## Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
While **not required** (most settings can be specified in the UI), projects can add an `objdiff.json` (or
|
||||
`objdiff.yaml`, `objdiff.yml`) file to configure the tool automatically. The configuration file must be located in
|
||||
While **not required** (most settings can be specified in the UI), projects can add an `objdiff.json` file to configure the tool automatically. The configuration file must be located in
|
||||
the root project directory.
|
||||
|
||||
If your project has a generator script (e.g. `configure.py`), it's recommended to generate the objdiff configuration
|
||||
file as well. You can then add `objdiff.json` to your `.gitignore` to prevent it from being committed.

### Schema
|
||||
|
||||
View [config.schema.json](config.schema.json) for all available options. The below list is a summary of the most important options.
|
||||
|
||||
`custom_make` _(optional)_: By default, objdiff will use `make` to build the project.
|
||||
If the project uses a different build system (e.g. `ninja`), specify it here.
|
||||
The build command will be `[custom_make] [custom_args] path/to/object.o`.
|
||||
|
||||
`custom_args` _(optional)_: Additional arguments to pass to the build command prior to the object path.
|
||||
|
||||
`target_dir` _(optional)_: Relative from the root of the project, this where the "target" or "expected" objects are located.
|
||||
These are the **intended result** of the match.
|
||||
|
||||
`base_dir` _(optional)_: Relative from the root of the project, this is where the "base" or "actual" objects are located.
|
||||
These are objects built from the **current source code**.
|
||||
|
||||
`build_target`: If true, objdiff will tell the build system to build the target objects before diffing (e.g.
|
||||
`make path/to/target.o`).
|
||||
This is useful if the target objects are not built by default or can change based on project configuration or edits
|
||||
to assembly files.
|
||||
Requires the build system to be configured properly.
|
||||
|
||||
`build_base`: If true, objdiff will tell the build system to build the base objects before diffing (e.g. `make path/to/base.o`).
|
||||
It's unlikely you'll want to disable this, unless you're using an external tool to rebuild the base object on source file changes.
|
||||
|
||||
`watch_patterns` _(optional)_: A list of glob patterns to watch for changes.
|
||||
([Supported syntax](https://docs.rs/globset/latest/globset/#syntax))
|
||||
If any of these files change, objdiff will automatically rebuild the objects and re-compare them.
|
||||
If not specified, objdiff will use the default patterns listed above.
|
||||
|
||||
`objects` _(optional)_: If specified, objdiff will display a list of objects in the sidebar for easy navigation.
|
||||
`units` _(optional)_: If specified, objdiff will display a list of objects in the sidebar for easy navigation.
|
||||
|
||||
> `name` _(optional)_: The name of the object in the UI. If not specified, the object's `path` will be used.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> `path`: Relative path to the object from the `target_dir` and `base_dir`.
|
||||
> Requires `target_dir` and `base_dir` to be specified.
|
||||
> `target_path`: Path to the "target" or "expected" object from the project root.
|
||||
> This object is the **intended result** of the match.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> `target_path`: Path to the target object from the project root.
|
||||
> Required if `path` is not specified.
|
||||
> `base_path`: Path to the "base" or "actual" object from the project root.
|
||||
> This object is built from the **current source code**.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> `base_path`: Path to the base object from the project root.
|
||||
> Required if `path` is not specified.
|
||||
> `metadata.auto_generated` _(optional)_: Hides the object from the object list, but still includes it in reports.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> `reverse_fn_order` _(optional)_: Displays function symbols in reversed order.
|
||||
Used to support MWCC's `-inline deferred` option, which reverses the order of functions in the object file.
|
||||
> `metadata.complete` _(optional)_: Marks the object as "complete" (or "linked") in the object list.
|
||||
> This is useful for marking objects that are fully decompiled. A value of `false` will mark the object as "incomplete".
