"template: Define a template rule.\n"
"\n"
" A template defines a custom rule name that can expand to one or more\n"
" other rules (typically built-in rules like \"static_library\"). It\n"
" provides a way to add to the built-in target types.\n"
"\n"
" The template() function is used to declare a template. To invoke the\n"
" template, just use the name of the template like any other target\n"
" type.\n"
"\n"
"More details:\n"
"\n"
" Semantically, the code in the template is stored. When a function\n"
" with the name is called, the block following the invocation is\n"
" executed, *then* your template code is executed. So if the invocation\n"
" sets the |source| variable, for example, that variable will be\n"
" accessible to you when the template code runs.\n"
"\n"
" The template() function does not generate a closure, so the\n"
" environment, current directory, etc. will all be the same as from\n"
" the template is invoked.\n"
"\n"
"Hints:\n"
"\n"
" If your template expands to more than one target, be sure to name\n"
" the intermediate targets based on the name of the template\n"
" instantiation so that the names are globally unique. The variable\n"
" |target_name| will be this name.\n"
"\n"
" Likewise, you will always want to generate a target in your template\n"
" with the original |target_name|. Otherwise, invoking your template\n"
" will not actually generate a node in the dependency graph that other\n"
" targets can reference.\n"
"\n"
" Often you will want to declare your template in a special file that\n"
" other files will import (see \"gn help import\") so your template\n"
" rule can be shared across build files.\n"
"\n"
"Example of defining a template:\n"
"\n"
" template(\"my_idl\") {\n"
" # Maps input files to output files, used in both targets below.\n"
" filter = [ \"$target_gen_dir/{{source_name_part}}.cc\",\n"
" \"$target_gen_dir/{{source_name_part}}.h\" ]\n"
"\n"
" # Intermediate target to compile IDL to C source.\n"
" custom(\"${target_name}_code_gen\") {\n"
" # The |sources| will be inherited from the surrounding scope so\n"
" # we don't need to redefine it.\n"
" script = \"foo.py\"\n"
" outputs = filter # Variable from above.\n"
" }\n"
"\n"
" # Name the static library the same as the template invocation so\n"
" # instanting this template produces something that other targets\n"
" # can link to in their deps.\n"
" static_library(target_name) {\n"
" # Generates the list of sources.\n"
" # See \"gn help process_file_template\"\n"
" sources = process_file_template(sources, filter)\n"
" }\n"
" }\n"
"\n"
"Example of invoking the resulting template:\n"
"\n"
" my_idl(\"foo_idl_files\") {\n"
" sources = [ \"foo.idl\", \"bar.idl\" ]\n"
" }\n";
