Building
|
||
========
|
||
|
||
The remote agent is included in the default Firefox build, but only
|
||
ships on the Firefox Nightly release channel:
|
||
|
||
% ./mach run --remote-debugging-port
|
||
|
||
The source code can be found under [remote/ in central].
|
||
|
||
There are two build modes to choose from:
|
||
|
||
Full build mode
|
||
---------------
|
||
|
||
The remote agent supports only Firefox, and is included when you
|
||
build in the usual way:
|
||
|
||
% ./mach build
|
||
|
||
When you make changes to XPCOM component files you need to rebuild
|
||
in order for the changes to take effect. The most efficient way to
|
||
do this, provided you haven’t touched any compiled code (C++ or Rust):
|
||
|
||
% ./mach build faster
|
||
|
||
Component files include the likes of components.conf,
|
||
RemoteAgent.manifest, moz.build files, and jar.mn.
|
||
All the JS modules (files ending with `.jsm`) are symlinked into
|
||
the build and can be changed without rebuilding.
|
||
The remote agent’s startup code found under remote/startup/
|
||
is written in Rust and requires rebuilds when changed.
|
||
|
||
You may also opt out of building the remote agent entirely by setting
|
||
the `--disable-cdp` build flag in your [mozconfig]:
|
||
|
||
ac_add_options --disable-cdp
|
||
|
||
|
||
Artifact mode
|
||
-------------
|
||
|
||
You may also use [artifact builds] when working on the remote agent.
|
||
This fast build mode downloads pre-built components from the Mozilla
|
||
build servers, rendering local compilation unnecessary. To use
|
||
them, place this in your [mozconfig]:
|
||
|
||
ac_add_options --enable-artifact-builds
|
||
|
||
|
||
[remote/ in central]: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/remote
|
||
[mozconfig]: ../build/buildsystem/mozconfigs.html
|
