Please help a student Makefile:67: recipe for target 'setup' failed about godot-python HOT 9 CLOSED

I assume you're using linux, on windows I have no idea. You have to create a symbolic link to godot (and it has to be named exactly godot) inside of your godot-python folder, so:

cd $GODOT_PYTHON
ln -s $ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_GODOT godot

where $GODOT_PYTHON is the folder where you downloaded/cloned the touilleMan/godot-python repository and the other variable is you know... self explanatory.

It seems that you liked godot inside of godot-python/godot, it has to be inside of godot-python.

For some reason no matter what I am running i get that extra gotdot...

ry@X1Carbon:~/G/GODOT-PYTHON/godot-python$ make setup GODOT_TARGET_DIR=/home/ry/G/GODOT-PYTHON/godot

ln -s /home/ry/G/GODOT-PYTHON/ /home/ry/.MyShit/G/GODOT-PYTHON/godot-python/godot/godot
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/home/ry/G/GODOT-PYTHON/godot-python/godot/godot': Not a directory
Makefile:67: recipe for target 'setup' failed
make: *** [setup] Error 1

from godot-python.

It's difficult to understand what you're doing without knowing where your godot directory is and where godot-python is (absolute paths). Tell me those and I'll give you the command lines to run to set it up properly (without make setup)

There is a
.godot located in the ry@X1Carbon:~/.godot$

ry@X1Carbon:~/GDK/Godot_v2.1.4-stable_x11.64

and the
ry@X1Carbon:~/GDK/godot-python$ This is the one I cloned from github
with
git clone --recursive https://github.com/touilleMan/godot-python.git

Thanks again, I really appreciate it.

No... I guess you misunderstood how this works. I'll give you the fresh steps from start to finish:

cd $HOME
mkdir godot-tmp
cd godot-tmp
git clone https://github.com/godotengine/godot.git
git clone --recursive https://github.com/touilleMan/godot-python.git
# there's a bug in the `Makefile` so `make setup` doesn't work
ln -s $HOME/godot-tmp/godot $HOME/godot-tmp/godot-python/godot
ln -s $HOME/godot-tmp/godot-python/pythonscript $HOME/godot-tmp/godot/modules/pythonscript
make generate_gdnative_cffidefs
make generate_cffi_bindings
make compile
# optional
make tests
make example

from godot-python.

When running this command:
ry@X1Carbon:~/godot-tmp/godot-python$ make generate_gdnative_cffidefs

I am getting this error:
/home/ry/godot-tmp/godot-python/tools/generate_gdnative_cffidefs.py --output /home/ry/godot-tmp/godot-python/pythonscript/cffi_bindings/cdef.gen.h /home/ry/godot-tmp/godot-python/godot

Seems like I am missing the last DIR gotdot in the godot-tmp/godot-python/godot/modules/gdnative/godot/

from godot-python.

I think there's a bug in that script, might be that gdnative changed places meanwhile, I haven't tried recompiling lately. Given that you have very limited knowledge in compiling & command line, you should just use the release: https://github.com/touilleMan/godot-python/releases/download/v0.9.0/godot-python-0.9.0.tar.bz2 for now at least. There's a readme inside the archive, but basically all you need to do is execute ./run_godot in the extracted folder.

Super Cool!

Thank you for taking the time to do that.

hi @Ry10p !

I suggest you have a look at the travis builds in order to know which version of Godot works.
Truth is Godot's GDnative is moving really fast right now, so build breaks often. As a matter of fact I'm currently working on this and hope the build system for godot python will eventually be much easier once GDnative will be mature enough (e.i. once Godot v3.0 is released basically).
