Fuse the .love into the official LÖVE 11.5 release artifacts: win-x64 (love.exe concat + dlls), mac-universal (love.app bundle, Info.plist patched) and linux-x64 (AppImage rebuilt via readelf offset + unsquashfs/mksquashfs — the AppImage runtime is glibc-linked and cannot run on the alpine builder). The builder image pre-fetches the dist files to /opt/love-dist and gains squashfs-tools + binutils. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# love-tools
|
|
|
|
CI/CD templates for [LÖVE](https://love2d.org) (Love2D/Lua) game
|
|
projects, in the same spirit as [tic80-tools](../tic80-tools).
|
|
|
|
- `example-makefile.make` — project Makefile: local dev targets
|
|
(`build`, `love`, `web`, `export`, `binaries`, `watch`, `clean`)
|
|
plus the Woodpecker pipeline targets (`ci-version`, `ci-export`,
|
|
`ci-binaries`, `ci-upload`, `ci-update`).
|
|
- `example-woodpecker.yaml` — Woodpecker pipeline: version → export
|
|
(`.love` package + love.js web build) → binaries (fused desktop
|
|
builds) → upload (scp to the droparea) → update (calls the
|
|
teletypegames `/update` endpoint with `platform=love`).
|
|
- `example-tasks.json` — VS Code `.vscode/tasks.json` with the common
|
|
dev tasks: **Run Löve** (`love .`, default build task,
|
|
`Cmd+Shift+B`), **Build & Run Löve**, **Build .love package** and
|
|
**Make build**.
|
|
|
|
## Usage in a game repo
|
|
|
|
1. Copy `example-makefile.make` to `Makefile` and set `PROJECT`
|
|
(the package is built as `dist/$(PROJECT).love`).
|
|
2. Copy `example-woodpecker.yaml` to `.woodpecker.yaml` and add the
|
|
`droparea_ssh_password` / `update_secret_key` secrets in Woodpecker.
|
|
3. Copy `example-tasks.json` to `.vscode/tasks.json`.
|
|
|
|
The pipeline uploads `$(PROJECT)-$(VERSION).love.zip`,
|
|
`$(PROJECT)-$(VERSION).html.zip`, the versioned `metadata.json` and
|
|
the fused binary zips (`-win-x64.zip`, `-mac-universal.zip`,
|
|
`-linux-x64.zip`) to the droparea, then triggers `/update` twice: once
|
|
with `platform=love` (desktop package) and once with
|
|
`platform=love-web` (web build). The API's `BinaryAttachment` concern
|
|
picks up the `<name>-<version>-<slug>.zip` files automatically and
|
|
registers them as `win_x64` / `mac_universal` / `linux_x64` release
|
|
assets.
|
|
|
|
## Native (fused) binaries
|
|
|
|
`make binaries VERSION=x.y` builds desktop packages from the official
|
|
LÖVE $(LOVE_VERSION) release artifacts — no compilation involved:
|
|
|
|
- **win-x64** — `love.exe` + the `.love` concatenated (the standard
|
|
LÖVE fusing mechanism), zipped together with the dlls.
|
|
- **mac-universal** — the `.love` dropped into the official
|
|
`love.app` (a universal x86_64+arm64 bundle), `Info.plist` patched
|
|
to the project name/identifier. Unsigned — Gatekeeper will warn on
|
|
first launch.
|
|
- **linux-x64** — the official AppImage taken apart, the `.love`
|
|
fused into `bin/love`, then reassembled. The AppImage runtime is
|
|
glibc-linked and cannot be executed on alpine, so the Makefile
|
|
computes the squashfs offset with `readelf` and repacks with
|
|
`mksquashfs` instead of running `--appimage-extract`.
|
|
|
|
## Builder image
|
|
|
|
`builder.Dockerfile` bakes the pipeline's export-step dependencies
|
|
(zip/unzip/curl/make + `luac` for the syntax check, squashfs-tools +
|
|
binutils for the AppImage fusing) into
|
|
`git.teletypegames.org/internal/love-builder`, and pre-fetches love.js to
|
|
`/opt/lovejs.zip` plus the official LÖVE dist files to
|
|
`/opt/love-dist/` — the Makefile uses the cached copies when present
|
|
and only falls back to downloading from GitHub outside the image:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
docker build --platform linux/amd64 -f builder.Dockerfile \
|
|
-t git.teletypegames.org/internal/love-builder:latest .
|
|
docker push git.teletypegames.org/internal/love-builder:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Rebuild the image to pick up a newer love.js snapshot or LÖVE
|
|
release (bump `LOVE_VERSION` in the Dockerfile and the Makefile
|
|
together).
|
|
|
|
Detailed documentation lives on the wiki: `/development/love`.
