`idf-build-apps` is a tool that helps users find and build [ESP-IDF][esp-idf] projects faster.

## What is an `app`?

An [ESP-IDF][esp-idf] project would typically contain:

- Build recipe in CMake and the main component with app sources
- (Optional) One or more [sdkconfig][sdkconfig] files

`app` is the abbreviation for application. An application is the binary that is being built with the specified [sdkconfig][sdkconfig] and the target chip. `idf-build-apps` could build one project into a number of applications.

## Installation

```shell
pip install idf-build-apps
```

## Basic Usage

`idf-build-apps` is a callable python package. It contains two sub-commands.

- `find` to find the buildable applications
- `build` to build the found applications

For detailed explanation to all CLI options, you may run

```shell
python -m idf_build_apps -h
python -m idf_build_apps find -h
python -m idf_build_apps build -h
```

## Quick Example

To build the applications for all targets of the [ESP-IDF hello world example project][hello-world] under ESP-IDF v5.0:

```shell
python -m idf_build_apps build -p $IDF_PATH/examples/get-started/hello_world/ --target all --build-dir build_@t
```

It would get the default [supported targets][supported-targets] from your IDF version, build the [hello world project][hello-world] with all targets and the default `sdkconfig` file.
