externalsrc.bbclass? In my current project we have a simplified version in a ”component.bbclass”. It relies on a variable COMPONENT_DIR defined in our local.conf.
A recipe located in ”recipe-xxxx/<package>/<package>_$PV.bb” doing inherit component will find its source code in $COMPONENT_DIR/<package>, making the recipe simpler than that of the externalsrc bbclass. No need for SRC_URI statements. We check out meta layers and the components using repo so the components are always located in $COMPONENTS_DIR. Been thinking of upstreaming this, but I am unsure about the interest.
