License

Licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License version 3.0 terms.

Dependencies

Qt >= 5.4.0 with at least the following modules is required:

• qtbase
• qtdeclarative

The following modules and their dependencies are required:

• ECM >= 1.4.0
• glib >= 2.31.0

Build

Building this module is a piece of cake.

Assuming you are in the source directory, just create a build directory and run cmake:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/hawaii ..

To do a debug build the last command can be:

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/hawaii -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..

To do a release build instead it can be:

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/hawaii -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

If not passed, the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX parameter defaults to /usr/local. You have to specify a path that fits your needs, /opt/hawaii is just an example.

The CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE parameter allows the following values:

• Debug: debug build
• Release: release build
• RelWithDebInfo: release build with debugging information

System-wide installation

Those who want to perform a system-wide installation, such as package maintainers, should pass different arguments to cmake:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DKDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS=ON ..

Feel free to choose whatever CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE value you desire.

Installation

It's really easy, it's just a matter of typing:

make install

from the build directory.
