glslang.zig

This is a fork of KhronosGroup/glslang packaged for Zig

Why this fork ?

The intention under this fork is to package KhronosGroup/glslang for Zig. So:

• Unnecessary files have been deleted,
• The build system has been replaced with build.zig,
• A cron runs every day to check KhronosGroup/glslang and other dependencies. Then it updates this repository if a new release is available.

How to use it

The goal of this repository is not to provide a Zig binding for KhronosGroup/glslang. The point of this repository is to abstract the KhronosGroup/glslang compilation process with Zig (which is not easy to maintain) to let you focus on your application. So you can use glslang.zig:

• as raw (no available example, open an issue if you are interested in, we will be happy to help you),
• as a daily updated interface for your Zig binding of KhronosGroup/glslang (again: no available example).

Dependencies

The Zig part of this package is relying on the latest Zig release (0.15.2) and will only be updated for the next one. It you use a more recent Zig version, please consider the zig-nightly branch and *-nightly tags.

For other dependencies see the build.zig.zon

zig build options

These additional options have mainly been implemented for maintainability tasks but they maybe could be useful for edge usecases:

  -Dfetch   Update build.zig.zon then stop execution
  -Dupdate  Update binding
