|
||
Most of the dependencies should be available through your package manger. You
|
||
may either follow the directions below, or simply run `./simple_make.sh` after
|
||
cloning this repository, which will attempt to automatically download
|
||
dependencies followed by compilation.
|
||
|
||
### Install git
|
||
In order to clone the qTox repository you need Git.
|
||
|
||
|
||
<a name="arch-git" />
|
||
|
||
#### Arch Linux
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo pacman -S --needed git
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
<a name="debian-git" />
|
||
|
||
#### Debian
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo apt-get install git
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
<a name="fedora-git" />
|
||
|
||
#### Fedora
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo dnf install git
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
<a name="opensuse-git" />
|
||
|
||
#### openSUSE
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo zypper install git
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
<a name="ubuntu-git" />
|
||
|
||
#### Ubuntu
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo apt-get install git
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Clone qTox
|
||
|
||
Afterwards open a new terminal, change to a directory of your choice and clone
|
||
the repository:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cd /home/$USER/qTox
|
||
git clone https://github.com/qTox/qTox.git qTox
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The following steps assumes that you cloned the repository at
|
||
`/home/$USER/qTox`. If you decided to choose another location, replace
|
||
corresponding parts.

|
||
|
||
### GCC, Qt, FFmpeg, OpenAL Soft and qrencode
|
||
|
||
<a name="arch-other-deps" />
|
||
|
||
#### Arch Linux
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo pacman -S --needed base-devel qt5 openal libxss qrencode ffmpeg
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
<a name="debian-other-deps" />
|
||
|
||
#### Debian
|
||
|
||
**Note that only Debian >=8 stable (jessie) is supported.**
|
||
|
||
If you use Debian 8, you have to compile FFmpeg manually and add backports to
|
||
your `sources.list`. Adding backports:
|
||
http://backports.debian.org/Instructions/
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo apt-get install \
|
||
build-essential \
|
||
cmake \
|
||
ffmpeg \
|
||
libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev \
|
||

```
|
||
|
||
**Go to [FFmpeg](#ffmpeg) section to compile it.**
|
||
|
||
|
||
<a name="fedora-other-deps" />
|
||
|
||
#### Fedora
|
||
|
||
**Note that sqlcipher is not included in all versions of Fedora yet.**
|
||
As of writing this section (November 2016), Fedora 25 ships sqlcipher, but
|
||
Fedora 24 and older don't ship it yet.
|
||
**This means that if you can't install sqlcipher from repositories, you'll
|
||
have to compile it yourself, otherwise compiling qTox will fail.**
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo dnf groupinstall "Development Tools" "C Development Tools and Libraries"
|
||
# (can also use sudo dnf install @"Development Tools")
|
||

### FFmpeg
|
||
|
||
If you have installed FFmpeg earlier (i.e. you don't run Debian 8), skip this
|
||
section, and go directly to installing [**toxcore**](#toxcore-dependencies).
|
||
|
||
To get ffmpeg compiled and put in directory `libs`, run this script in qTox
|
||
directory:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
[ ! -e "libs" ] && mkdir libs # create directory libs if doesn't exist
|
||
[ ! -e "ffmpeg" ] && mkdir ffmpeg
|
||
|
||
cd libs/
|
||
export PREFIX_DIR="$PWD"
|
||
|
||
cd ../ffmpeg
|

```
|
||
|
||
|
||

|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
### sqlcipher
|
||
|
||
If you are not using an old version of Fedora, skip this section, and go
|
||
directly to compiling
|
||
[**toxcore**](#toxcore-compiling).
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone https://github.com/sqlcipher/sqlcipher
|
||
cd sqlcipher
|
||
./configure --enable-tempstore=yes CFLAGS="-DSQLITE_HAS_CODEC" \
|
||
LDFLAGS="-lcrypto"
|
||
make
|
||
sudo make install
|
||
cd ..
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Compile toxcore
|
||
|
||
Provided that you have all required dependencies installed, you can simply run:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone https://github.com/toktok/c-toxcore.git toxcore
|
||
cd toxcore
|
||
git checkout v0.1.2
|
||
autoreconf -if
|
||
./configure
|
||
make -j$(nproc)
|
||
sudo make install
|
||
echo '/usr/local/lib/' | sudo tee -a /etc/ld.so.conf.d/locallib.conf
|
||
sudo ldconfig
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Compile qTox
|
||
|
||
**Make sure that all the dependencies are installed.** If you experience
|
||
problems with compiling, it's most likely due to missing dependencies, so please
|
||
make sure that you did install *all of them*.
|
||
|
||
Run in qTox directory to compile:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cmake .
|
||
make
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If you had to compile [FFmpeg](#ffmpeg) manually, run this script from qTox
|
||
directory before starting qTox:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cd libs/lib
|
||
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$PWD"
|
||
cd ../../
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Now you can start compiled qTox with `./qtox`
|
||
|
||
Congratulations, you've compiled qTox `:)`
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### Debian / Ubuntu / Mint
|
||
|
||
If the compiling process stops with a missing dependency like:
|
||
`... libswscale/swscale.h missing` try:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
apt-file search libswscale/swscale.h
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
And install the package that provides the missing file.
|
||
Start make again. Repeat if necessary until all dependencies are installed. If
|
||
you can, please note down all additional dependencies you had to install that
|
||
aren't listed here, and let us know what is missing `;)`

