build universal macos and linux arm / arm64 binaries #63

Closed elcritch closed 10 months ago

elcritch commented 1 year ago

Adds a buildRelease task to config.nims for handling the cross xc builds. I tested both macos, linux, and windows builds to ensure they build the correct arch. I did not run them on all the platforms.

I updated binaries.yml in the CI, but it is untested. Very likely to have things to fix, but the general structure should now be correct.

What's the point? Nim ships with atlas and to get a new atlas use nimble install atlas. Which needs a packages.json registration.

To enable bootstrapping and replacing something like choosenim.

Nim doesn't provide pre-built binaries for ARM. I'm not sure this would be the best solution, but it'd be nice to have a solution.
