Building LuxCore Dependencies

Principles

LuxCore dependencies are built by LuxCoreDeps.

The process is:

• LuxCoreDeps populates a Conan cache by building each of the required dependencies from its sources.
• This cache is published in LuxCoreDeps releases.
• On LuxCore side, during the build, the cache is retrieved from the release and made available (restored) for LuxCore build.

Central build

LuxCoreDeps is intended to be run by Github CI/CD pipeline.

You will find all workflows in repository actions.:

• LuxCore Dependency Builder: build dependencies, triggered on-demand
• LuxCore Dependency Checker: test dependency build, triggered by push (call Builder)
• LuxCore Dependency Releaser: publish release of dependencies

In a typical workflow: Testing: Releasing
