Api generation fails

[HugoP707]

After following the instructions to build godot nim-stub, i get the following error:

NimRL\src\fpscounter.nim(5, 17) Error: cannot open file: godotapi/engine Tip: 4 messages have been suppressed, use --verbose to show them. Error: Execution failed with exit code 1 ... Command: "C:\Program Files\nim-1.2.2\bin\nim.exe" c --noNimblePath -d:NimblePkgVersion=0.1.0 --path:"C:\Users\porra\.nimble\pkgs\godot-0.8.0" --path:"C:\Users\porra\.nimble\pkgs\compiler-1.2.2" "-o:..\_dlls\nim_64.dll" "..\src\stub"

I dont know what else to do.

Are you sure this is the API generation that fails? Does the godotapi/engine.nim file not exist? What happens if you delete the api.json and godotapi folder and try to rebuild? Are there errors during API generation?

[HugoP707]

no other file exists in godotapi apart from api.json

i dont think there are any clear errors.
first time i run nake build
i get this:

El sistema no puede encontrar la ruta especificada. (System couldnt find the specified route)

Godot Engine v3.2.2.stable.official - https://godotengine.org

Godot opens and closes, which i guess its expected

the second time i run nake build i get the error of my first comment

Heya. I'm using Godot 3.2.2-stable as well, and I'm getting the same issue. The godotapi folder is completely empty, and it says this.

[develon@DevOS Nim Stub]$ GODOT_BIN="/usr/bin/godot" ~/.nimble/bin/nake build

Failed to generate api.json

I just thought I'd mention it, because I'd really enjoy using this api.

Sorry about that. I went to the stub repository and downloaded the source archive, and then compiled that. It seems to be fine now. I should mention that the documentation says to use --depth=1, and I think that may be what caused this.

[HugoP707]

tried using godot-nim after all this time, tried without --depth=1, and after manually generating api.json and the godotapi (for some reason nake cannot do it)
It works
