Cult Meta

This is a metarepo for the Cult programming language.

Building

This project recently transitioned to using bazel.

Windows

1. Install and configure Bazel

• If on Windows some additional configuration:
  • BAZEL_SH needs to be configured to point at a bash. If one has git for windows installed anyways this can be found at C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\bash.exe.
  • BAZEL_VC needs to be configured to point at visual studio. For 2017 community this is at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC (Bazel should find this path automatically and report it as a warning if not set).

2. Open this folder in your command line of choice and run the build command (e.g. bazel build types:runtime_explorer) for the given sub project (exectuables are availble under bazel-bin, e.g. ./bazel-bin/types/runtime_explorer):

• types:runtime_explorer

Docker Build Image

1. build the container

docker build -t cultlang/buildbox .

2. Mount this directory into the buildbox Bash:

docker run -it -v $(pwd):/src cultlang/buildbox bash

Cmd:

docker run -it -v %cd%:/src cultlang/buildbox bash

3. Do your normal build stuffs

Dargons

Windows

Here's some things that can go wrong on Windows:

• Visual Studio currently (10/10/18) can't be installed to other drives besides C:
• Windows Defender in Active scan mode can be starved for threads when building in parallel, ruining build times
