🔨 Building from source

🏡 Building locally

Prerequisites (versions are recommendations):

clang and clang++ 6.0.1 or gcc and g++ 7.2
CMake 3.5.1+ and (preferably) Ninja
LLVM 7
Python 3.5.2+ for testing

Steps:

Clone Emojicode (or download the source code and extract it) and navigate into it:
```
git clone https://github.com/emojicode/emojicode
cd emojicode
```
Create a build directory and run CMake in it:
```
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -GNinja
```
You can of course also run CMake in another directory or use another build system than Ninja. Refer to the CMake documentation for more information.
Build the Compiler and Real-Time Engine:
```
ninja
```
You can now test Emojicode:
```
ninja tests
```
The binaries are ready for use! You can the perform a magic installation right away
```
ninja magicinstall
```
or just package the binaries and headers properly
```
ninja dist
```
To create a distribution archive you must call the dist script yourself (e.g. python3 ../dist.py .. archive).

🐋 Building using Docker

A Dockerfile is available for building in a Ubuntu 18.04 environment.

Steps:

Clone Emojicode (or download the source code and extract it) and navigate into it:
```
git clone https://github.com/emojicode/emojicode
cd emojicode
```

Build Docker image:

docker build -t emojicode-build:latest .

Verify the installation was fine:

...
✅  Emojicode was successfully installed.

Start image (and mount a directory to it):

docker run -v $(pwd)/code:/workspace -it emojicode-build:latest

Start coding !

emojicodec /workspace/hello.🍇 && . /workspace/hello
