Compilation information

In order to compile the project you will need to follow the instructions depending on your system:

• Mac OS
• Linux (coming soon)
• Windows

The project uses Qt 5.5.1 available here: http://www.qt.io/download/

Mac Os:

You need to have Mac Os 10.8+ installed to make Joker work on your computer. We also recommand you the 5.3.x Qt version.

Xcode

You need to have Xcode installed and the command line tools to compile on Mac Os using Qt.

Homebrew

Homebrew is a very powerful package installer. Let's install it:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"

The dependencies:

You can install the dependencies automatically or manually:

Automatic installation

Just run the bootstrap script:

./scripts/bootstrap.sh

Manual install

You can install most of the dependencies via brew:

brew install libav portaudio libltc

brew install ffmpeg --with-fdk-aac --with-ffplay --with-freetype --with-frei0r --with-libass --with-libcaca --with-libvo-aacenc --with-libvorbis --with-libvpx --with-openjpeg --with-openssl --with-opus --with-rtmpdump --with-schroedinger --with-speex --with-speex --with-theora --with-tools

Linux:

Just run the bootstrap script:

./scripts/bootstrap.sh

Windows:

FFMPEG

There is a Windows build of the FFMPEG library here: http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/

Download the shared and dev 32 bits library:

• http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win32/shared/ffmpeg-20140222-git-44b22bb-win32-shared.7z
• http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win32/dev/ffmpeg-20140222-git-44b22bb-win32-dev.7z

Extract it with 7zip in the folder of your choice and set the following environment variable:

• FFMPEG_DEV_PATH
• FFMPEG_SHARED_PATH

Portaudio

Download portaudio precompiled library here: https://github.com/adfernandes/precompiled-portaudio-windows

Extract it with 7zip in the folder of your choice and set the following environment variable:

• PORTAUDIO_PATH

libltc

Download libltc source code from: https://github.com/x42/libltc/releases/download/v1.1.4/libltc-1.1.4.tar.gz

Extract it with 7zip in the folder of your choice. Create the following environment variable pointing to the src subfolder:

• LTC_PATH

Innosetup

Innosetup is required to build an installer for the release version of Joker. If you do not want to install Innosetup, choose to build the debug version in Qt Creator. Otherwise, download it from: http://www.jrsoftware.org/isdl.php

Add Innosetup installation folder to the PATH environment variable.

Qt

Download a Qt installer for Windows built against MinGW and for OpenGL here: http://qt-project.org/downloads

(MinGW and OpenGL is the only working combination, because Joker uses C++ constructs that are not available in Visual Studio, and OpenGL objects that are not available in Angle.)

Install to the folder of your choice.

Then use Qt Creator to open and build the Joker project app.pro.

Note that you can set all the required environment variables described above directly in the project settings inside Qt Creator.
