Compiler

To compile a conforming SCCDXML file, the provided Python compiler can be used. The compiler can compile conforming SCCD models to two languages: Python and Javascript. Three platforms are supported, for more information see Runtime Platforms.

The compiler can be used from the command line as follows:

$python -m sccd.compiler.sccdc --help
usage: python -m sccd.compiler.sccdc [-h] [-o OUTPUT] [-v VERBOSE]
                                     [-p PLATFORM] [-l LANGUAGE]
                                     input

positional arguments:
  input                 The path to the XML file to be compiled.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                        The path to the generated code. Defaults to the same
                        name as the input file but with matching extension.
  -v VERBOSE, --verbose VERBOSE
                        2 = all output; 1 = only warnings and errors; 0 = only
                        errors; -1 = no output. Defaults to 2.
  -p PLATFORM, --platform PLATFORM
                        Let the compiled code run on top of threads, gameloop
                        or eventloop. The default is eventloop.
  -l LANGUAGE, --language LANGUAGE
                        Target language, either "javascript" or "python".
                        Defaults to the latter.
