Installation

Prerequisite:

  • CMake 3.9 (minimum)

  • VCPKG (optional)

  • Scripting (lua and python 3.6 minimum)

  • C++17 Compiler MSVC/Clang/GCC (mingw/cygwin/xcode are not supported)

If you want to install shiva you have two possibilities:

  • Using shiva as a submodule

  • Using vcpkg

Vcpkg:

Windows:

$ ./vcpkg.exe install shiva:x64-Windows

Windows (plugins):

$ ./vcpkg.exe install shiva-(plugins_name):x64-Windows

##! example
$ ./vcpkg.exe install shiva-sfml:x64-Windows

Currently on Windows, only the shared build is supported by shiva

Linux/OSX:

$ ./vcpkg install shiva

Linux/OSX (plugins):

$ ./vcpkg.exe install shiva-(plugins_name)

##! example
$ ./vcpkg.exe install shiva-sfml

On Linux and OSX some extra commands are needed to install lua modules and sfml.

Linux/OSX (extras):

##! Linux
sudo apt-get install luarocks
luarocks install luafilesystem
sudo apt-get install libsfml2.5-dev (or manually install sfml 2.5.0)

##! OSX
brew install luarocks
brew install sfml
luarocks install luafilesystem

To install vcpkg follow the instructions on the following github: https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg

Submodules:

git submodule add https://github.com/milerius/shiva
