Developer Setup

1. Install latest git + git-lfs
2. Clone ScreenPlay

git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/kelteseth/ScreenPlay.git

3. Download the latest Qt 5.15. Earlier versions are not supported!
4. Start install-dependencies.bat to download dependencies into the Common/ folder

//Windows
.\install-dependencies.bat

//Linux
sudo apt install git gcc cmake build-essential libgl1-mesa-dev
chmod +x install-dependencies.sh
.\install-dependencies.sh

• This will install these dependencies via vcpkg

  • sentry-native
• Download these dependencies via git submodules
  • qt-google-analytics
• Download ffmpeg binaries

5. Follow the steps below for your OS.

6. Open the CMakeLists.txt via QtCreator. This can take some time until QtCreator parses all files!

7. Add CMake variables

   • Add CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE and VCPKG_TARGET_TRIPLET
     • Extras -> Tools -> Kits -> -> CMake Configuration -> Append this:
     • CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE:STRING=%{CurrentProject:Path}/Common/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake
     • VCPKG_TARGET_TRIPLET:STRING=x64-windows
     • or Linux: x64-linux MacOSX: x64-osx

8. Check if Ninja is selected
   • Extras -> Tools -> Kits -> -> CMakeGenerator -> Change to:
     • Generator: Ninja
     • Extra Generator: CodeBlocks
9. Save and close the settings.
10. Press build (the big green play button). This will compile the project and copy all necessary files into your Qt installation.
