- 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.
