The filter_audio API is not working for qTox/Tox and thus disabled by default via compiler switch. In current qTox UI, it is not configurable, even when this switch is enabled. According to issue #3194 the library is no longer maintained as well. I don't see any reason to keep it in qTox.

|
|
are provided instructions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
*`yum` is now officially deprecated by `dnf`. using `yum` will redirect to `dnf`
|
|
on Fedora 21 and fail on future versions.*
|
|
```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/tux3/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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<a name="other-deps" />
|
|
### GCC, Qt, FFmpeg, OpanAL 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 stable, you have to add backports to your `sources.list` for FFmpeg
|
|
and others. Instructions here: http://backports.debian.org/Instructions/
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt-get install build-essential qt5-qmake qt5-default qttools5-dev-tools \

```
|
|
|
|
|
|
<a name="fedora-other-deps" />
|
|
#### Fedora
|
|
**Note that sqlcipher is not included in Fedora(!).**
|
|
|
|
**This means that you have to compile sqlcipher yourself, otherwise compiling
|
|
qTox will fail.**
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo dnf groupinstall "Development Tools"
|
|
# (can also use sudo dnf install @"Development Tools")
|
|
sudo dnf install qt-devel qt-doc qt-creator qt5-qtsvg qt5-qtsvg-devel \

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### sqlcipher
|
|
|
|
If you are not using 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/irungentoo/toxcore.git
|
|
cd toxcore
|
|
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
|
|
qmake
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now you can start compiled qTox with `./qtox`
|
|
|
|
Congratulations, you've compiled qTox `:)`
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### openSUSE / Fedora
|
|
|
|
Note to Fedora users: check qt5 version before building default is 4.8 on fedora
|
|
21 / 22, everything up until `qmake-qt5` will build fine but then `qmake-qt5`
|
|
will freak out.
|
|
```bash
|
|
qmake-qt5
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### 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
|
|
|
|
Compiling qTox on OS X for development requires 3 tools:
|
|
[Xcode](https://developer.apple.com/xcode/),
|
|
[Qt 5.4+](http://www.qt.io/qt5-4/) and [homebrew](http://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`
|
|
|
|
#### 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/irungentoo/toxcore/blob/master/INSTALL.md#osx)
|
|
|
|
Then, clone qTox:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/tux3/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 you can
|
|
hunt down the version of home brew qt5 your using in the
|
|
`/usr/local/Cellar/qt5/` directory. e.g.
|
|
`/usr/local/Cellar/qt5/5.5.1_2/bin/qmake` with `5.5.1_2` being the version of
|
|
Qt5 that's been installed.
|
|
|
|
With that; in your terminal you can compile qTox in the git dir:
|
|
```bash
|
|
/usr/local/Cellar/qt5/5.5.1_2/bin/qmake ./qtox.pro
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or a cleaner method would be to:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ./git/dir/qTox
|
|
mkdir ./build
|
|
cd build
|
|
/usr/local/Cellar/qt5/5.5.1_2/bin/qmake ../qtox.pro
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### 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

|
### 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\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\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\GnuWin32\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.
|
|
|
|
### Cloning the Repository
|
|
|
|
Clone the repository (https://github.com/tux3/qTox.git) with your preferred Git
|
|
client. [SmartGit](http://www.syntevo.com/smartgit/) is very nice for this task
|
|
(you may need to add the path to the `git.exe` system variable Path). 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 cloned `C:\qTox` directory. Script will download rest of
|
|
dependencies compile them and put to appropriate directories.
