WirePlumber

WirePlumber is a modular session / policy manager for PipeWire and a GObject-based high-level library that wraps PipeWire's API, providing convenience for writing the daemon's modules as well as external tools for managing PipeWire.

Compiling

Dependencies

In order to compile WirePlumber you will need:

GLib >= 2.58
PipeWire 0.3 (master)

At the moment, due to heavy development of both PipeWire and WirePlumber, it is not always the case that the latest master of WirePlumber works with the latest master of PipeWire. The safest PipeWire branch to use with WirePlumber master is the agl-next branch from my personal clone

Compilation

WirePlumber uses the meson build system. For compatibility and ease of use, though, a Makefile is also provided. The Makefile works only after the initial configuration of the project with meson.

Here is the very basic sequence of compiling for the first time:

$ meson build
$ make

Running automated tests

WirePlumber has a few automated tests that you can easily run with:

$ make test
