| # Modules |
| |
| In addition to core language features, Meson also provides a module |
| system aimed at providing helper methods for common build operations. |
| Using modules is simple, first you import them: |
| |
| ```meson |
| mymod = import('somemodule') |
| ``` |
| |
| After this you can use the returned object to use the functionality |
| provided: |
| |
| ```meson |
| mymod.do_something('text argument') |
| ``` |
| |
| Meson has a selection of modules to make common requirements easy to |
| use. Modules can be thought of like the standard library of a |
| programming language. Currently Meson provides the modules listed on |
| subpages. |
