+                    BitBake is able to build multiple images or packages
+                    using a single command where the different targets
+                    require different configurations (multiple configuration
+                    builds).
+                    Each target, in this scenario, is referred to as a
+                    "multiconfig".
+                </para>
+
+                <para>
+                    To accomplish a multiple configuration build, you must
+                    define each target's configuration separately using
+                    a parallel configuration file in the build directory.
+                    The location for these multiconfig configuration files
+                    is specific.
+                    They must reside in the current build directory in
+                    a sub-directory of <filename>conf</filename> named
+                    <filename>multiconfig</filename>.
+                    Following is an example for two separate targets:
+                    <imagedata fileref="figures/bb_multiconfig_files.png" align="center" width="4in" depth="3in" />

+                    The reason for this required file hierarchy
+                    is because the <filename>BBPATH</filename> variable
+                    is not constructed until the layers are parsed.
+                    Consequently, using the configuration file as a
+                    pre-configuration file is not possible unless it is
+                    located in the current working directory.

+                    Minimally, each configuration file must define the

+                    for the build.
+                    Suggested practice dictates that you do not
+                    overlap the temporary directories used during the
+                    builds.

+                    Aside from separate configuration files for each
+                    target, you must also enable BitBake to perform multiple
+                    configuration builds.
+                    Enabling is accomplished by setting the
+                    <link linkend='var-BBMULTICONFIG'><filename>BBMULTICONFIG</filename></link>
+                    variable in the <filename>local.conf</filename>
+                    configuration file.
+                    As an example, suppose you had configuration files
+                    for <filename>target1</filename> and
+                    <filename>target2</filename> defined in the build
+                    directory.
+                    The following statement in the
+                    <filename>local.conf</filename> file both enables
+                    BitBake to perform multiple configuration builds and
+                    specifies the two multiconfigs:

+

+                    Sometimes dependencies can exist between targets
+                    (multiconfigs) in a multiple configuration build.
+                    For example, suppose that in order to build an image
+                    for a particular architecture, the root filesystem of
+                    another build for a different architecture needs to
+                    exist.
+                    In other words, the image for the first multiconfig depends
+                    on the root filesystem of the second multiconfig.
+                    This dependency is essentially that the task in the recipe
+                    that builds one multiconfig is dependent on the
+                    completion of the task in the recipe that builds
+                    another multiconfig.
+                </para>
+
+                <para>
+                    To enable dependencies in a multiple configuration
+                    build, you must declare the dependencies in the recipe
+                    using the following statement form:
+                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     <replaceable>task_or_package</replaceable>[mcdepends] = "multiconfig:<replaceable>from_multiconfig</replaceable>:<replaceable>to_multiconfig</replaceable>:<replaceable>recipe_name</replaceable>:<replaceable>task_on_which_to_depend</replaceable>"
+                    </literallayout>
+                    To better show how to use this statement, consider an
+                    example with two multiconfigs: <filename>target1</filename>
+                    and <filename>target2</filename>:
+                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     <replaceable>image_task</replaceable>[mcdepends] = "multiconfig:target1:target2:<replaceable>image2</replaceable>:<replaceable>rootfs_task</replaceable>"
+                    </literallayout>
+                    In this example, the
+                    <replaceable>from_multiconfig</replaceable> is "target1" and
+                    the <replaceable>to_multiconfig</replaceable> is "target2".
+                    The task on which the image whose recipe contains
+                    <replaceable>image_task</replaceable> depends on the
+                    completion of the <replaceable>rootfs_task</replaceable>
+                    used to build out <replaceable>image2</replaceable>, which
+                    is associated with the "target2" multiconfig.
+               </para>
+
+               <para>
+                   Once you set up this dependency, you can build the
+                   "target1" multiconfig using a BitBake command as follows:
+                   <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     $ bitbake multiconfig:target1:<replaceable>image1</replaceable>
+                   </literallayout>
+                   This command executes all the tasks needed to create
+                   <replaceable>image1</replaceable> for the "target1"
+                   multiconfig.
+                   Because of the dependency, BitBake also executes through
+                   the <replaceable>rootfs_task</replaceable> for the "target2"
+                   multiconfig build.
+               </para>
+
+               <para>
+                   Having a recipe depend on the root filesystem of another
+                   build might not seem that useful.
+                   Consider this change to the statement in the
+                   <replaceable>image1</replaceable> recipe:
+                   <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     <replaceable>image_task</replaceable>[mcdepends] = "multiconfig:target1:target2:<replaceable>image2</replaceable>:<replaceable>image_task</replaceable>"
+                   </literallayout>
+                   In this case, BitBake must create
+                   <replaceable>image2</replaceable> for the "target2"
+                   build since the "target1" build depends on it.
+               </para>
+
+               <para>
+                   Because "target1" and "target2" are enabled for multiple
+                   configuration builds and have separate configuration

+The layerindexlib module is designed to permit programs to work directly
+with layer index information.  (See layers.openembedded.org...)
+
+The layerindexlib module includes a plugin interface that is used to extend
+the basic functionality.  There are two primary plugins available: restapi
+and cooker.
+
+The restapi plugin works with a web based REST Api compatible with the
+layerindex-web project, as well as the ability to store and retried a
+the information for one or more files on the disk.
+
+The cooker plugin works by reading the information from the current build
+project and processing it as if it were a layer index.
+
+
+TODO:
+
+__init__.py:
+Implement local on-disk caching (using the rest api store/load)
+Implement layer index style query operations on a combined index
+
+common.py:
+Stop network access if BB_NO_NETWORK or allowed hosts is restricted
+
+cooker.py:
+Cooker - Implement recipe parsing

+This test data is used to verify the 'cooker' module of the layerindex.
+
+The module consists of a faux project bblayers.conf with four layers defined.
+
+layer1 - openembedded-core
+layer2 - networking-layer
+layer3 - meta-python
+layer4 - openembedded-layer (meta-oe)
+
+Since we do not have a fully populated cooker, we use this to test the
+basic index generation, and not any deep recipe based contents.
