Quick Build Steps for NetSurf 24 February 2015
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This document provides steps for building NetSurf.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Grab a temporary env.sh
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
$ wget http://git.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/plain/Docs/env.sh
|
|
$ source env.sh
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install any packages you need
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Installs all packages required to build NetSurf and the NetSurf project
|
|
libraries.
|
|
|
|
$ ns-package-install
|
|
|
|
If your package manager is not supported, you will have to install third
|
|
party packages manually.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get the NetSurf project source code from Git
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
$ ns-clone
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build and install our project libraries
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Updates NetSurf project library sources to latest, builds and installs them.
|
|
|
|
$ ns-pull-install
|
|
|
|
|
|
Switch to new NetSurf workspace
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
$ rm env.sh
|
|
$ cd ~/dev-netsurf/workspace
|
|
$ source env.sh
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build and run NetSurf
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
$ cd netsurf
|
|
|
|
To build the native front end (the GTK front end on Linux, BSDs, etc) you
|
|
could do:
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ ./nsgtk
|
|
|
|
To build the framebuffer front end, you could do:
|
|
|
|
$ make TARGET=framebuffer
|
|
$ ./nsfb
|
|
|
|
|
|
Cross Compiling
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
If you are cross compiling, you can follow the above steps, but when sourcing
|
|
env.sh, you should set TARGET_ABI to the appropriate triplet for your cross
|
|
compiler. For example, to cross compile for RISC OS:
|
|
|
|
$ TARGET_ABI=arm-unknown-riscos source env.sh
|
|
|
|
After that, the commands such as `ns-package-install` and `ns-pull-install`
|
|
will do what is appropriate for the platform you are building for.
|
|
|
|
To do the final build of NetSurf, pass the appropriate TARGET to make. For
|
|
example, to cross compile for RISC OS:
|
|
|
|
$ make TARGET=riscos
|
|
|
|
Finally, you can package up your build to transfer to the system you are
|
|
developing for. For example, to produce a package for RISC OS:
|
|
|
|
$ make TARGET=riscos package
|
|
|
|
Getting a cross compiler set up
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
We maintain cross compilation environments and an SDK for a number of
|
|
platforms. These may be found in our toolchains repository.
|
|
|
|
$ git clone git://git.netsurf-browser.org/toolchains
|
|
|
|
Pre-built versions of the toolchains for Debian systems are often available
|
|
via our automated build and test infrastructure:
|
|
|
|
http://ci.netsurf-browser.org/builds/toolchains/
|
|
|
|
|
|
Not working?
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
If the above steps are inapplicable, or don't work, you can build manually.
|
|
Follow the instructions in the BUILDING-* documents in the Docs/ directory
|
|
the NetSurf browser source tree.
