Vagrant

1. Make sure Vagrant and VirtualBox are installed.
2. Checkout the project.
3. In its root folder create a Vagrantfile with these contents:

require_relative 'src/code-gen.rb'

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|

  config.vm.box = "raring32"
  config.vm.box_url = "http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/vagrant/raring/current/raring-server-cloudimg-i386-vagrant-disk1.box"

  config.vm.provision :shell, :inline => "
    echo 'golang-go golang-go/dashboard boolean true' > preseed.conf
    sudo debconf-set-selections preseed.conf
  "

  apts = CodeGen::List.reverse.flat_map {|c| c.steps.map {|step| step.apt } }
  config.vm.provision :shell, :inline => "sudo apt-get install -y #{ (apts + ["tcc"]).compact.uniq.sort.join " " }"

end

1. Run vagrant up and the Ubuntu machine will be automatically built for you (~ 1GB download).
2. Follow the instructions to build the project
3. Enjoy!

Troubleshooting

Long "Waiting for VM to boot"?
-> forcefully power off the VM in the VirtualBox GUI and run "vagrant up" again.

Google Cloud VM

A Google Cloud VM with these settings was able to work:

• e2-standard-16
• 100 gb disk
• Ubuntu 22.10

You could probably get by with 20 gb disk. You could probably get by with a smaller e2 machine. I ran sudo apt update and then ran through the 1. Install all interpreters/compilers. steps in the README, then make, and it worked!
