Maybe a vagrant box will be less work for users. At the moment the Vagrantfile is just pointing to a remote url, but in the future it should contain the actual scripts to construct the box so that the box can be updated as the dependencies in the repository change.

Vagrant
The simplest way to get pokecrystal to compile is to use Vagrant and VirtualBox. Follow these steps:
-
Follow the instructions to download and install VirtualBox
-
Run these commands:
vagrant box add pokecrystal http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/irc/pokecrystal/pokecrystal.box mkdir vagrantbox cd vagrantbox vagrant init pokecrystal vagrant up vagrant ssh -c "cd /vagrant && git clone git://github.com/kanzure/pokecrystal.git" vagrant ssh -c "cd /vagrant/pokecrystal && git submodule init && git submodule update" vagrant ssh
Running "vagrant ssh" will give you a shell to type commands into for compiling the source code. The the "virtualbox" directory on the host appears as a shared folder inside of the guest virtual machine at "/vagrant".
To build the project, run these commands in the guest (that is, inside "vagrant ssh"):
cd /vagrant/pokecrystal
make
To make the build work you will need to copy baserom.gbc into the "pokecrystal" directory inside the "virtualbox" directory on the host machine. Eventually this will not be required.
Linux
Dependencies:
sudo apt-get install make gcc bison git python python-setuptools
sudo easy_install pip
The assembler used is rgbds.
git clone git://github.com/bentley/rgbds.git
cd rgbds
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/man/man{1,7}
sudo make install
cd ..
Set up the repository.
git clone git://github.com/kanzure/pokecrystal.git
cd pokecrystal
git submodule init
git submodule update
sudo pip install -r extras/requirements.txt
- Copy your Pokémon Crystal rom to the directory. Name it baserom.gbc.
To build pokecrystal.gbc:
make
This should take about 30 seconds. Subsequent builds are much faster (2-10 seconds).
OS X
Download and install Command Line Tools for Xcode. Then follow the Linux instructions.
If you have Xcode already, you can get Command Line Tools with:
xcode-select --install
Windows
It's recommended that you use a virtual machine running Linux or OS X.
If you insist on Windows, use Cygwin (32-bit).
Dependencies are downloaded in the installer rather than the command line. Select the following packages:
- make
- git
- python
- python-setuptools
- gcc
- libsasl2
- ca-certificates
To install rgbds, extract the contents of
http://iimarck.us/etc/rgbds.zip
and put them in C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin.
Then set up the repository. In the Cygwin terminal:
git clone git://github.com/kanzure/pokecrystal.git
cd pokecrystal
git submodule init
git submodule update
easy_install pip
pip install -r extras/requirements.txt
- Copy your Pokémon Crystal rom to the directory. Name it baserom.gbc.
To build:
make
