This is a fork of hexops/glfw which is itself a fork of glfw/glfw.
The intention under this fork is the same as hexops had when they forked glfw/glfw: package it for Zig. So:
- Unnecessary files have been deleted,
- The build system has been replaced with
build.zig.
However this repository has subtle differences for maintainability tasks:
- No shell scripting,
- A cron runs every day to check glfw/glfw. Then it updates this repository if a new release is available,
- No support for macOS.
The goal of this repository is not to provide a Zig binding for glfw/glfw. There are at least as many legit ways as possible to make a binding as there are active accounts on Github. So you are not going to find an answer for this question here. The point of this repository is to abstract the glfw/glfw compilation process with Zig (which is not new comers friendly and not easy to maintain) to let you focus on your application. So you can use glfw.zig:
- as raw (see GLFW examples here),
- as a daily updated interface for your Zig binding of glfw/glfw (see here for a private usage).
The current usage of this repository is centered around tiawl/cimgui.zig compilation. So for your usage it could break because some files have been filtered in the process. If it happens, open an issue: this repository is open to potential usage evolution.
The Zig part of this package is relying on the latest Zig release (0.13.0) and will only be updated for the next one (so for the 0.14.0).
Here the repositories' version used by this fork:
These repositories are automatically updated when a new release is available:
This repository is automatically updated when a new release is available from these repositories:
- glfw/glfw
- tiawl/toolbox
- tiawl/vulkan.zig
- tiawl/wayland.zig
- tiawl/X11.zig
- tiawl/spaceporn-action-bot
- tiawl/spaceporn-action-ci
- tiawl/spaceporn-action-cd-ping
- tiawl/spaceporn-action-cd-pong
These additional options have been implemented for maintainability tasks:
-Dfetch Update .references folder and build.zig.zon then stop execution
-Dupdate Update binding
