TIC-80's export win/linux/mac produces self-contained players with the cart baked in; the templates are downloaded from tic80.com at export time. The zips follow the <name>-<version>-<slug>.zip droparea convention so the API registers them as release assets automatically. Also switch the tic80pro image reference to the canonical registry host.

|
CI/CD templates for [TIC-80](https://tic80.com) (Lua) game projects.
|
|
|
|
- `example-makefile.make` — project Makefile: local dev targets
|
|
(`build`, `minify`, `binaries`, `watch`, `lint`, `docs`,
|
|
`import_assets`, `export_assets`, `clean`, `install_precommit_hook`)
|
|
plus the Woodpecker pipeline targets (`ci-version`, `ci-lint`,
|
|
`ci-minify`, `ci-docs`, `ci-export`, `ci-binaries`, `ci-artifact`,
|
|
`ci-update`).
|
|
- `example-woodpecker.yaml` — Woodpecker pipeline: version → lint →
|
|
minify → docs → export (TIC-80 Pro image) → binaries (native
|
|
players, same image) → artifact (scp to the droparea) → update
|
|
(calls the teletypegames `/update` endpoint with `platform=tic80`).
|
|
- `example-tasks.json` — VS Code `.vscode/tasks.json` with the common
|
|
dev tasks: **Run TIC80** (default build task, `Cmd+Shift+B`),
|
|
**Build & Run TIC80**, **Export assets** and **Make build**.
|
|
|
|
## Usage in a game repo
|
|
|
|
1. Copy `example-makefile.make` to `Makefile` and set `PROJECT`
|
|
(the cartridge is built as `$(PROJECT).lua` from the file list in
|
|
`$(PROJECT).inc`).
|
|
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` and replace the
|
|
cart name (`impostor.lua`) with `$(PROJECT).lua`.
|
|
|
|
The pipeline uploads `$(PROJECT)-$(VERSION).lua`, `.tic`, `.html.zip`,
|
|
`-docs.zip` and the native player zips (`-win-x64.zip`,
|
|
`-linux-x64.zip`, `-mac-x64.zip`) to the droparea, then triggers
|
|
`/update?platform=tic80&name=$(PROJECT)&version=$(VERSION)`. The API's
|
|
`BinaryAttachment` concern picks up the `<name>-<version>-<slug>.zip`
|
|
files automatically and registers them as `win_x64` / `linux_x64` /
|
|
`mac_x64` release assets.
|
|
|
|
## Native binaries
|
|
|
|
`make binaries VERSION=x.y` runs TIC-80's `export win / linux / mac`,
|
|
which produces self-contained players with the cart baked in. Two
|
|
things to know:
|
|
|
|
- The player templates are **downloaded from tic80.com at export
|
|
time**, so the CI step needs network access (the Woodpecker steps
|
|
have it — the same way the artifact step reaches the droparea).
|
|
- All upstream players are x86-64 — the mac binary is Intel-only
|
|
(runs via Rosetta on Apple Silicon), hence the `mac-x64` slug.
|
|
|
|
Each binary is zipped with a single `$(PROJECT)-$(VERSION)-<slug>/`
|
|
root folder; the zip is created on unix so the executable bit
|
|
survives.
|
|
|
|
Detailed documentation lives on the wiki: `/development/tic80`.
