MoaiCLI

About

This is a tool to allow you to work with and compile projects using the Moai SDK.

c:\dev> moaicli new testproject
c:\dev\testproject> moaicli build android
  ---(downloads the ndk, sdk, jdk, cmake etc, checks out moai from github)---
c:\dev\testproject> moaicli start android
  ---(runs compiled hello world app on attached android device)---

This tool aims to save you from having to install your own c++ compiler, cmake, or even the android sdk. It will install and run all of these for you, leaving you to focus on your game not your tools.

Requirements

• Windows, OSX, Linux
• Ability to execute java code
• Network connection with plenty of quota (android sdk+ndk is very large)

Install

Unzip the package to a location and add the folder containing the moaicli script to your path.

Basic usage

c:\dev> moaicli new testproject
c:\dev\testproject> moaicli build android
c:\dev\testproject> moaicli start android
