Build instruction and installation

We try to make the build process for all supported platforms very simple, just use the build script to automate this process.

Repository cloning and submodules updates

git clone git@github.com:binarly-io/efiXplorer.git
cd efiXplorer
git submodule update --init --recursive

./build.py
Usage: build.py [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Options:
  --help  Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  build-loader
  build-plugin

Example of build process:

./build.py build-plugin "/path/to/idasdk"

cd efiXplorer
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DIdaSdk_ROOT_DIR="/path/to/idasdk"
cmake --build . --config Release

cd efiXloader
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DIdaSdk_ROOT_DIR="/path/to/idasdk"
cmake --build . --config Release

Copy compiled binaries of efiXplorer plugin and guids directory to <IDA_DIR>/plugins. Enjoy!

Copy builds/efiXloader64.dll to <IDA_DIR>/loaders.
