What is Orchestra?

Orchestra is a meta build system. Its job is to automate the repetitive tasks required to build a complex software project with many dependencies.

How does it work?

TODO - write about:

• fundamental concepts (components, builds, dependencies)
• actions (clone, configure, install)
• binary archives
• "root portability" (rpath, etc)
• usage examples
• integration with git

Configuring Orchestra

See the documentation in /docs.

Usage

TODO - document Orchestra usage

Installing

python setup.py bdist_wheel
pip install --user dist/orchestra*.whl

Development setup

Creating a dedicated virtualenv is highly suggested

python3 -m venv virtualenv
. ./virtualenv/bin/activate
python setup.py develop
