# mnm
Make Node Module is a build tool for making native node.js modules.
## Installation
```bash
$ npm install mnm
```
## Quick Examples
```javascript
var builder = new Builder();
builder.appendUnique('CXXFLAGS', ['-fno-builtin']);
builder.appendIncludeDir('src/');
builder.appendSourceDir('./src');
builder.target = "mynativemodule_bindings";
builder.run();
```
## Realworld Examples
* [node-java](https://github.com/nearinfinity/node-java) - A node.js to Java bridge.
* [node-shark](https://github.com/nearinfinity/node-shark) - Wrapper around libwireshark providing network packet dissection.
* [node-oracle](https://github.com/nearinfinity/node-oracle) - node.js driver to connect with an oracle database.

# API Documentation
Prints the command lines being executed along with other verbose output.
Adds the -Wall flag to the compile and prints all compiler warnings.
### builder.appendLinkerLibrary(libname)
Adds a library to the linker.
__Arguments__
* libname - The name of the library to add. This string should not contain the lib prefix or the extension.
__Example__
builder.appendLinkerLibrary('ssl');
### builder.appendLinkerSearchDir(dir)
Adds a library to the linker search path.
__Arguments__
* dir - The directory to add to the search path.
__Example__
builder.appendLinkerSearchDir('/usr/local/lib');
### builder.appendIncludeDir(dir)
Adds a path to the list of include search directories.
__Arguments__
* dir - The directory to add to the search path.
__Example__
builder.builder_appendIncludeDir('/src');
### builder.appendUnique(flagGroup, flags)
Adds a flag or flags to a flag group.
__Arguments__
* flagGroup - The flag group to add the flags to. This should be LINKFLAGS or CXXFLAGS.
* flags - A single string or array of strings to add to the group.
__Example__
builder.appendUnique('CXXFLAGS', '-Wall');
builder.appendUnique('CXXFLAGS', ['-Idir1', '-Idir2']);
### builder.appendSourceDir(dir)
Adds a source code directory to the list of compilable items. All files with the extensions cpp, c, cxx will be added to the compile step.
__Arguments__
* dir - The path to the directory containing the source files.
__Example__
builder.appendSourceDir('./src');
### builder.appendSource(fileName)
Adds a single source file to the list of compilable items.
__Arguments__
* fileName - The name of the file to compile.
__Example__
builder.appendSource('./src/myModule.cpp');
### builder.compile([callback])
Performs the compile.
__Arguments__
* callback (optional) - An optional callback to be called when the compile is complete.
__Example__
builder.compile();
Performs the link.
__Arguments__
* callback (optional) - An optional callback to be called when the link is complete.
__Example__
builder.link();
### builder.compileAndLink([callback])
Performs the compile and link.
__Arguments__
* callback (optional) - An optional callback to be called when the compile and link is complete.
__Example__
builder.compileAndLink();
### builder.run([options], [callback])
Run the builder. If no options are specified will use command line arguments to determine what to do.
__Arguments__
* options (optional) - An object containing the following options
* verbose - true to be verbose
* showWarnings - true to show all compiler warnings
* action - set to one of the following actions
* build - compile and link the project
* compile - just perform the compile step.
* link - just perform the link step.
* callback (optional) - An optional callback to be called when the run is complete.
__Example__
builder.compileAndLink();
