Project description

Pybrood
=======

|docs|

Binding made as from-scratch code generator, outputting msvc project.

Precompiled installation
------------------------

Requirements:

- Windows 7 32 bit (just exactly SSCAIT requirement)
NOTE: I couldn't successfully run BWAPI injector under Wine,
although recently I've been told
`it's
possible <https://github.com/TorchCraft/TorchCraft/blob/master/docs/user/bwapi_on_linux.md>`__.
- `Python
3.5 <https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.5.2/python-3.5.2.exe>`__
- Installed BWAPI and SC

::

pip install pybrood

Documentation
-------------

`Read the docs <http://pybrood.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`__

Compiling from source
---------------------

Additional requirements:

- `Visual C++ build
tools <http://landinghub.visualstudio.com/visual-cpp-build-tools>`__
or complete Visual Studio.
NOTE: pick the version of compiler/studio considering `build tools
used by python <https://wiki.python.org/moin/WindowsCompilers>`__
- `BWAPI 4.1.2
sources <https://github.com/bwapi/bwapi/releases/tag/v4.1.2>`__
you need ``BWAPI.lib`` and ``BWAPIClient.lib`` built against chosen
compiler to link pybrood module
- Most fresh (dec 2016) `Pybind11
headers <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11>`__

Building BWAPI.lib and BWAPIClient.lib
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

| You may experience "access denied" errors while working directly in
"program files/BWAPI".
| Better use separately cloned git repo of BWAPI where you have full
access.

| For ``msbuild`` invocation use special VC++ related cmd shell from
Launch menu.
| Otherwise you can use usual cmd shell.

#. Make some changes in bwapi source files first:

- | little fix in ``bwapi/include/BWAPI/SetContainer.h:53``:
| at very end of class add

``SetContainer& operator=(const SetContainer&) = default;``

to get rid of "attempting to reference a deleted function" error.

- disable mass file copying in ``bwapi/BWAPILIB/BWAPILIB.vcxproj``:

- line 64: ``<PreLinkEvent>`` → ``<!-- PreLinkEvent>``

- line 94: ``</PreLinkEvent>`` → ``</PreLinkEvent -->``

- create file ``bwapi/svnrev.h``:

``static const int SVN_REV = 4708; #include "starcraftver.h"``

This prevents "Client and Server are not compatible" error.

#. Build BWAPI.lib:

``cd bwapi\BWAPILIB\ msbuild /p:PlatformToolset=v140 /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=Win32``

Output file is ``bwapi/lib/BWAPI.lib``.

#. Build BWAPIClient.lib:

``cd bwapi\BWAPIClient\ msbuild /p:PlatformToolset=v140 /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=Win32``

Output file is ``bwapi/lib/BWAPIClient.lib``.

Building Pybrood
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

#. ``pip install -r generator/requirements.txt``
#. Setup paths in `generator/config.py <generator/config.py>`__.
#. Run the generator ``python3.5 -m generator``.
#. ``cd`` to freshly generated ``output`` folder and run ``build.bat``
(it's just the same msbuild command).
#. Copy/symlink ``output/Release/inner.pyd`` into ``pybrood`` directory.
``inner.pyd`` is a required submodule of ``pybrood``.
#. Now you should be able to ``import pybrood``.
#. Optionally you can build your local copy of documentation:
``cd output/docs/ sphinx-build . -b html _build/html``
