Function makeTempPath [src]

This function is intended to be called in the configure phase only. It returns an absolute directory path, which is potentially going to be a source of API breakage in the future, so keep that in mind when using this function.

Prototype

pub fn makeTempPath(b: *Build) []const u8

Parameters

b: *Build

Source

  pub fn makeTempPath(b: *Build) []const u8 {
    const rand_int = std.crypto.random.int(u64);
    const tmp_dir_sub_path = "tmp" ++ fs.path.sep_str ++ std.fmt.hex(rand_int);
    const result_path = b.cache_root.join(b.allocator, &.{tmp_dir_sub_path}) catch @panic("OOM");
    b.cache_root.handle.makePath(tmp_dir_sub_path) catch |err| {
        std.debug.print("unable to make tmp path '{s}': {s}\n", .{
            result_path, @errorName(err),
        });
    };
    return result_path;
}
