Aims

See the following thread (cross-posted to OE/Yocto mailing lists): [1] [2] [3]

Existing tasks

Key:

# - enabled/disabled by appropriate MACHINE_FEATURES or DISTRO_FEATURES

 % - substitutable using a variable in distro config (e.g. VIRTUAL_RUNTIME_*)

Note: recipe descriptions are extracted from the DESCRIPTION field in the recipe, and as you can see they need improvement.

The previous table was mostly assembled using this script (with a bunch of editing afterwards, of course - you also have to force on all DISTRO_FEATURES/MACHINE_FEATURES if processing tasks like task-base that look at those variables):

#!/bin/bash
# Hacked up OE task info extraction script

extractvalue() {
    grep "^$1=" $tempfile | sed -e "s/^$1=\"//" -e 's/"$//' -E -e "s/[ \t]+/ /g"
}

if [ -z "$1" ] ; then
    echo "Please specify a recipe"
    exit 1
fi

tempfile=`mktemp`
bitbake -e $1 > $tempfile

PACKAGES=`extractvalue PACKAGES`
maindesc=`extractvalue DESCRIPTION`
cgiturl="http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/"
recipe=`extractvalue FILE | sed 's!^.*/meta!meta!'`

echo "!colspan=\"5\"|''[${cgiturl}${recipe} $1]''<BR>$maindesc"
echo "|-"
for pkg in $PACKAGES ; do
    echo "$pkg" | grep -q -- '-dev$' && continue
    echo "$pkg" | grep -q -- '-dbg$' && continue
    echo "$pkg" | grep -q -- '-doc$' && continue
    echo "$pkg" | grep -q -- '-staticdev$' && continue
    echo "$pkg" | grep -q -- '-locale$' && continue
    deps=`extractvalue RDEPENDS_$pkg | sed 's/ /<BR>/g'`
    recs=`extractvalue RRECOMMENDS_$pkg | sed 's/ /<BR>/g'`
    echo "||$pkg||$deps||$recs||"
    echo "|-"
done
