You can use either GCC or Clang to build Jsonnet. Note that on recent versions
of macOS, /usr/bin/gcc and /usr/bin/g++ are actually Clang, so there is no
difference.
To build Jsonnet with GCC, run:
make
To build Jsonnet with Clang, run:
make CC=clang CXX=clang++
To run the output binary, run:
./jsonnet
Bazel builds are also supported. Install Bazel if it is not installed already. Then, run the following command to build with GCC:
bazel build -c opt //cmd:jsonnet
To build with Clang, use one of these two options:
env CC=clang CXX=clang++ bazel build -c opt //cmd:jsonnet
# OR
bazel build -c opt --action_env=CC=clang --action_env=CXX=clang++ //cmd:jsonnet
This builds the jsonnet target defined in cmd/BUILD. To
launch the output binary, run:
bazel-bin/cmd/jsonnet
