| 5 | ---------------- |
Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 6 | The Pigweed module structure is designed to keep as much code as possible for a |
| 7 | particular slice of functionality in one place. That means including the code |
| 8 | from multiple languages, as well as all the related documentation and tests. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | Additionally, the structure is designed to limit the number of places a file |
| 11 | could go, so that when reading callsites it is obvious where a header is from. |
| 12 | That is where the duplicated ``<module>`` occurrences in file paths comes from. |

Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 95 | Pigweed upstream modules are always named with a prefix ``pw_`` to enforce |
| 96 | namespacing. Projects using Pigweed that wish to make their own modules can use |
| 97 | whatever name they like, but we suggest picking a short prefix to namespace |
| 98 | your product (e.g. for an Internet of Toast project, perhaps the prefix could |
| 99 | be ``it_``). |

| 104 | C++ public headers |
Ewout van Bekkum | e072fab | 2020-07-17 16:34:00 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 105 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 106 | Located ``{pw_module_dir}/public/<module>``. These are headers that must be |
| 107 | exposed due to C++ limitations (i.e. are included from the public interface, |
| 108 | but are not intended for public use). |
| 109 | |
| 110 | **Public headers** should take the form: |
| 111 | |
| 112 | ``{pw_module_dir}/public/<module>/*.h`` |
| 113 | |
| 114 | **Exposed private headers** should take the form: |
| 115 | |
| 116 | ``{pw_module_dir}/public/<module>/internal/*.h`` |
| 117 | |
| 118 | Examples: |
| 119 | |
| 120 | .. code-block:: |
| 121 | |
| 122 | pw_foo/... |
| 123 | public/pw_foo/foo.h |
| 124 | public/pw_foo/a_header.h |
| 125 | public/pw_foo/baz.h |
| 126 | |
| 127 | For headers that must be exposed due to C++ limitations (i.e. are included from |
| 128 | the public interface, but are not intended for use), place the headers in a |
| 129 | ``internal`` subfolder under the public headers directory; as |
| 130 | ``{pw_module_dir}/public/<module>/internal/*.h``. For example: |
| 131 | |
| 132 | .. code-block:: |
| 133 | |
| 134 | pw_foo/... |
| 135 | public/pw_foo/internal/secret.h |
| 136 | public/pw_foo/internal/business.h |
| 137 | |
| 138 | .. note:: |
| 139 | |
| 140 | These headers must not override headers from other modules. For |
| 141 | that, there is the ``public_overrides/`` directory. |
| 142 | |

| 144 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 145 | Located ``{pw_module_dir}/public_overrides/<module>``. In general, the Pigweed |
| 146 | philosophy is to avoid having "things hiding under rocks", and having header |
| 147 | files with the same name that can override each other is considered a rock |
| 148 | where surprising things can hide. Additionally, a design goal of the Pigweed |
| 149 | module structure is to make it so there is ideally exactly one obvious place |
| 150 | to find a header based on an ``#include``. |
| 151 | |
| 152 | However, in some cases header overrides are necessary to enable flexibly |
| 153 | combining modules. To make this as explicit as possible, headers which override |
| 154 | other headers must go in |
| 155 | |
| 156 | ``{pw_module_dir}/public_overrides/...``` |
| 157 | |
| 158 | For example, the ``pw_unit_test`` module provides a header override for |
| 159 | ``gtest/gtest.h``. The structure of the module is (omitting some files): |
| 160 | |
| 161 | .. code-block:: |
| 162 | |
| 163 | pw_unit_test/... |
| 164 | |
| 165 | public_overrides/gtest |
| 166 | public_overrides/gtest/gtest.h |
| 167 | |
| 168 | public/pw_unit_test |
| 169 | public/pw_unit_test/framework.h |
| 170 | public/pw_unit_test/simple_printing_event_handler.h |
| 171 | public/pw_unit_test/event_handler.h |
| 172 | |
| 173 | Note that the overrides are in a separate directory ``public_overrides``. |

