Running

• Get a binary from one of the links below
  • For Linux systems
  • For Windows systems
  • For macOS systems
• Note: you might need to mark the binary as executable on macOS and Linux systems.

Building

• Clone the repo, and switch the working directory to it: git clone https://github.com/harmony-development/loqui.git && cd loqui
• To build and run the project with debug info / checks use cargo run. Use cargo run --release for an optimized release build.

Requirements

• Rust toolchain specified in the rust-toolchain.toml file. This will be managed for you automatically if you have rustup setup.
• gcc, python3, pkg-config, cmake; protobuf, protoc, openssl, x11, xcb, freetype, fontconfig, expat, glib, gtk3, cairo, pango, atk, gdk_pixbuf libraries and development files.
• Above list may be incomplete, please find out what you need by looking at compiler errors.

Nix

• nix develop to get a dev shell. (or nix-shell nix/shell.nix if you don't have flakes enabled)
• nix build .#loqui-debug to compile a debug build.
• nix build .#loqui to compile a release build.
• If you don't have flakes enabled, nix-build will give you a release build.

Installing

Nix

• For flakes: nix profile install github:harmony-development/loqui
• For non-flakes: nix-env -i -f "https://github.com/harmony-development/loqui/tarball/master"
