Build and install instructions

[BillyDM]

Could you please add instructions on how to build and install this in the README please? Also a list of dependencies would be great.

I kind of figured out how to build it, expect that only a few of the modules are actually showing up in the UI:

These are the steps I took to build this (I'm on Manjaro Linux):

sudo pacman -S catch2 nlohmann-json
git clone --recursive https://github.com/aliefhooghe/Gammou.git
cd Gammou
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ../src
make

Then I copied /build/libgammou_vst2_plugin.so into my VST directory and loaded it into Bitwig.

I am sorry for the answer delay !
The modules you are actually seeing are the built in ones. The other ones are external modules which are basically directories containing some llvm bitcodes and json files with a given structure. The plugin packages are built in build/packages/out and the synthesizer will look for them in the GAMMOU_PACKAGE_PATH environment variable. You can set it to the build/packages/out for example or copy this directory where you want to.

There is also the GAMMOU_PATCH_PATH environment variable which give the directory to save/load patches and the GAMMOU_SAMPLE_PATH in order to load wav samples in some modules (like the granular synthesis module).

In addition you are right, there is a lack of documentation, I will write one.

Any progress ?