||
|
||
### Building packages
|
||
|
||
Alternately, qTox now has the experimental and probably-dodgy ability to package
|
||
itself (in `.deb` form natively, and `.rpm` form with
|
||
[alien](http://joeyh.name/code/alien/)).
|
||
|
||
After installing the required dependencies, run `bootstrap.sh` and then run the
|
||
`buildPackages.sh` script, found in the tools folder. It will automatically get
|
||
the packages necessary for building `.deb`s, so be prepared to type your
|
||
password for sudo.
|
||
|
||
|
||
<a name="osx" />
|
||
|
||
## OS X
|
||
|
||
Supported OS X versions: >=10.8.
|
||
|
||
Compiling qTox on OS X for development requires 3 tools:
|
||
[Xcode](https://developer.apple.com/xcode/),
|
||
[Qt 5.4+](https://www.qt.io/qt5-4/) and [homebrew](https://brew.sh).
|
||
|
||
### Automated Script
|
||
|
||
You can now set up your OS X system to compile qTox automatically thanks to the
|
||
script in: `./osx/qTox-Mac-Deployer-ULTIMATE.sh`
|
||
|
||
This script can be run independently of the qTox repo and is all that's needed
|
||
to build from scratch on OS X.
|
||
|
||
To use this script you must launch terminal which can be found:
|
||
`Applications > Utilities > Terminal.app`
|
||
|
||
If you wish to lean more you can run `./qTox-Mac-Deployer-ULTIMATE.sh -h`
|
||
|
||
Note that the script will revert any non-committed changes to qTox repository
|
||
during the `update` phase.
|
||
|
||
#### First Run / Install
|
||
|
||
If you are running the script for the first time you will want to make sure your
|
||
system is ready. To do this simply run `./qTox-Mac-Deployer-ULTIMATE.sh -i` to
|
||
run you through the automated install set up.
|
||
|
||
After running the installation setup you are now ready to build qTox from
|
||
source, to do this simply run: `./qTox-Mac-Deployer-ULTIMATE.sh -b`
|
||
|
||
If there aren't any errors then you'll find a locally working qTox application
|
||
in your home folder under `~/qTox-Mac_Build`
|
||
|
||
#### Updating
|
||
|
||
If you want to update your application for testing purposes or you want to run a
|
||
nightly build setup then run: `./qTox-Mac-Deployer-ULTIMATE.sh -u` and follow
|
||
the prompts. (NOTE: If you know you updated the repos before running this hit Y)
|
||
followed by `./qTox-Mac-Deployer-ULTIMATE.sh -b` to build the application once
|
||
more. (NOTE: This will delete your previous build.)
|
||
|
||
#### Deploying
|
||
|
||
OS X requires an extra step to make the `qTox.app` file shareable on a system
|
||
that doesn't have the required libraries installed already.
|
||
|
||
If you want to share the build you've made with your other friends who use OS X
|
||
then simply run: `./qTox-Mac-Deployer-ULTIMATE.sh -d`
|
||
|
||
### Manual Compiling
|
||
#### Required Libraries
|
||
|
||
Install homebrew if you don't have it:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
First, let's install the dependencies available via `brew`.
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
brew install git ffmpeg qrencode libtool automake autoconf check qt5 libvpx \
|
||
opus sqlcipher libsodium
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Next, install
|
||
[toxcore](https://github.com/toktok/c-toxcore/blob/master/INSTALL.md#osx)
|
||
|
||
Then, clone qTox:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone https://github.com/qTox/qTox
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Finally, copy all required files. Whenever you update your brew packages, you
|
||
may skip all of the above steps and simply run the following commands:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cd ./git/qTox
|
||
sudo bash bootstrap-osx.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Compiling
|
||
|
||
You can build qTox with Qt Creator
|
||
[seperate download](http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/#section-6) or
|
||
manually with cmake
|
||
|
||
With that; in your terminal you can compile qTox in the git dir:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cmake .
|
||
make
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Or a cleaner method would be to:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cd ./git/dir/qTox
|
||
mkdir ./build
|
||
cd build
|
||
cmake ..
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Deploying
|
||
|
||
If you compiled qTox properly you can now deploy the `qTox.app` that's created
|
||
where you built qTox so you can distribute the package.
|
||
|
||
Using your qt5 homebrew installation from the build directory:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
/usr/local/Cellar/qt5/5.5.1_2/bin/macdeployqt ./qTox.app
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Running qTox
|
||
|
||
You've got 2 choices, either click on the qTox app that suddenly exists, or do
|
||
the following:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
qtox.app/Contents/MacOS/qtox
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Enjoy the snazzy CLI output as your friends and family congratulate you on
|
||
becoming a hacker

