## How to build dupeGuru for macos
|
|
These instructions are for the Qt version of the UI on macOS.
|
|
|
|
*Note: The Cocoa UI of dupeGuru is hosted in a separate repo: https://github.com/arsenetar/dupeguru-cocoa and is no longer "supported".*
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- [Python 3.7+][python]
|
|
- [Xcode 12.3][xcode] or just Xcode command line tools (older versions can be used if not interested in arm macs)
|
|
- [Homebrew][homebrew]
|
|
- [qt5](https://www.qt.io/)
|
|
|
|
#### Prerequisite setup
|
|
1. Install Xcode if desired
|
|
2. Install [Homebrew][homebrew], if not on the path after install (arm based Macs) create `~/.zshrc`
|
|
with `export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH"`. Will need to reload terminal or source the file to take
|
|
effect.
|
|
3. Install qt5 with `brew`. If you are using a version of macos without system python 3.7+ then you will
|
|
also need to install that via brew or with pyenv.
|
|
|
|
$ brew install qt5
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Using `brew` to install qt5 is to allow pyqt5 to build without a native wheel
|
|
available. If you are using an intel based mac you can probably skip this step.
|
|
|
|
4. May need to launch a new terminal to have everything working.
|
|
|
|
### With build.py
|
|
OSX comes with a version of python 3 by default in newer versions of OSX. To produce universal
|
|
builds either the 3.8 version shipped in macos or 3.9.1 or newer needs to be used. If needing to
|
|
build pyqt5 from source then the first line below is needed, else it may be omitted. (Path shown is
|
|
for an arm mac.)
|
|
|
|
$ export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/qt/bin:$PATH"
|
|
$ cd <dupeGuru directory>
|
|
$ python3 -m venv ./env
|
|
$ source ./env/bin/activate
|
|
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
$ python build.py
|
|
$ python run.py
|
|
|
|
### Generate OSX Packages
|
|
The extra requirements need to be installed to run packaging: `pip install -r requirements-extra.txt`.
|
|
Run the following in the respective virtual environment.
|
|
|
|
$ python package.py
|
|
|
|
This will produce a dupeGuru.app in the dist folder.
|
|
|
|
### Running tests
|
|
The complete test suite can be run with tox just like on linux. NOTE: The extra requirements need to
|
|
be installed to run unit tests: `pip install -r requirements-extra.txt`.
