# Stitch Monorepo

[Butterscotch Shenanigans](https://www.bscotch.net) ("Bscotch") develops and maintains a collection of tools for management of [GameMaker](https://gamemaker.io) projects. These tools are collected under the umbrella trademark "Stitch".

This monorepo includes the code for many of the Stitch projects.

## Stitch Projects

Some of the projects listed here are available as compiled packages via [npm](https://npmjs.com) or other 3rd party repositories. Others are only used locally.

- [**Stitch for VSCode**](packages/vscode): A [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) extension providing code editing features for GameMaker project files. Available as [`bscotch.bscotch-stitch-vscode` via the Visual Studio Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=bscotch.bscotch-stitch-vscode).

- [**Stitch YY**](packages/yy): Utilities for reading, validating, and writing `.yy` and `.yyp` files. Available as [`@bscotch/yy` via npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@bscotch/yy).

- [**GML Parser**](packages/parser): A GML parser and project modeler, providing programmatic access to a GameMaker project's resources and code. Provides features like go-to-definition, adding/removing resources, etc. Underpins Stitch for VSCode, but can be used on its own to create other tools and pipelines. Available as [`@bscotch/gml-parser` via npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@bscotch/gml-parser).

- [**Sprite Source**](packages/sprite-source): A library for creating art asset pipelines for GameMaker projects, including a basic CLI. Built into Stitch for VSCode, but also available as a standalone thing for other workflows. Available as [`@bscotch/sprite-source` via npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@bscotch/sprite-source).

- [**Stitch Launcher**](packages/launcher): Utilities for automatically installing the GameMaker IDE by version, and opening GameMaker projects with specific IDE versions.

- [**GameMaker Merged Releases**](packages/releases): Utilities for merging the various GameMaker IDE and Runtime release notes into a single merged listing. Available as [`@bscotch/gamemaker-releases` via npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@bscotch/gamemaker-releases). Merged feeds are regularly published to [this repo's releases](https://github.com/bscotch/stitch/releases/latest/download/releases-summary.json).

- [**Stitch Core (LEGACY)**](https://github.com/bscotch/stitch-legacy/tree/develop/packages/core): The core SDK for managing and manipulating GameMaker projects. It includes a programmatic API and a CLI. Available as [`@bscotch/stitch` via npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@bscotch/stitch). (No longer maintained. Superseded by the GML Parser project.)

- [**Spritely (LEGACY)**](packages/spritely): Utilities for batch-preparation of source images for import as GameMaker sprites. It includes a programmatic API and a CLI. Available as [`@bscotch/spritely` via npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@bscotch/spritely). (No longer maintained. Superseded by the Sprite Source project.)

## Development

### Setup

1. Install [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/installation)

- If you already have corepack available but do not have pnpm, you can run `npm run setup:pnpm` in this directory to install it.

2. Run `pnpm install` in this directory to install all dependencies.

- You can use [pnpm filters](https://pnpm.io/filtering) to only install the dependencies for a specific package.

3. Run `pnpm build:all` to build all packages.
