makes use of the new Artifacts system shipping in Julia 1.3. This means that BinaryBuilder no longer generates build.jl files that are placed into your Julia package's deps/ folder, but instead generates whole Julia packages (known colloquially as "jll" packages) that are placed within the JuliaBinaryWrappers organization. Merged pull requests to Yggdrasil result in new versions of these wrapper packages being generated, uploaded and registered, allowing your client Julia code to simply invoke using LibFoo_jll to get ahold of your binaries with no need for a Pkg.build() step. (This will, of course, only be the case for Julia 1.3+)
