Feedback, issues and pull requests are always welcome, please see the Github issues page.

Getting the code

git clone git://github.com/enginetrouble/gyp-getting-started.git

Requirements

  • Python 2.7+ (:warning: GYP does not support Python 3, at the moment)
  • Xcode 5 and 6
  • Visual Studio 2013

How to build

Prerequisite: Installing GYP

First, install GYP from https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/gyp.
Make sure git is installed. From the root of your engine directory (cd gyp-getting-started), run:

git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/gyp.git tools/gyp

Second, run setup.py:

Linux and Mac OSX

To install globally with gyp:

cd tools/gyp
[sudo] python setup.py install

Windows

cd tools/gyp
python setup.py install

Building under Xcode (Apple LLVM Clang++)

1. Generate project

gyp build/trivial.gyp --depth=. -f xcode --generator-output=build.xcodefiles

2. Build (Debug/Release)

xcodebuild -project build.xcodefiles/build/trivial.xcodeproj

To build in release mode, use -configuration option:

xcodebuild -project build.xcodefiles/build/trivial.xcodeproj -configuration Release

3. Running test

build/build/Release/TrivialTest

Building under MSBuild

1. Generate project files

To generate visual studio project files in Windows default command prompt, run gyp\gyp (same as gyp\gyp.bat):

tools\gyp\gyp build/trivial.gyp --depth=. -f msvs -G msvs_version=2013

If you use Git Bash (MinGW) or Cygwin, an alternative method is gyp/gyp (shell script, not .bat file):

tools/gyp/gyp build/trivial.gyp --depth=. -f msvs -G msvs_version=2013

You can also use the python gyp_main.py instead of gyp command:

python tools/gyp/gyp_main.py build/trivial.gyp --depth=. -f msvs -G msvs_version=2013

An Visual Studio solution file (build/trivial.sln) has been created in your directory.

2. Build using MSBuild

If you use the Visual Studio 2013, run the following in a command prompt:

set Path=C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\12.0\Bin\;%PATH%

To compile and create an executable file, run the following command:

MSBuild build\trivial.sln /t:Build

Using /p:Configuration you can specify the build configuration:

MSBuild build\trivial.sln /t:Build /p:Configuration=Release

3. Running test

build\Debug\TrivialTest

Notes

If you get the following error, Python can't find setuptools module.

$ python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 7, in <module>
    from setuptools import setup
ImportError: No module named setuptools

You can install python modules and try again:

wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py -O - | python
python setup.py install
