Build Status

Build nomacs (Windows)

Compile dependencies

  • Qt SDK or the compiled sources (>= 5.2.1)
  • Exiv2 (>= 0.25)
  • OpenCV (>= 2.4.6) optional
  • LibRaw (>= 0.17) optional
  • Python (>= 3.6) for build scripts

Compile LibRaw

  • only needed if ENABLE_RAW is checked
  • checkout https://github.com/nomacs/LibRaw
  • switch to 0.XX-stable branch
  • follow the build instructions
  • in the nomacs CMake, set libraw_DIR to that build path

Compile nomacs

  1. Open CMake GUI
  2. set your ImageLounge folder to where is the source code
  3. choose a build folder
  4. Set QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE by locating the qmake.exe
  5. Set OpenCV_DIR to your OpenCV build folder
  6. Hit Configurethen Generate
  7. Open the nomacs.sln which is in your new build directory
  8. Right-click the nomacs project and choose Set as StartUp Project
  9. Compile the Solution

If anything did not work

  • check if you have setup opencv (otherwise uncheck ENABLE_OPENCV)
  • check if your Qt is set correctly (otherwise set the path to qt_install_dir/qtbase/bin/qmake.exe)
  • check if your builds proceeded correctly

Build nomacs (Ubuntu)

Get the required packages:

sudo apt-get install debhelper cdbs qt5-qmake qttools5-dev-tools qt5-default qttools5-dev libqt5svg5-dev qt5-image-formats-plugins libexiv2-dev libraw-dev libopencv-dev cmake libtiff-dev libquazip-dev libwebp-dev git build-essential lcov libzip-dev

Get the nomacs sources from github:

git clone https://github.com/nomacs/nomacs.git

This will by default place the source into ~/nomacs

Go to the nomacs/ImageLounge directory and run cmake to get the Makefiles:

cmake .

Compile nomacs:

make

You will now have a binary (~/nomacs/nomacs), which you can test (or use directly). To install it to /usr/local/bin, use:

sudo make install

note that you have to execute

sudo ldconfig

on your own after a successfully install

For Package Maintainers

  • Set ENABLE_TRANSLATIONS to true (default: false)
  • Build all officially supported plugins

Build nomacs (OSX)

Install Homebrew for easier installation of depenedencies.

Install required dependencies:

$ brew install qt5 exiv2 opencv libraw quazip

Go to the nomacs directory and run cmake to get the Makefiles

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ Qt5_DIR=/usr/local/opt/qt5/ cmake -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE=/usr/local/opt/qt5/bin ../ImageLounge/.

Run make:

$ make

You will now have a binary (nomacs.app), which you can test (or use directly). To install it to /usr/local/bin, use

$ sudo make install
