Distributing binaries with Common Lisp and foreign libraries

digitailor · on Feb 26, 2023

The workflow update-deps.yaml will periodically check for new updates of SBCL or the linked libraries. If an update is found, it edits build.env and creates a pull request that will check that the set of dependencies can be compiled and linked without errors.

Just, wow. Thank you for this.

current workflow: binaries with dynamic linking https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/scripting.html

The Deploy tool helps in shipping foreign libraries alongside the binary: https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/scripting.html#wi...

Truely static executables are coming to SBCL: https://www.timmons.dev/posts/static-executables-with-sbcl-v...

and this.

Coming from Python, sending my self-contained web app to my VPS is a relief :)

"The :sb-prelink-linkage-table works on Windows but causes test failures."

At least there is some progress :)
