Getting started
Every project must contain a Build Instruction file, Named Candiefile and this file should always be placed in the project root directory.
project/
├── main.c
├── greet.c
└── Candiefile
So create this file for your project.
The Candiefile file can contain sections of code.
A Section can be created like this [SECTION_NAME] using square brackets, section name must be UPPERCASE. [SETUP] is a required section.
Example Candiefile 👇️
[SETUP]
PROJ_NAME = 'your_project_name'
project(
name = PROJ_NAME,
language = C,
)
[BUILD]
executable(
PROJ_NAME,
'./main.c',
'./greet.c'
).create()
You can either provide the source file paths manually or use the grab_sources() function
and provide the directory path of the src files.
Call the create() method to create the executable, You can provide .create(debug = True) to add debugging symbols to the executable.
finally, run this command to execute the build section.
candie build
This will create a executable named 'your_project_name'
Here, Example project simple-exe
