# node-cross-compiler

This project aims to simplify the process of cross-compiling node.js on

smartphone and robotics platforms.

My main target platform is the Parrot AR Drone 2.0, but I will merge pull

requests for any other platforms as well.

## Requirements

You will need to install [vagrant](http://vagrantup.com/) as the cross

compiling is done inside of a virtual machine.

## Cross compiling

Cross compiling node.js for the `ardrone2` is as easy as running:

```bash

$ git clone git://github.com/felixge/node-cross-compiler.git

$ cd node-cross-compiler

$ vagrant up

$ vagrant ssh

$ cd cross-compiler

$ ./setup-vm.sh

$ make ardrone2

```

This will fire up a new vagrant machine, ssh into it, and build node.js to run

on the ardrone2. You will find the resulting binary in `build/bin/node`.

## Platforms

### ardrone2

Helpers have been added for installing node on the ardrone. Simply running ```./helpers/ardrone2.sh``` will build and install node on your drone.

## Contributing

If you want to contribute support for another platform, we probably need a

`common.sh` file for shared environment variables. Other than that it should

be as simple as adding it to the `platforms` folder and `Makefile`.
