Build script generator for LÖVE

[qubodup]

I think the discussion about this topic has been all around the place.

I only can say that ghoulsblade and hagish, freegamedev.net's admins and developers of (for example) Iris2 wrote good things about premake.

Premake is a build script generator. Describe your project using the full-featured Lua scripting language and then let Premake create the input files for:

• MS Visual Studio 6, 2002, 2003, or 2005
• GNU make (including Cygwin and MinGW)
• IC#Code SharpDevelop
• MonoDevelop
• …more on the way!

A quick google search let me find hamster.

Hamster is a general-purpose Lua build system, similar to SCons (which is Python based). You can describe your whole build in 100% Lua, then Hamster will generate a makefile (or scons if that's installed) and do the build.
