(>= 3.6) for build scripts
- 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
- Open CMake GUI
- set your ImageLounge folder to
where is the source code
- choose a build folder
- Set
QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE
by locating the qmake.exe - Set
OpenCV_DIR
to your OpenCV build folder - Hit
Configure
thenGenerate
- Open the
nomacs.sln
which is in your new build directory - Right-click the nomacs project and choose
Set as StartUp Project
- Compile the Solution
- 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
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
- Set
ENABLE_TRANSLATIONS
totrue
(default:false
) - Build all officially supported plugins
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
