muon is an implementation of the meson build system in c99 with minimal dependencies.
muon analyze
- a static analyzer for meson.build files. demomuon fmt
- a meson.build code formattermuon
is close to feature-complete with the core of meson for c
and c++
.
See the status page for each version for more detailed information.
Things missing include:
b_
optionsOther differences from meson are described in doc/differences.md

Patches and bug reports welcome!
Additionally, muon is not fully supported on all platforms yet. The current status may be viewed on muon's ci dashboard. Platforms with some or all tests disabled are currently WIP and platforms not tested in CI have unknown status. In general, posix systems should work fine.
Essential:
For pkgconf
support:
libpkgconf
pkgconf
or pkg-config
For [wrap-file]
support:
libcurl
libarchive
To build documentation:

for muon.1 and meson.build.5python3
and py3-yaml
for meson-reference.3To run most project tests:
python3
If you already have meson or muon and are not interested in bootstrapping, you can just do a typical meson configure, build, install:
$meson setup build
cd build
ninja build
$meson test
$meson install
Otherwise, you must bootstrap muon.
The bootstrapping process has two stages. The first stage produces a muon
binary capable of building itself (but not necessarily anything else). The
second stage produces the final binary.
Stage 1:
./bootstrap.sh build
This will by default build a ninja implementation (samu) into the resulting
executable. To disable this behavior use CFLAGS=-DBOOTSTRAP_NO_SAMU
.
Stage 2:
build/muon setup build
build/muon -C build samu
build/muon -C build test
build/muon -C build install

Although I had already had the idea to re-implement meson in C, I was initially
inspired to actually go out and do it when I saw boson. muon
's code was
originally based on boson
, though has since been almost completely rewritten.
