sokol-d 0.1.6

Auto-generated D bindings for the sokol headers.

Targets

• Native
• Wasm (-Dtarget=wasm32-emscripten-none)

By default, the backend 3D API will be selected based on the target platform:

• macOS: Metal
• Windows: D3D11
• Linux: GL

BUILD

Required

• zig v0.13.0 or master
• ldc v1.39.0 or latest-CI (nightly)

Supported platforms are: Windows, macOS, Linux (with X11)

On Linux install the following packages: libglu1-mesa-dev, mesa-common-dev, xorg-dev, libasound-dev (or generally: the dev packages required for X11, GL and ALSA development)

# build sokol library + all examples [default: static library]
zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseSafe

# build sokol shared library + all examples
zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseSafe -Dshared

Shaders

Checkout sokol-tools for a sokol shader pipeline! It supports these D bindings and all shaders in the examples folder here have been compiled using it with -f sokol_d!

zig build shaders # (re)generate D bindings from shaders.
