Feb 08 07:38:00 <mckoan> good morning
Feb 08 10:14:28 <dv_> is there an up-to-date recommended template for bitbake recipes, or perhaps a "best practices" document on how to write recipes correctly? i am referring to details like SRCREVs before / after SRC_URIs, tabs or spaces inside multiline strings, what metadata (descriptions, summary, ...) to always incldue etc.
Feb 08 11:02:25 <hrw> Wrote few words about this year FOSDEM: https://marcin.juszkiewicz.com.pl/2021/02/08/fosdem-2021-was-the-best-online-event-ever/
Feb 08 14:59:46 <dv_> if I have a recipe called libfoobar_0.3.21.bb , and inside the recipe, I want to programmatically get the major & minor version ("0" and "3" in this example), is this possible?
Feb 08 15:00:02 <mru> anything is possible
Feb 08 15:00:33 <dv_> well .. how?
Feb 08 15:00:59 <mru> in which context?
Feb 08 15:01:52 <dv_> I want it in the recipe
Feb 08 15:02:06 <dv_> SOMEVAR = "ABC-${MAJORVERSION}-${MINORVERSION}" for example
Feb 08 15:02:31 <dv_> right now I have to manually edit that if the version changes because in this example it would be hardcoded to SOMEVAR = "ABC-0-3"
Feb 08 15:04:41 <JPEW> dv_: You can use anon python to get it: MAJORVERSION = "${@d.getVar('PV').split('.')[0]}"
Feb 08 15:04:51 <smurray> heh, beat me to it
Feb 08 15:05:13 <mru> yeah, that's my first thought as well
Feb 08 15:05:38 <mru> don't know if there's some helper function already made for such things
Feb 08 15:05:59 <dv_> right, that was something I was thinking of too, I was just wondering if yocto has something specific for this
Feb 08 15:06:02 <dv_> alright, thanks
Feb 08 15:06:06 <smurray> "git grep PV | grep @" in oe-core shows some use of a oe.utils.trim_version function
Feb 08 15:06:36 <dv_> ah good find
