# `build-aux` folder
This folder contains:
- Various formatting scripts:
- `run-clang-format` which formats C/C++/ObjC/ObjC++ files
- `run-cmake-format` which formats CMake files
- `run-swift-format` which formats Swift files
- `format-manifest.py` which formats Flatpak manifest JSON files
- The Flatpak manifest used to build OBS Studio
- Files used for Steam packaging
## Formatting scripts
### `run-clang-format`
This script allows to check the formatting and/or format of C/C++/ObjC/ObjC++ files and requires ZSH and a specific version of `clang-format`.
If the script does not find the latter it will return the required version, we provide `clang-format` Homebrew formulas in our [homebrew-tools repo](https://github.com/obsproject/homebrew-tools/).
Example of use:
```sh
./build-aux/run-clang-format
```
### `run-cmake-format`
This script allows to check the formatting and/or format of the CMake files and requires ZSH and `cmakelang` (`cmake-format`) Python package.
Example of use:
```sh
./build-aux/run-cmake-format
```
### `run-swift-format`
This script allows to check the formatting and/or format of the Swift files and requires ZSH and `swift-format`.
Example of use:
```sh
./build-aux/run-swift-format
```
### `format-manifest.py`
This script allows to check the formatting and/or format of the Flatpak manifest and its modules.
Example of use:
```sh
python3 ./build-aux/format-manifest.py com.obsproject.Studio.json
```
## OBS Studio Flatpak Manifest
The manifest is composed of multiple files:
- The main manifest `com.obsproject.Studio.json`
- The `modules` folder which contains OBS Studio dependencies modules
### Manifest modules
Modules are ordered/dispatched in numbered categories following a short list of rules:
- A module must not depend on another module from the same category, so a module can only depend on modules from lower numbered categories.
- A module without dependencies must be placed in the highest numbered category in use, excluding categories meant for specific types of dependency.
Actual categories:
- `99-`: CEF
- `90-`: Headers-only libraries that are dependencies of only OBS Studio
- `50-`: Modules that are dependencies of only OBS Studio
- `40-`: Modules that are dependencies of the `50-` category
- `30-`: FFmpeg
- `20-`: Modules that are dependencies of FFmpeg
- `10-`: Modules that are dependencies of the `20-` category
