Create an interactive porting tool
`blueprint-compiler port` interactively ports a project to blueprint. It will create the subproject wrap file, add it to .gitignore, decompile your GtkBuilder XML files, emit code to copy and paste into your meson.build file, and update POTFILES.in. It can't quite handle all of the features the forward compiler can, so it will skip those files.

Using the porting tool
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Clone [blueprint-compiler](https://gitlab.gnome.org/jwestman/blueprint-compiler)
|
||||
from source. You can install it using `meson _build` and `ninja -C _build install`,
|
||||
or you can leave it uninstalled.
|
||||
|
||||
In your project's directory, run `blueprint-compiler port` (or `<path to blueprint-compiler.py> port`)
|
||||
to start the porting process. It will walk you through the steps outlined below.
|
||||
It should work for most projects, but if something goes wrong you may need to
|
||||
follow the manual steps instead.
