Building LuxCoreRender - FAQ

Is it possible, in a develop & debug context, to set-up a local-only build chain, from dependencies to Blender?

Yes it is!

Step#1: Build dependencies locally: Use local plain build or local CI build of LuxCoreDeps

Step#2: Inject local dependencies in LuxCore build:

python -m build-system.luxmake.deps --local <path/to/deps>

Step#3: Build a wheel for test:

make wheel-test

(or Step#3bis: Build luxcoreui:

make luxcoreui

Step#4: Inject testing wheel in Blender: Use BlendLuxHelper
