NAME
Alien::premake5 - Build or find premake5
SYNOPSIS
use Alien::premake5;
use Env qw( @PATH );
unshift @ENV, Alien::premake5->bin_dir;
my $premake = Alien::premake5->exe;
system $premake, 'gmake';
DESCRIPTION
Premake is a build tool that allows a software project to be described with a single common build script, which can then be used to generate project files for building under a wide variety of build environments.
Alien::premake5 uses Alien::Build to make it easier to use premake in a Perl application or project.
This distribution will find an available version of premake5
, or attempt to build one from source.
METHODS
- exe
-
my $premake = Alien::premake5->exe;
Returns the name of the premake executable. Currently, this should be
premake5
.When using the executable compiled by this distribution, you will need to make sure that the directories returned by
bin_dir
are added to yourPATH
environment variable. For more info, check the documentation of Alien::Build.
HELPERS
- premake5
-
The
%{premake5}
string will be interpolated by Alien::Build into the name of the premake5 executable (as returned by exe);

CONTRIBUTIONS AND BUG REPORTS
Contributions of any kind are most welcome!
The main repository for this distribution is on Github, which is where patches and bug reports are mainly tracked. Bug reports can also be sent through the CPAN RT system, or by mail directly to the developers at the addresses below, although these will not be as closely tracked.
Development uses Dist::Zilla, and is tracked in the master
branch of the code repository. Code contributions can be made directly on that branch (which will likely require you to use Dist::Zilla), or on the build
branch of the, which holds the built code and has no need for development tools.
