mittere

Build tools for ComputerCraft based off npm and yarn.

Creating a project

Download or build mittere, and run the following command:

mittere init

It will walk you through setting up your project, similar to setting up a npm project.
Once completed, files will be created for your project. All build files for your project should fall into the created sources directory. If you are making a program, you can use mittere watch to run your program and restart it when changes occur.

Building mittere

Building mittere is the same as building a mittere project. When building, ALWAYS BACK UP THE OLD MITTERE EXECUTABLE! Not doing so can cause huge headaches in building again. When built, the executable will be outputted to mittere.lua. This can be modified in mittere.package.lua if necessary.

mittereMeta.lua

A project can require("mittereMeta") to get the package information the project was built with. This can be used for version checking and other uses.

Package spec

Below is a spec outlining the mittere.package.lua file.
