Build Instructions

Need to have

• CMake >= 2.8.11
• Qt4 or Qt5
• QJSON >= 0.8.0 if used Qt4
• Sparkle only for Mac OS X

Linux:

Will build Qt4 version by default

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DQT5_BUILD=OFF ..
make

Mac OS X:

Only Qt5 version

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make
make dmg # to build dmg package

Windows important note

Only Qt4 version for a while. I use Fedora 26 MinGW to build Windows versions. Furthermore I build portable static versions. Any other build way is not tested and may not work. It is on my TODO list.

Fedora hasn't a MinGW QJSON package. You need to build your own version. It is easy:

wget https://github.com/flavio/qjson/archive/master.tar.gz -O qjson-master.tar.gz
tar zxf qjson-master.tar.gz
mkdir qjson-master/win32
mkdir qjson-master/win64
cd qjson-master/win32
mingw32-cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DQT4_BUILD=ON  -DQT_INCLUDE_DIRS_NO_SYSTEM=ON -DQT_USE_IMPORTED_TARGETS=OFF ..
make
sudo make install # will be carefull, it installs qjson to system folders
cd ../win64
mingw64-cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DQT4_BUILD=ON  -DQT_INCLUDE_DIRS_NO_SYSTEM=ON -DQT_USE_IMPORTED_TARGETS=OFF ..
make
sudo make install # be careful, it installs qjson to system folders

Windows x32:

mkdir build && cd build
mingw32-cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make

Windows x64:

mkdir build && cd build
mingw64-cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make

How Can I Help?

The Project is translated from English to several languages. There are Arabic, Czech, Dutch, French, German, Spanish, Hungarian, Italian, Korean, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Portuguese and Turkish translations available. I would be glad if you add new translations. You can translate the project to your native language with Crowdin. It is not difficult and no special knowledges are required. Or you can correct my English. I know it is not good. Anyway you can always email <[email protected]> me.

Also feel free to open an issue on GitHub or send me pull requests.
