depot_tools
Tools for Chromium development. Requires Python 3.8+.
gsutil: Python 3.9–3.13 required.
Tools
The most important tools are:
fetch: Agclientwrapper to checkout a project. Usefetch --helpfor more details.gclient: A meta-checkout tool. Think repo or git submodules, except that it support OS-specific rules, e.g. do not checkout Windows only dependencies when checking out for Android. Usegclient helpfor more details and README.gclient.md.git cl: A code review tool to interact with Rietveld or Gerrit. Usegit cl helpfor more details and README.git-cl.md.roll-dep: A gclient dependency management tool to submit a dep roll, updating a dependency to a newer revision.
There are a lot of git utilities included.
Also, includes shell script/batch file for tools required to build chromium, e.g.
gn: a meta-build system that generates build files for Ninjaautoninja: a wrapper forsisoandninja.siso: a build tool that aims to significantly speed up Chromium's build.ninja: a small build system with a focus on speed. deprecated by Siso.
These shell script/batch file runs python script with python-bin/python3
that find binaries in chromium checkout, and run with proper setup/check.
To use these wrappers, you need to initialize/bootstrap depot_tools (using
gclient, update_depot_tools or ensure_bootstrap).
Installing
See set-up documentation.
depot_tools is also available in
-
chromium's third_party/depot_tools: propagated by autoroller.
-
on builder: infra_internal/recipe_bundles/chrome-internal.googlesource.com/chrome/tools/build bundles depot_tools. propagated by build_internal recipe roller
These depot_tools would not be initialized/bootstrapped (i.e. no
python-bin/python3 binary available), so the build tool wrapper won't work,
unless it is explicitly initialized by ensure_bootstrap.
Or, directly call the python script instead of using the shell script/batch
file.
Updating
depot_tools updates itself automatically when running gclient tool. To
disable auto update, set the environment variable DEPOT_TOOLS_UPDATE=0 or
run ./update_depot_tools_toggle.py --disable.
To update package manually, run update_depot_tools.bat on Windows,
or ./update_depot_tools on Linux or Mac.
Running gclient will install python3 binary.

cpplint.py
Until 2018, our cpplint.py was a copy of the upstream version at
https://github.com/google/styleguide/tree/gh-pages/cpplint. Unfortunately, that
repository is not maintained any more.
If you want to update cpplint.py in depot_tools, just upload a patch to do
so. We will figure out a long-term strategy via issue https://crbug.com/916550.
