# Modules
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition to core language features, Meson also provides a module system aimed at providing helper methods for common build operations. Using modules is simple, first you import them:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```meson
|
||
|
|
mymod = import('somemodule')
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After this you can use the returned object to use the functionality provided:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```meson
|
||
|
|
mymod.do_something('text argument')
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Meson has a selection of modules to make common requirements easy to
|
||
|
|
use. Modules can be thought of like the standard library of a
|
||
|
|
programming language. Currently Meson provides the modules listed on
|
||
|
|
subpages.
