Checkout the source code
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/RetroShare/RetroShare.git retroshare
Checkout the submodules
cd retroshare
git submodule update --init --remote libbitdht/ libretroshare/ openpgpsdk/ retroshare-webui/
git submodule update --init --remote supportlibs/librnp supportlibs/restbed supportlibs/rapidjson
Compile
qmake CONFIG+=release CONFIG+=rs_jsonapi CONFIG+=rs_webui
make
The executable produced will be:
./retroshare-gui/src/retroshare
Install
sudo make install
The executable produced will be:
~/usr/bin/RetroShare
For packagers
Packagers can use PREFIX and LIB_DIR to customize the installation paths:
qmake PREFIX=/usr LIB_DIR=/usr/lib64 "CONFIG-=debug" "CONFIG+=release"
make
make INSTALL_ROOT=${PKGDIR} install
libsqlcipher
If libsqlcipher is not available as a package
You need to place sqlcipher so that the hierarchy is:
~Home
|
+--- retroshare
|
+--- lib
|
+---- sqlcipher
mkdir lib
cd lib
git clone https://github.com/sqlcipher/sqlcipher.git --depth=1 --branch v3.4.1
cd sqlcipher
./configure --enable-tempstore=yes CFLAGS="-DSQLITE_HAS_CODEC" LDFLAGS="-lcrypto"
make
cd ..
Build infos
Note: If you installed Qt6 you need to use qmake6 on the command line.
For the FeedReader it is required to append the config option CONFIG+=retroshare_plugins.
Make sure plugins/plugins.pro contains FeedReader in the list of plugins to compile.
Do not mix plugins compiled with Qt5 with those compiled with Qt6. They work only if they are compiled with the same Qt version as RetroShare.
Voip is outdated and is not compileable on the latest Debian.
For Autologin it is required to append the config option CONFIG+=rs_autologin.
Build options
- Mandatory
- release or debug: normally you would like to use the release option
- Extra features (optional)
- rs_autologin: enable autologin
- retroshare_plugins: build plugins
- rs_webui: enable Web interface
- rs_jsonapi: enable json api interface, required by rs_webui
- gxsthewire: enable Wire service (experimental)
- wikipoos: enable Wiki service (experimental)
- rs_use_native_dialogs: enable native dialogs (may cause crashes with some versions of Gtk)
- rs_deep_channels_index: build with deep channel indexing support
- rs_deep_files_index: build with deep file indexing support
- "CONFIG+=..." enable other extra compile time features, you can find the almost complete list in file <sourcefolder>\retroshare.pri
Examples:
qmake CONFIG+=debug CONFIG+=release CONFIG+=rs_use_native_dialog CONFIG+=rs_gui_cmark
qmake CONFIG+=rs_jsonapi CONFIG+=rs_webui CONFIG+=rs_autologin
