I've been banging my head against this for long enough I think I may just be dumb.

fan.props            <- Path = proj/work
lib                  <- Pod file output directory (desired xeto.installDir)

proj
  ├── work
  │   ├── xeto.props
  │   ├── src           <- Current working directory (cwd)
  │   │   ├── mylib     <- Xeto source
  │   │   │   ├── lib.xeto
  │
dist
  ├── haxall-3.1.11
  │   ├── bin
  │   ├── lib

xeto env

xeto.mode:       xeto.props
xeto.workDir:    parent/proj/work
xeto.homeDir:    parent/dist/haxall-3.1.11
xeto.installDir: parent/proj/work
xeto.path:
  parent/proj/work
  parent/dist/haxall-3.1.11

xeto build

[19:48:30 13-Mar-25] [info] [xeto] FileRepo scan [8ms]
ERROR: no libs found [parent]

Shouldn't it be looking in parent/proj/work first, not parent? I've tried adding xeto.props in different areas, changing the paths, I don't understand what I'm missing.

Any ideas?

The tools requires your source to be organized under "src/xeto/{lib name}". So you need to add a xeto directory above mylib.

See setup docs

Or you can use xeto init to stub a lib in the correct directory

Ah, so I'm dislexic. I had xeto/src instead. Thank you :)
