Building Ace

Jonathan edited this page Apr 28, 2016 · 1 revision

You do not generally have to build Ace. The ace-builds repository usually contains the latest build and you can just copy one of the src* subdirectories somewhere into your project.

To build Ace you only need Node.js

just run npm install in the ace folder to install the dependencies

and then node Makefile.dryice.js

build script accepts the following options:

-m                 minify build files with uglify-js          
-nc                namespace require and define calls with "ace"
--target ./path    specify relative path for output folder (default value is "./build")

to build bookmarklet version run node Makefile.dryice.js bm

and to generate all the files in ace-builds repository run node Makefile.dryice.js full --target ../ace-builds
