[Build Tool] AMXXPack
 

📄 About
This system will be useful for projects with multiple plugins and assets. Using the command-line interface you can build entire project with a single command. It also supports hot rebuild to keep your plugins and assets up to date during the work.

It's similar to Halloween Mod and Zombie Panic build systems, but it's now a single npm package that doesn't require gulp.

📚 Features

• ⚙ Flexible configuration
• 🔥 Hot reload
• 🧸 Assets builder

🔄 Requirements

• Node.js 10.0.0+

Very interesting.
Although the explaination was a bit vague, I download amxxpack package through npm and the process went smoothly until I had to exec npm run build. It lead to this error log

Re: 📦 [Build Tool] AMXXPack
 

Is there a purpose to this other than simply compiling multiple plugins in a single project? Can it be used in CI? Also, if it can be used in CI and you develop locally on Windows but do CI on Linux, does this handle that transition? It looks like this might require editing a config. I presume you could detect the OS and resolve that (unless it's already built in).

Re: 📦 [Build Tool] AMXXPack
 

bigdaddy424,
It looks like you didn't add a build script to your project. Use:
or add a build script like in the last quickstart step.

fysiks,
Yep, it can be used for CI, Zombie Panic is already using it: https://github.com/Hedgefog/cs-zombie-panic
It also supports javascript configs.

build script
.amxxpac.js

Update

• Added fetch-compiler command to fetch compiler

Installing compiler for Amx Mod X 1.9.0 with Counter-Strike addon:

Re: 📦 [Build Tool] AMXXPack
 

Version 1.0.0 released!
⚠ Version 1.0.0 has a different configuration file structure, so please remove and reinitialize your projects.

AMXXPack has now supported compiler and third-party configuration to fetch it with the install command.

You can also use "amxxpack new" command to create a new file in the project:
Use command "npm update amxxpack" to update AMXXPack.
Use command "npx amxxpack config" to recreate configuration file.

Example configuration file for project with Amx Mod X 1.9 and Reapi:

Re: 📦 [Build Tool] AMXXPack
 

So, this program will allow me to collect multiple .sma files, and then compile them into one single. amxx file, correct?

This program can turn 20, for example, .sma files into one single .amxx file.

Did i understand it correctly?

Re: 📦 [Build Tool] AMXXPack
 

GlobalPlague,
Hi, this program is actually CLI and provides commands to work with the project. It will not compile all .sma files into single .amxx, but it will provide you the functionality to build all files and copy it to a specific folder using a single command. You are also able to use "watch" mode and AMXPack will watch script changes and automatically recompile changed plugins.
Project initialization will create the basic project structure and install the compiler to the project workspace, so you don't need to do it manually and set up anything. Just one command and you are ready to go!

Re: 📦 [Build Tool] AMXXPack
 

If that was possible, it wouldn't make any sense to do.
