A cross-platform framework with a focus on niche platforms.

Very pre-alpha. Do not use for any serious projects yet, as the API is heavily subject to change.

• CMake
• Python
• A valid C++20 compiler

TeaPacket uses a custom python script to automatically handle external tools. Do not worry about downloading any other tools. Any items listed under "External Tools" in platform READMEs do not need to be downloaded.

• Windows

To build, run cmake with TP_PLATFORM_DIR set to a directory or platform. For official platforms, simply set the platform name (eg. Windows). For external platforms, it must be set to the directory of the platform.

TeaPacket uses a special asset registry. To ensure all files are set up correctly, set TP_ASSET_DIR to a folder with all of your assets.

Documentation is available here.

Making a platform is simple. You must have:

• A CMakeLists.txt that properly calls target_sources and target_include_directories
• A folder named prebuild with two folders inside: asset_parse and external_tools
  • asset_parse may contain python scripts which implement the parse_and_copy function. These parse assets specific to your platform. They must be in the format _EXTENSION_.py
  • external_tools may contain python scripts to download, compile, and save external tools needed by the build process.
• Proper implementations for all functions that begin with Pl_
  • Note: For functions that are not implemented yet, use the TeaPacket::Error::FunctionNotImplemented exception.
• Proper definitions for all Platform___ classes needed by the framework.

It is recommended to check out the Windows official platform for reference.
