Lua static battery

This is a script to build a static version of lua, using gcc and the musl C library. The toolchain are downloaded from musl.cc. Some usefull libraries are included too.

See the Release Readme for details on how to use the application or which libraries are included.

The script can build linux, windows and mac binaries. Linux binaries are built for both x86 (natively) and arm with hard float (through cross-compile). Windows binaries are built through cross-compile from linux. The mac binaries are built with a default LLVM toolchain, without musl.

In Release page you can fine the output binaries for all the supporterd platforms.

Usage

The build script can be run with

./build.sh

It expects alpine linux and that all the sources the are in specific subfolder build. However, some workaraound are in place for other environment.

It will produce in the build/deploy subfolder a set of packages for different platform containing the application lua_static_batter.exe with some documentation.

Get the sources

An utility script is provided to download the build script as well a all the needed dependencies in a build folder:

./pack.sh update

You can use it also to download lua_static_battery too:

./build/pack/build.sh

To change the download/build directory, you can set the UPDATER_TARGET environment variable.

Build environment

If you are on another linux distribution, you can use runalp.sh script, that will download an Alpine linux image and run it in a container. The syntax is:

./runalp.sh ./pack.sh update
./runalp.sh ./build.sh

Build options

To select the target architecture you can set the TARGET environment variable to linux, arm_linux, windows or mac.
