#+TITLE: Hacking gib-gab-gob

By far the easiest way to hack on gib-gab-gob is to develop using Guix:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
|
|
# Obtain the source code
|
|
cd /path/to/source-code
|
|
guix environment -l guix.scm
|
|
# In the new shell, run:
|
|
hall dist --execute && autoreconf -vif && ./configure && make check
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
You can now hack this project's files to your heart's content, whilst
|
|
testing them from your `guix environment' shell.
|
|
|
|
To try out any scripts in the project you can now use
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
|
|
./pre-inst-env scripts/${script-name}
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to tidy the project again, but retain the ability to test the
|
|
project from the commandline, simply run:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
|
|
./hall clean --skip "scripts/${script-name},pre-inst-env" --execute
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
** Manual Installation
|
|
|
|
If you do not yet use Guix, you will have to install this project's
|
|
dependencies manually:
|
|
- autoconf
|
|
- automake
|
|
- pkg-config
|
|
- texinfo
|
|
- guile-hall
|
|
|
|
Once those dependencies are installed you can run:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
|
|
hall dist -x && autoreconf -vif && ./configure && make check
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
