Previously, (probably because the exe doesn't have version embedded in it anymore), we ended up, during upgrades, with executable-less installs.
Contents ===== This package contains the source for dupeGuru. To learns how to build it, refer to the "Build dupeGuru" section. Below is the description of the various subfolders: - core: Contains the core logic code for dupeGuru. It's Python code written in TDD style. - core_*: Edition-specific-cross-toolkit code written in Python. - cocoa: UI code for the Cocoa toolkit. It's Objective-C code. - qt: UI code for the Qt toolkit. It's written in Python and uses PyQt. Before redistributing changes in this part of the code, read the "qt/WARNING" file. - images: Images used by the different UI codebases. There are also other sub-folder that comes from external repositories (automatically checked out with svn:externals): - hsutil: A collection of helpers used across HS applications. - hsdocgen: An ad-hoc document generation used across HS project (used for help files) - hsmedia: A library to read audio file metadata, used in dupeGuru ME. - cocoalib: A collection of helpers used across Cocoa UI codebases of HS applications. - qtlib: A collection of helpers used across Qt UI codebases of HS applications. dupeGuru Dependencies ===== Before being able to build dupeGuru, a few dependencies have to be installed: General dependencies ----- - Python 2.6 (http://www.python.org) - Send2Trash (http://hg.hardcoded.net/send2trash) - lxml, to read and write XML files. (http://codespeak.net/lxml/) - Mako, to generate help files. (http://www.makotemplates.org/) - PyYaml, for help files and the build system. (http://pyyaml.org/) - Nose, to run unit tests. (http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/) OS X prerequisites ----- - XCode 3.1 (http://developer.apple.com/TOOLS/xcode/) - Sparkle (http://sparkle.andymatuschak.org/) - PyObjC 2.2. (http://pyobjc.sourceforge.net/) - py2app (http://svn.pythonmac.org/py2app/py2app/trunk/doc/index.html) Windows prerequisites --- - Visual Studio 2008 (Express is enough) is needed to build C extensions. (http://www.microsoft.com/Express/) - PyQt 4.6 (http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/news) - Python Imaging Library for dupeGuru PE. (http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/) - PyInstaller, if you want to build a exe. You don't need it if you just want to run dupeGuru. (http://www.pyinstaller.org/) - Advanced Installer, if you want to build the installer file. (http://www.advancedinstaller.com/) Building dupeGuru ===== First, make sure you meet the dependencies listed in the section above. Then you need to configure your build with: python configure.py If you want, you can specify a UI to use with the `--ui` option. So, if you want to build dupeGuru with Qt on OS X, then you have to type `python configure.py --ui=qt`. You can also use the `--dev` flag to indicate a dev build (it will build `dg_cocoa.plugin` in alias mode and use the "dev" config in XCode). Then, just build the thing and then run it with: python build.py python run.py If you want to create ready-to-upload package, run: python package.py 64-bit on OS X --- The "release" configuration of dupeGuru's XCode project build with archs "i386 x86_64 ppc". However there are currently problems with py2app and 64 bit. If you want to correctly build 64-bit apps, refer to http://www.hardcoded.net/articles/building-64-bit-pyobjc-applications-with-py2app.htm .
