============================
Binary builds
-------------
Our main target is having working prebuilt binaries for users to simply
download and run, to avoid all the setup below.
### Linux
Currently Linux builds require *Python 3.6* (but 3.7 seems to work fine as
well), GNU make and Qt Linguist tools. Following packages should suffice on
Ubuntu:
sudo apt install qttools5-dev-tools python3.6 make
Then, to install python dependencies and build the binary use:
make deps dist
### Windows
Currently Windows builds require *Python 3.6* installed system-wide and added to
`%PATH%`.
To install python and cygwin dependencies and build everything use
`deploy\windows-build.bat` batch script.
### MacOS
Currently MacOS builds require *Python 3.6*, `dmgbuild` tool (`pip3 install
dmgbuild`) and Qt SDK installed (just the "Qt >
5... > macOS" part in installer) with following added to $PATH:
export PATH="$HOME/Qt/5.11.1/clang_64/bin:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin:$PATH"
Then just install dependencies and build everything using:
make deps dmg
Development
-----------
Both build & runtime requirements are defined in `requirements.txt` file. In
order to install these use the following command:
pip install -r requirements.txt
To manage dynamic UI and translation binaries generation we use a very simple
GNU make-based build system.
To simply build everything needed to run `luftdaten-tool.py` run:
make
To build and run use:
make run
To remove all build artifacts use:
make clean
All requirements are set up using wildcards, so, in theory, `Makefile` shouldn't
need much changes in near future.
Translations
------------
In order to rebuild `*.ts` files use:
make i18n-update
