ImpellerPy

Python Bindings to Impeller. Flutters rendering engine.

Prerequisites

• A C11 and C++20 compiler.
• CMake (3.22 or above).
• Git.
• Ninja.
• vcpkg for package management.
  • Ensure that the VCPKG_ROOT environment variable is present and valid.
• vcpkg compiles cpython3. To do that successfully on macOS, you need to invoke the following:
  • On macOS:

    brew install autoconf automake autoconf-archive

  • On Linux:

    sudo apt-get install -y autoconf automake autoconf-archive

  • Look in the failure log for details on dependencies on other platforms.

Building

Important

Make sure you have completed all pre-requisites. The first time you build, vcpkg will attempt to pull and build all dependencies. This will take a while. But the results will be cached.

This project uses the CMake build system but use Make for tasks. Using Make is optional but makes things easier.

• Fetch all submodules.

  make sync

• Build the default CMake preset.

  make
