For example `loot_api_python-94de368-win32.7z` was built using the revision with shortened commit ID `94de368`.
|
||||
|
||||
The build archives contain a `loot_api.pyd` and a `loot_api.dll`: see the usage section below on how to use them.
|
||||
## Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
The documentation can be found online at [Read The Docs](http://loot-api-python.readthedocs.org/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Build Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
The module's build system uses [CMake](https://cmake.org/) and requires [Python](https://www.python.org) (tested with 2.7). Make sure they're installed, then run CMake, and build the generated solution file.
|
||||
|
||||
Only Windows support has been tested, though Linux builds should also be possible.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the `loot_api.pyd` file that is built and the `loot_api.dll` file in the same directory to wherever you wish to import the module from, then:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
>>> import loot_api
|
||||
>>> loot_api.is_compatible(0,9,0)
|
||||
True
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The DLL requires the [Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable (x86)](https://download.microsoft.com/download/9/3/F/93FCF1E7-E6A4-478B-96E7-D4B285925B00/vc_redist.x86.exe) to be installed.
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** The module is currently built against revision [e40624c](https://github.com/loot/loot/tree/e40624cf7498f69b9393a02572a1eaf31065df44) of the API, which is post-0.9.2 and pre-0.10.0, but uses the v0.10 metadata syntax (as specified at that revision, in case there are further changes before the v0.10 release).
