Chuginate

Chuginate generates a C++ template and build files (makefile + Visual Studio project) for new ChuGins. Use this as a starting point for your new ChuGin!

Running Chuginate

Before running note the following things:

• Make sure Python 2 is installed. If you don't have Python 2 installed already one option is to use an environment manager such as conda and add a new environment:

conda create -n chugins python=2.7 # makes a new conda environment called chugins with python 2.7
conda activate chugins # switches to the environment

• If you are running on Windows you will need some sort of bash environment to run the makefile (WSL, git bash, cygwin, etc.)

To actaully generate your ChuGin template:

make clean
make
make install

Now, determine your destination_directory and make that directory (i.e. mkdir [destination_director]).

Next, run chuginate [chugin_name] [destination_directory] to create a new chugin from the template. If this doesn't work, try running the local chuginate script: python ./chuginate [chugin_name] [destination_directory]
