RenPyWeb - Ren'Py in your HTML5 web browser

This is the build environment for RenPyWeb.

How to build

  • See https://github.com/renpy/renpy-build/ - something like:

    git clone https://github.com/renpy/renpy-build/
    cd renpy-build/
    BASE=. bash ./nightly/git.sh
    # fix-up tasks ordering
    ./build.py --platform web
    
  • Emscripten: you need to recompile everything on upgrade:

    rm -rf build/ install/ python-emscripten/2.7.18/build/
    make cythonclean
    emcc --clear-ports
    
  • Recompile:

    make
    scripts/install_in_renpy.sh
    
  • Package the game: from the Ren'Py interface, or using scripts/distribute_game.sh (basic testing only)

How to run locally

  make testserver
  $BROWSER http://localhost:8000/

How to make small-scale tests

Check the pygame-example-* targets. Symlink pygame-example/main.py to the variant you wish to experiment with.

Also check the native target to try to run Ren'Py natively with some Emscripten behavior.