||
|
||
## Windows
|
||
|
||
### Qt
|
||
|
||
Download the Qt online installer for Windows from
|
||
[qt.io](https://www.qt.io/download-open-source/). While installation you have
|
||
to assemble your Qt toolchain. Take the most recent version of Qt compiled with
|
||
MinGW. Although the installer provides its own bundled MinGW compiler toolchain
|
||
its recommend installing it separately because Qt is missing MSYS which is
|
||
needed to compile and install OpenAL. Thus you can - if needed - deselect the
|
||
tab `Tools`. The following steps assume that Qt is installed at `C:\Qt`. If you
|
||
decided to choose another location, replace corresponding parts.
|
||
|
||
### MinGW
|
||
|
||
Download the MinGW installer for Windows from
|
||
[sourceforge.net](http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/). Make
|
||
sure to install MSYS (a set of Unix tools for Windows). The following steps
|
||
assume that MinGW is installed at `C:\MinGW`. If you decided to choose another
|
||
location, replace corresponding parts. Select `mingw-developer-toolkit`,
|
||
`mingw32-base`, `mingw32-gcc-g++`, `msys-base` and `mingw32-pthreads-w32`
|
||
packages using MinGW Installation Manager (`mingw-get.exe`). Check that the
|
||
version of MinGW, corresponds to the version of the QT component!
|
||
|
||
### Wget
|
||
|
||
Download the Wget installer for Windows from
|
||
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/wget.htm. Install them. The following
|
||
steps assume that Wget is installed at `C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32\`. If you
|
||
decided to choose another location, replace corresponding parts.
|
||
|
||
### UnZip
|
||
|
||
Download the UnZip installer for Windows from
|
||
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/unzip.htm. Install it. The following
|
||
steps assume that UnZip is installed at `C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32\`. If you
|
||
decided to choose another location, replace corresponding parts.
|
||
|
||
### Setting up Path
|
||
|
||
Add MinGW/MSYS/CMake binaries to the system path to make them globally
|
||
accessible. Open `Control Panel` -> `System and Security` -> `System` ->
|
||
`Advanced system settings` -> `Environment Variables...` (or run `sysdm.cpl`
|
||
select tab `Advanced system settings` -> button `Environment Variables`). In the
|
||
second box search for the `PATH` variable and press `Edit...`. The input box
|
||
`Variable value:` should already contain some directories. Each directory is
|
||
separated with a semicolon. Extend the input box by adding
|
||
`;C:\MinGW\bin;C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\CMake 2.8\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32\bin`.
|
||
The very first semicolon must only be added if it is missing. CMake may be added
|
||
by installer automatically. Make sure that paths containing alternative `sh`,
|
||
`bash` implementations such as `C:\Program Files\OpenSSH\bin` are at the end of
|
||
`PATH` or build may fail.
|
||
|
||
### Cloning the Repository
|
||
|
||
Clone the repository (https://github.com/qTox/qTox.git) with your preferred Git
|
||
client. [SmartGit](http://www.syntevo.com/smartgit/) or
|
||
[TorteiseGit](https://tortoisegit.org) are both very nice for this task
|
||
(you may need to add `git.exe` to your `PATH` system variable). The
|
||
following steps assume that you cloned the repository at `C:\qTox`. If you
|
||
decided to choose another location, replace corresponding parts.
|
||
|
||
### Getting dependencies
|
||
|
||
Run `bootstrap.bat` in the previously cloned `C:\qTox` repository. The script will
|
||
download the other necessary dependencies, compile them and put them into their
|
||
appropriate directories.
|
||
|
||
Note that there have been detections of false positives by some anti virus software
|
||
in the past within some of the libraries used. Please refer to the wiki page
|
||
[problematic antiviruses](https://github.com/qTox/qTox/wiki/Problematic-antiviruses)
|
||
for more information if you run into troubles on that front.
|
||
|
||
## Compile-time switches
|
||
|
||
They are passed as an argument to `cmake` command. E.g. with a switch `SWITCH`
|
||
that has value `YES` it would be passed to `cmake` in a following manner:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cmake -DSWITCH=yes
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Switches:
|
||
|
||
- `SMILEYS`, values:
|
||
- if not defined or an unsupported value is passed, all emoticon packs are
|
||
included
|
||
- `DISABLED` – don't include any emoticon packs, custom ones are still loaded
|
||
- `MIN` – minimal support for emoticons, only a single emoticon pack is
|
||
included
