GENie (pronounced as Jenny) is project generator tool. It automagically generates project from Lua script, making applying the same settings for multiple projects easy.

Supported project generators:

  • GNU Makefile
  • JSON Compilation Database
  • Ninja (experimental)
  • Qbs / QtCreator (experimental)
  • Visual Studio 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019

Scripting Reference
Introduction to GENie - CppCon 2016

History

Initial version of GENie is fork of Premake 4.4 beta 5, and there is no intention to keep it compatible with it.

Changelog (since fork)

  • Added vs2013 support.
  • Added hash UUID support. os.uuid(<string>) should produce consistent UUID.
  • Added search for default script. Default script name is changed to genie.lua (solution.lua and premake4.lua are also allowed), and it can be located in scripts directory.
  • Updated Lua from 5.1.4 to 5.3.0.
  • Disabled SmallerTypeCheck VS option when ExtraWarnings is set (need to move it into separate option).
  • New versioning scheme based on revision number from git.
  • Added startproject "<project name>" to set default project in VS.
  • Removed NoMinimalRebuild and added reversed logic to EnableMinimalRebuild.
  • Added NoMultiProcessorCompilation flag to disable multiprocessor compilation in MSVC.
  • Added ability to configure Visual Studio toolset from GENie script.
  • Added UnsignedChar flag to force char to be unsigned.
  • Removed vs2002, vs2003, vs2005, Solaris, and Haiku support.
  • Allow source files in the same project to have the same name. Added SingleOutputDir flag to use single output directory (original behaviour).
  • Added WinRT support (Windows Phone 8.1, Windows Store, Universal Apps).
  • Added removeflags, removelinks.
  • Added vs2015 support.
  • Added targetsubdir.

  • Added options section (and ForceCpp to enforce C++ compile even if extension is for C files)
  • Added msgcompile, msgresource, msglinking and msgarchiving as overrides for make messages.
  • Added messageskip list to disable some of compiler messages.
  • Added buildoptions_c, buildoptions_cpp, buildoptions_objc, buildoptions_objcpp, buildoptions_asm, buildoptions_swift for configuring language specific build options.

build - GENie build system scripts

build is a set of build system scripts and related tools, built around GENie project generator tool.

Debugging GENie scripts

It is possible to debug build scripts using ZeroBrane Studio. You must compile GENie in debug mode

$ make config=debug

This ensures the core lua scripts are loaded from disk rather than compiled into the GENie binary. Create a file named debug.lua as a sibling to your main genie.lua script with the following content:

local zb_path = <path to ZeroBraneStudio>
local cpaths = {
    string.format("%s/bin/lib?.dylib;%s/bin/clibs53/?.dylib;", zb_path, zb_path),
    package.cpath,
}
package.cpath = table.concat(cpaths, ';')

local paths = {
    string.format('%s/lualibs/?.lua;%s/lualibs/?/?.lua', zb_path, zb_path),
    string.format('%s/lualibs/?/init.lua;%s/lualibs/?/?/?.lua', zb_path, zb_path),
    string.format('%s/lualibs/?/?/init.lua', zb),
    package.path,
}
package.path = table.concat(paths, ';')

require('mobdebug').start()

NOTE: update zb_path to refer to the root of your ZeroBrane Studio install. For reference, you should find lualibs in you zb_path folder

To debug, make sure ZBS is listening for debug connections and add dofile("debug.lua") to genie.lua
