Environment Variables

DCR_COMPILER​

Overrides the compiler for all languages. Highest priority.

export DCR_COMPILER=clang
dcr build

Compiler resolution priority:

  1. DCR_COMPILER (env)
  2. DCR_CC / DCR_CXX / DCR_AS (env)
  3. [toolchain] (dcr.toml)
  4. build.compiler (dcr.toml)
  5. PATH

DCR_CC / DCR_CXX / DCR_AS​

Per-language override (lower priority than DCR_COMPILER, higher than [toolchain]).

export DCR_CC=gcc-14
export DCR_CXX=g++-14
export DCR_AS=arm-linux-gnueabihf-as

DCR_LD / DCR_AR​

Override linker and archiver.

export DCR_LD=ld.lld
export DCR_AR=llvm-ar

DCR_DEBUG​

Enables debug mode — prints all compilation commands to stderr before execution.

export DCR_DEBUG=1
dcr build

DCR_INDEX_PATH​

Overrides the path to the registry index.json.

export DCR_INDEX_PATH=/custom/path/index.json

Default: ~/.dcr/index.json.
