[DESCRIPTION]
.B vapigen
is a utility which generates Vala API (VAPI) files from GI files,
which may be generated using the vala-gen-introspect(1) utility.

[EXAMPLES]
After compilation, the following command generates a GI for pango:
.B vala-gen-introspect pango packages/pango
.TP
This can then be converted to a Vala API as follows:
.B vapigen --pkg cairo --vapidir . --library pango packages/pango/pango.gi
