sourcemerger is a Python command-line tool that generates a single-header C++ library from your source code.\
It takes as input your headers and implementation files and outputs one .h file (with include guards) and one .cpp file.

## Quickstart
### Requirements

You'll need [Python 3.6 or newer](https://www.python.org/).

### Install

sourcemerger is installed via pip, the Python package installer:
```
pip install sourcemerger
```

### Usage

Point sourcemerger to the headers and implementation files of your library, choose what name to give to the two output files and specify a destination folder:
```
sourcemerger -e path/to/your/headers -s path/to/your/impl_files -n your_library_name -d path/to/destination
```

## Options
```
-e, --headers HEADERS_FOLDER        Path to the folder that contains the headers (both .h and .hpp headers are supported)
-s, --sources IMPL_FOLDER           Path to the folder that contains the implementation files (i.e. the .cpp files)
-n, --name LIBRARY_NAME             Name of the output library files (.h and .cpp extensions are appended automatically)
-d, --dest DEST_FOLDER              Path to save the output files in (optional; default is current dir)
-v, --verbose                       Enable verbose output
-h, --help                          Show this help message and exit
--version                           Show version number and exit
```