| 178 | the module. Implementation files must always use "" style includes. |

| 192 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| 193 | Pigweed modules are intended to be used in a wide variety of environments. |
| 194 | In support of this, some modules expose compile-time configuration options. |
| 195 | Pigweed has an established pattern for declaring and overriding module |
| 196 | configuration. |
| 197 | |
| 198 | .. tip:: |
| 199 | |
| 200 | Compile-time configuration provides flexibility, but also imposes |
| 201 | restrictions. A module can only have one configuration in a given build. |
Wyatt Hepler | 2fb36b9 | 2020-10-29 13:15:34 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 202 | This makes testing modules with compile-time configuration more difficult. |
| 203 | Where appropriate, consider alternatives such as C++ templates or runtime |
Wyatt Hepler | e0575f7 | 2020-10-16 10:47:03 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 204 | configuration. |
| 205 | |
| 206 | Declaring configuration |
| 207 | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
Wyatt Hepler | 75a1abf | 2021-02-10 14:29:41 -0800 | [diff] [blame] | 208 | Configuration options are declared in a header file as macros. If the macro is |
| 209 | not already defined, a default definition is provided. Otherwise, nothing is |
| 210 | done. Configuration headers may include ``static_assert`` statements to validate |
| 211 | configuration values. |
Wyatt Hepler | e0575f7 | 2020-10-16 10:47:03 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 212 | |
| 213 | .. code-block:: c++ |
| 214 | |
| 215 | // Example configuration header |
| 216 | |
| 217 | #ifndef PW_FOO_INPUT_BUFFER_SIZE_BYTES |
| 218 | #define PW_FOO_INPUT_BUFFER_SIZE_BYTES 128 |
| 219 | #endif // PW_FOO_INPUT_BUFFER_SIZE_BYTES |
| 220 | |
| 221 | static_assert(PW_FOO_INPUT_BUFFER_SIZE_BYTES >= 64); |
| 222 | |
| 223 | The configuration header may go in one of three places in the module, depending |
| 224 | on whether the header should be exposed by the module or not. |
| 225 | |
| 226 | .. code-block:: |
| 227 | |
| 228 | pw_foo/... |
| 229 | |
| 230 | # Publicly accessible configuration header |
| 231 | public/pw_foo/config.h |
| 232 | |
| 233 | # Internal configuration header that is included by other module headers |
| 234 | public/pw_foo/internal/config.h |
| 235 | |
| 236 | # Internal configuration header |
| 237 | pw_foo_private/config.h |
| 238 | |
| 239 | The configuration header is provided by a build system library. This library |
| 240 | acts as a :ref:`facade<docs-module-structure-facades>`. The facade uses a |
| 241 | variable such as ``pw_foo_CONFIG``. In upstream Pigweed, all config facades |
| 242 | default to the ``pw_build_DEFAULT_MODULE_CONFIG`` backend. In the GN build |
| 243 | system, the config facade is declared as follows: |
| 244 | |
| 245 | .. code-block:: |
| 246 | |
| 247 | declare_args() { |
| 248 | # The build target that overrides the default configuration options for this |
| 249 | # module. This should point to a source set that provides defines through a |
| 250 | # public config (which may -include a file or add defines directly). |
| 251 | pw_foo_CONFIG = pw_build_DEFAULT_MODULE_CONFIG |
| 252 | } |
| 253 | |
Wyatt Hepler | 2fb36b9 | 2020-10-29 13:15:34 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 254 | # An example source set for each potential config header location follows. |
| 255 | |
Wyatt Hepler | e0575f7 | 2020-10-16 10:47:03 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 256 | # Publicly accessible configuration header (most common) |
| 257 | pw_source_set("config") { |
| 258 | public = [ "public/pw_foo/config.h" ] |
| 259 | public_configs = [ ":public_include_path" ] |
| 260 | public_deps = [ pw_foo_CONFIG ] |
| 261 | } |
| 262 | |
| 263 | # Internal configuration header that is included by other module headers |
| 264 | pw_source_set("config") { |
| 265 | sources = [ "public/pw_foo/internal/config.h" ] |
| 266 | public_configs = [ ":public_include_path" ] |
| 267 | public_deps = [ pw_foo_CONFIG ] |
| 268 | visibility = [":*"] # Only allow this module to depend on ":config" |
| 269 | friend = [":*"] # Allow this module to access the config.h header. |
| 270 | } |
| 271 | |
| 272 | # Internal configuration header |
| 273 | pw_source_set("config") { |
| 274 | public = [ "pw_foo_private/config.h" ] |
| 275 | public_deps = [ pw_foo_CONFIG ] |
| 276 | visibility = [":*"] # Only allow this module to depend on ":config" |
| 277 | } |
| 278 | |
| 279 | Overriding configuration |
| 280 | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| 281 | As noted above, all module configuration facades default to the same backend |
| 282 | (``pw_build_DEFAULT_MODULE_CONFIG``). This allows projects to override |
| 283 | configuration values for multiple modules from a single configuration backend, |
| 284 | if desired. The configuration values may also be overridden individually by |
| 285 | setting backends for the individual module configurations (e.g. in GN, |
| 286 | ``pw_foo_CONFIG = "//configuration:my_foo_config"``). |
| 287 | |
Wyatt Hepler | 75a1abf | 2021-02-10 14:29:41 -0800 | [diff] [blame] | 288 | Configurations options are overridden by setting macros in the config backend. |
| 289 | These macro definitions can be provided through compilation options, such as |
| 290 | ``-DPW_FOO_INPUT_BUFFER_SIZE_BYTES=256``. Configuration macro definitions may |
| 291 | also be set in a header file. The header file is included using the ``-include`` |
| 292 | compilation option. |

