Auto-compile linenoise on build #63

Closed wilzbach closed 6 years ago

wilzbach commented 7 years ago

Quite a simple idea to use the preBuildCommands hooks, but this should work on most Posix platforms as gcc is pretty universal. Of course, this isn't perfect and won't work on Windows.

uses git subtree as DUB doesn't fetch git submodules on dub fetch
Ideally DUB should provide such abstractions / build layers (e.g. https://github.com/dlang/dub/issues/852, https://github.com/dlang/dub/wiki/DEP5)

Sorry for the commit noise, but there were some issues with the way I checked in the module with git subtree - it is resolved now & I also removed the linenoise installation from Travis to test that the following will work for any Posix system:

dub fetch drepl && dub run drepl

(and maybe just run soon).

CC @MartinNowak @ZombineDev - what's your opinion on this?

OK moved to https://github.com/D-Programming-Deimos/linenoise/pull/5 With that, only a simple git tag should be needed :)
