jvbuild

JSON V(5) build system. jvbuild is a language-agnostic package manager, build system, and distribution tool.

NOTE: I would consider jvbuild a beta software. Do not expect it to be stable or complete. However, it is developed enough that I use it or multiple projects.

Currently Supported Languages

  • Zig
  • Dart

Distribution Formats

  • Debian Package (.deb)
  • Fedora (.rpm) [Not Yet Implemented]
  • Windows (.msi) [Not Yet Implemented]

Example

See https://github.com/microslop-mirror/librepaint-3d for an example of a full project using jvbuild.

Docs

See docs.md for usage and documentation

Building

Before jvbuild can bootstrap itself, you must install its dependencies.

dart pub get

Next run jvbuild from source to build itself. jvbuild is selfhosted!

dart run src/jvbuild.dart build

Next use the compiled jvbuild binary to package itself for distribution

./jvbuild-out/jvbuild package

Congrats, you have used jvbuild to build and package itself!

Binary Releases

In the case that you're too lazy to build from source you can download the binaries from the jvbuild-out directory in this repo. The amd64 deb will always be up to date, but other targets may be outdated.