Wyatt Hepler | 75a1abf | 2021-02-10 14:29:41 -0800 | [diff] [blame] | 325 | .. admonition:: Why this config pattern is preferred |
| 326 | |
| 327 | Alternate patterns for configuring a module include overriding the module's |
| 328 | config header or having that header optionally include a header at a known |
| 329 | path (e.g. ``pw_foo/config_overrides.h``). There are a few downsides to these |
| 330 | approaches: |
| 331 | |
| 332 | * The module needs its own config header that defines, provides defaults for, |
| 333 | and validates the configuration options. Replacing this header with a |
| 334 | user-defined header would require defining all options in the user's header, |
| 335 | which is cumbersome and brittle, and would bypass validation in the module's |
| 336 | header. |
| 337 | * Including a config override header at a particular path would prevent |
| 338 | multiple modules from sharing the same configuration file. Multiple headers |
| 339 | could redirect to the same configuration file, but this would still require |
| 340 | creating a separate header and setting the config backend variable for each |
| 341 | module. |
| 342 | * Optionally including a config override header requires boilerplate code that |
| 343 | would have to be duplicated in every configurable module. |
| 344 | * An optional config override header file would silently be excluded if the |
| 345 | file path were accidentally misspelled. |

| 348 | ----------------------- |
| 349 | Python code is structured as described in the :ref:`docs-python-build-structure` |
| 350 | section of :ref:`docs-python-build`. |
| 351 | |

| 353 | |
| 354 | Facades |
| 355 | ------- |
| 356 | In Pigweed, facades represent a dependency that can be swapped at compile time. |
| 357 | Facades are similar in concept to a virtual interface, but the implementation is |
| 358 | set by the build system. Runtime polymorphism with facades is not |
| 359 | possible, and each facade may only have one implementation (backend) per |
| 360 | toolchain compilation. |
| 361 | |
| 362 | In the simplest sense, a facade is just a dependency represented by a variable. |
| 363 | For example, the ``pw_log`` facade is represented by the ``pw_log_BACKEND`` |
| 364 | build variable. Facades typically are bundled with a build system library that |
| 365 | depends on the backend. |
| 366 | |
Wyatt Hepler | e0575f7 | 2020-10-16 10:47:03 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 367 | Facades are essential in some circumstances: |
| 368 | |
| 369 | * Low-level, platform-specific features (:ref:`module-pw_cpu_exception`). |
| 370 | * Features that require a macro or non-virtual function interface |

| 376 | |
| 377 | Modules should only use facades when necessary. Facades are permanently locked |
| 378 | to a particular implementation at compile time. Multpile backends cannot be |
| 379 | used in one build, and runtime dependency injection is not possible, which |
| 380 | makes testing difficult. Where appropriate, modules should use other |
| 381 | mechanisms, such as virtual interfaces, callbacks, or templates, in place of |
| 382 | facades. |

| 384 | The GN build system provides the |
| 385 | :ref:`pw_facade template<module-pw_build-facade>` as a convenient way to declare |
| 386 | facades. |

