Package that contains build helper functions.

Function Documentation

_create_header_guard()

burger.buildutils._create_header_guard ( filename )

protected

Create the header guard.

Create the header guard by taking the filename, converting to upper case and replacing spaces and periods with underbars.

Parameters

filename

Pathname of the file to generate a header guard.

Returns

Base name, capitalized, and with underscores.

execfile()

burger.buildutils.execfile	(		filename,
			globals,
			locals = None )

Implementation of execfile from Python 2.

It's not exact. This version requires a globals object.

To maintain compatilibity to execfile() in python 2, the input parameters are hard coded to filename, globals, and locals despite what pylint insists on.

Parameters

filename	Full path of python file to load and execute
globals	Usually globals()
locals	Optional, usually locals()

Returns

None

expand_and_verify()

burger.buildutils.expand_and_verify

(

file_string

)

Expand the input string with os.path.expandvars()

After expanding the string, test for the existence of the file and return the expanded path if True. Otherwise, return None

Examples

perforcepath = burger.expand_and_verify("${PERFORCE}\\p4.exe")

if perforcepath is None: return

Parameters

file_string

Pathname with environment variable tokens

Returns

None if the string couldn't be expanded or if the file didn't exist, otherwise, return the expanded pathname

find_in_path()

burger.buildutils.find_in_path	(		filename,
			search_path = None,
			executable = False )

Using the system PATH environment variable, search for a file.

If the flag executable is False, the file will be found using a simple path search. If the flag is True, the file will be searched for using the extensions in the PATHEXT environment variable in addition to use the filename as is.

If search_path is a string, it will be seperated using os.pathsep. If not, it will be treated as an interable list of strings of full pathnames to search. If it is None, the PATH environment variable will be used.

Examples

# Can return "doxygen", "doxygen.exe" or "doxygen.com" depending
# on what was found
burger.find_in_path("doxygen", executable=True)
 
# Will only find "foo.txt"
burger.find_in_path("foo.txt")

Parameters

filename	File to locate
search_path	Search paths to use instead of PATH
executable	True to ensure it's an executable

Return

None if not found, a full path if the file is found.

burger.buildutils.get_path_ext

burger.buildutils.make_exe_path

fix_csharp()

burger.buildutils.fix_csharp

(

csharp_application_path

)

Convert pathname to execute a C# exe file.

C# applications can launch as is on Windows platforms, however, on Mac OSX and Linux, it must be launched from mono. Determine the host machine and if not windows, automatically prepend "mono" to the application's name to properly launch it

This will also encase the name in quotes in case there are spaces in the pathname

Parameters

csharp_application_path

Pathname string to update

Returns

List of commands for the platform to launch a C# application.

get_path_ext()

burger.buildutils.get_path_ext

(

pathext = None

)

Return a list of executable extensions.

If pathext is None, query the environment variable PATHEXT and return the entries as a string list. If pathext is a string, parse it as if it was a system specific PATHEXT string and if it's an iterable, return the value as is. If PATHEXT doesn't exist or is empty, return an empty list.

Windows usually sets the value like this PATHEXT=.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH;.MSC

Parameters

pathext

String parsed as PATHEXT, iterable returned as is

Returns

List of file name extension strings.

get_sdks_folder()

burger.buildutils.get_sdks_folder	(		verbose = False,
			refresh = False,
			folder = None )

Return the path of the BURGER_SDKS folder.

If the environment variable BURGER_SDKS is set, return the pathname it contains. Otherwise, print a warning if verbose is True and then attempt to find the "sdks" folder by traversing the current working directory for a folder named "sdks". If one isn't found, return None.

Examples

# Normal use
sdksfolder = burger.buildutils.get_sdks_folder()

if not sdksfolder: print("failure")

    raise NameError("sdks not found, set BURGER_SDKS")
 
# Alert the user if BURGER_SDKS isn't set
burger.buildutils.get_sdks_folder(verbose=True)
 
# Force the use of a supplied folder for sdks
burger.buildutils.get_sdks_folder(refresh=True, folder="./foo/sdks/")

Parameters

verbose	If True, print a message if BURGER_SDKS was not present
refresh	If True, reset the cache and force a reload.
folder	Path to use as BURGER_SDKS in the cache as an override

Returns

None if the environment variable is not set, or the value of BURGER_SDKS.

import_py_script()

burger.buildutils.import_py_script	(		file_name,
			module_name = None )

Manually load in a python file.

Load in a python script from disk and parse it, creating a .pyc file if needed and reading from a .pyc file if it exists.

Note

The module returned will not be present in the sys.modules cache, this is by design to allow python files with the same name to be loaded from different directories without creating a cache collision

Parameters

file_name	Name of the file to load
module_name	Name of the loaded module for __name__

Returns

The imported python script object

run_py_script

is_codewarrior_mac_allowed()

burger.buildutils.is_codewarrior_mac_allowed

(

)

Return True if this machine can run Codewarrior for Mac OS Carbon.

Test first if the host platform is a mac, and if so, test if it's capable of running Mac OS Carbon Codewarrior 9 or 10

Returns

True if CodeWarrior for Mac OS can be run on this Macintosh

strutils.host_machine

is_exe()

burger.buildutils.is_exe

(

exe_path

)

Return True if the file is executable.

Note

Windows platforms don't support the "x" bit so all files are executable if they exist.

Parameters

exe_path

Full or partial pathname to test for existance

Returns

True if the file is executable, False if the file doesn't exist or is not valid.

make_exe_path()

burger.buildutils.make_exe_path	(		exe_path,
			pathext = None )

Given a folder and a executable name, return the true absolute path.

Examples

# exe could be returned as exe, exe.exe, exe.cmd, etc...
path = make_exe_path("C:\\code\\exe")

if path is None: print("No file named exe at C:\\code")

Note

On macOS and Linux, PATHEXT is not set, this is for supporting extension types for common batch files or other executable extensions.

Parameters

exe_path	Path of the executable to test
pathext	Extension list to test

Returns

None if a match was not found, or a full pathname with extension.

run_command()

burger.buildutils.run_command	(		args,
			working_dir = None,
			quiet = False,
			capture_stdout = False,
			capture_stderr = False )

Execute a program and capture the return code and text output.

Pass a command line formatted for the current shell and then this function will execute that command and capture both stdout and stderr if desired.

Note

The first parameter is passed to subprocess.Popen() as is.

Parameters

args	List of command line entries, starting with the program pathname
working_dir	Directory to set before executing command
quiet	Set to True if errors should not be printed
capture_stdout	Set to True if stdout is to be captured
capture_stderr	Set to True if stderr is to be captured

Returns

The return error_code, stdout, stderr

run_py_script()

burger.buildutils.run_py_script	(		file_name,
			function_name = None,
			arg = None )

Manually load and run a function in a python file.

Load in a python script from disk and execute a specific function. Returns the value returned from the loaded script.

Note

The script will not be added to the module cache.

Parameters

file_name	Name of the file to load
function_name	Name of the function in the file to call
arg	Argument to pass to the function

Returns

The value returned from the python script.
