Use raylib with Sublime Text - raysan5/raylib GitHub Wiki

Sublime Text 3, fast and simple code editor.

Note: The following how-to is mostly for Windows. If you know a way to do it on Mac and/or Linux, feel free to edit this wiki and add it.

Install the latest release of Raylib from the releases page. If you're on Windows installing Raylib with MingW (GCC) or TCC included will make it easier.

Depending on how easy you want to make it for yourself, create a file called build.bat in the root of your current project (recommended) or in %AppData%\Sublime Text 3\Packages\User

Make the build.bat script look something like this:

@echo off
cls

:: ***********************************************************************
   rem Batch file for compiling Raylib and/or Raygui applications
:: ***********************************************************************

:Initialization
	echo ^> Initializing Variables
	echo ----------------------------
	SET "RAYLIB_DIR=C:\raylib"
	SET "CURRENT_DIR=%cd%"

	SET "INPUT_FILE=%1"
	SET "OUTPUT_FILE=%2"
	SET "INCLUDE_FILES="

	SET "COMPILER=%RAYLIB_DIR%\tcc\tcc.exe"
	SET "CFLAGS=%RAYLIB_DIR%\raylib\src\raylib.rc.data -std=c99 -Wall"
	SET "LDFLAGS=-lmsvcrt -lraylib -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -lwinmm -lkernel32 -lshell32 -luser32 -Wl,-subsystem=gui"
	SET "EXTRAFLAGS="

	IF /I "%3"=="Release" SET EXTRAFLAGS=%EXTRAFLAGS% -b

:Main
	echo(
	echo ^> Removing Previous Build
	echo ----------------------------
	IF EXIST "%1.exe" del /F "%1.exe"

	echo(
	echo ^> Compiling Program
	echo ----------------------------
	%COMPILER% -o "%OUTPUT_FILE%" "%INPUT_FILE%" %INCLUDE_FILES% %CFLAGS% %LDFLAGS% %EXTRAFLAGS%

Make sure to replace the variables in :Initialization with the proper variables.

RAYLIB_DIR the path to the root of the Raylib directory
INPUT_FILE the file the build was called from (%1 = build.bat <arg1>)
OUTPUT_FILE the output file the build should compile to (%2 = build.bat <arg1> <arg2>)
INCLUDE_FILES files to include when compiling (this is why it's recommended to create build.bat in your project directory, this way you won't have to navigate to Sublime Text user packages each time you want to change something)
COMPILER the complete path to the compiler you want to use
EXTRAFLAGS extra compiler flags (if any)

In Sublime Text, go to Tools > Build System > New Build System....

Make your sublime-build look something like this:

{
	"selector" : "source.c",

	"quiet": true,

	"shell" : true,

	"working_dir" : "$file_path",

	"variants": [
		{
		"name": "Compile",
		"cmd" : ["$file_path\\build.bat", "$file_name", "$file_base_name.exe"]
		},

		{
		"name": "Compile & Run",
		"cmd" : ["$file_path\\build.bat", "$file_name", "$file_base_name.exe", "&&", "$file_base_name.exe"], //, "&&", "$file_base_name.exe"
		},

		{
		"name": "Release",
		"cmd" : ["$file_path\\build.bat", "$file_name", "$file_base_name.exe", "Release"]
		}
	]
}

Note: If you decided to place build.bat in %AppData%\Sublime Text 3\Packages\User, you need to change "$file_path\\build.bat" to "$packages\\user\\build.bat"

Open your Raylib project in Sublime Text > Tools > Build System (or Ctrl + Shift + B) > Select the Raylib build system that you want to use.

You can build the game using View > Command Palette (or Ctrl + Shift + P) > Type Run Task > Press Enter > Select the Raylib build system that you want to use.