Keir Mierle | 16f86f4 | 2020-08-09 01:01:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 389 | ------------- |
Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 390 | Documentation should go in the root module folder, typically in the |
| 391 | ``docs.rst`` file. There must be a docgen entry for the documentation in the |
| 392 | ``BUILD.gn`` file with the target name ``docs``; so the full target for the |
| 393 | docs would be ``<module>:docs``. |
| 394 | |
| 395 | .. code-block:: |
| 396 | |
| 397 | pw_example_module/... |
| 398 | |
| 399 | docs.rst |
| 400 | |
| 401 | For modules with more involved documentation, create a separate directory |
| 402 | called ``docs/`` under the module root, and put the ``.rst`` files and other |
| 403 | related files (like images and diagrams) there. |
| 404 | |
| 405 | .. code-block:: |
| 406 | |
| 407 | pw_example_module/... |
| 408 | |
| 409 | docs/docs.rst |
| 410 | docs/bar.rst |
| 411 | docs/foo.rst |

| 416 | ----------------------------- |
| 417 | To create a new Pigweed module, follow the below steps. |
Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 418 | |
Keir Mierle | 16f86f4 | 2020-08-09 01:01:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 419 | .. tip:: |
| 420 | |
| 421 | Connect with the Pigweed community (by `mailing the Pigweed list |
| 422 | <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/pigweed>`_ or `raising your idea |
| 423 | in the Pigweed chat <https://discord.gg/M9NSeTA>`_) to discuss your module |
| 424 | idea before getting too far into the implementation. This can prevent |
| 425 | accidentally duplicating work, or avoiding writing code that won't get |
| 426 | accepted. |
Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 427 | |
| 428 | 1. Create module folder following `Module name`_ guidelines |
| 429 | 2. Add `C++ public headers`_ files in |
| 430 | ``{pw_module_dir}/public/{pw_module_name}/`` |
| 431 | 3. Add `C++ implementation files`_ files in ``{pw_module_dir}/`` |
| 432 | 4. Add module documentation |
| 433 | |
| 434 | - Add ``{pw_module_dir}/README.md`` that has a module summary |
| 435 | - Add ``{pw_module_dir}/docs.rst`` that contains the main module |
| 436 | documentation |
| 437 | |
| 438 | 5. Add build support inside of new module |
| 439 | |
| 440 | - Add GN with ``{pw_module_dir}/BUILD.gn`` |
| 441 | - Add Bazel with ``{pw_module_dir}/BUILD`` |
| 442 | - Add CMake with ``{pw_module_dir}/CMakeLists.txt`` |
| 443 | |
| 444 | 6. Add folder alias for new module variable in ``/modules.gni`` |
| 445 | |
Wyatt Hepler | 2fb36b9 | 2020-10-29 13:15:34 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 446 | - ``dir_pw_new = get_path_info("pw_new", "abspath")`` |
Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 447 | |
| 448 | 7. Add new module to main GN build |
| 449 | |
| 450 | - in ``/BUILD.gn`` to ``group("pw_modules")`` using folder alias variable |
Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 451 | |
| 452 | 8. Add test target for new module in ``/BUILD.gn`` to |
| 453 | ``pw_test_group("pw_module_tests")`` |
| 454 | 9. Add new module to CMake build |
| 455 | |
| 456 | - In ``/CMakeLists.txt`` add ``add_subdirectory(pw_new)`` |
| 457 | |
| 458 | 10. Add the new module to docs module |
| 459 | |
| 460 | - Add in ``docs/BUILD.gn`` to ``pw_doc_gen("docs")`` |
| 461 | |
Wyatt Hepler | f9fb90f | 2020-09-30 18:59:33 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 462 | 11. Run :ref:`module-pw_module-module-check` |
Alexei Frolov | b3f7fda | 2020-03-18 14:59:20 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 463 | |
| 464 | - ``$ pw module-check {pw_module_dir}`` |
| 465 | |
Wyatt Hepler | f9fb90f | 2020-09-30 18:59:33 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 466 | 12. Contribute your module to upstream Pigweed (optional but encouraged!) |
