This is an example/template for game programming using jMonkeyEngine 3 with JRuby. Including multi-platform packaging using Rawr.
Take a look at src/ruby/main.rb
. It's a port of
the "Hello SimpleApplication" tutorial on the jme wiki
with additional code to illustrate using your own ruby and java classes alongside each other.
The sample code draws a blue box, lets you walk around with the wasd keys,
look around with the mouse, and hit ESC
to exit. It also prints some
messages to the console to illustrate calling your own custom ruby and java
classes.
Make sure you have JRuby and Rawr. I'll leave the specifics up to you, but I highly recommend using rvm.
To run the code directly with jruby:
rake rawr:compile
jruby src/ruby/main.rb
You only need the compile step if you have java code under src/java
(which we do).
Or to package and run the app as a jar:
rake rawr:jar
java -jar package/jar/jme3-jruby-template.jar
Or to package and run the app as an OS X .app:
rake rawr:bundle:app
open package/osx/jme3-jruby-template.app
Or to package and run the app as a Windows .exe:
rake rawr:bundle:exe
package/windows/jme3-jruby-template.exe
