# Building OnionShare

## GNU/Linux

Start by getting a copy of the source code:

```sh
git clone https://github.com/micahflee/onionshare.git
cd onionshare
```

*For .deb-based distros (like Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint):*

Note that python3-stem appears in Debian wheezy and newer, and it appears in Ubuntu 13.10 and newer. Older versions of Debian and Ubuntu aren't supported.

```sh
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential fakeroot python3-all python3-stdeb python3-flask python3-stem python3-pyqt5 dh-python
./install/build_deb.sh
sudo dpkg -i deb_dist/onionshare_*.deb
```
Note that OnionShare uses stdeb to generate Debian packages, and `python3-stdeb` is not available in Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty). Because of this, you can't use the `build_install.sh` script to build the .deb file in versions of Ubuntu 14.04 and earlier. However, .deb files you build in later versions of Ubuntu will install and work fine in 14.04.

*For .rpm-based distros (Red Hat, Fedora, CentOS):*

```sh
sudo yum install -y rpm-build python-flask python-stem pyqt4
./install/build_rpm.sh
sudo yum install -y dist/onionshare-*.rpm
```

*For ArchLinux:*

There is a PKBUILD available [here](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/onionshare/) that can be used to install onionshare

## Mac OS X

Install Xcode from the Mac App Store. Once it's installed, run it for the first time to set it up.

Install the [latest Python 3.x from python.org](https://www.python.org/downloads/). If you use the built-in version of python that comes with OS X, your .app might not run on other people's computers.

Download and install Qt5 from https://www.qt.io/download-open-source/. I downloaded `qt-unified-mac-x64-2.0.2-2-online.dmg`. There's no need to login to a Qt account during installation. Make sure you install the latest Qt 5.x for clang.

Download the source code for [SIP](http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/sip/download) and [PyQt](http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/download5). I downloaded `sip-4.17.tar.gz` and `PyQt-gpl-5.5.1.tar.gz`.

Now extract the source code:

```sh
tar xvf sip-4.17.tar.gz
tar xvf PyQt-gpl-5.5.1.tar.gz
```

Compile SIP:

```sh
cd sip-4.17
python3 configure.py --arch x86_64
make
sudo make install
sudo make clean
```

Compile PyQt:

```sh
cd ../PyQt-gpl-5.5.1
python3 configure.py --qmake ~/Qt/5.5/clang_64/bin/qmake --sip /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin/sip --disable=QtPositioning
make
sudo make install
sudo make clean
```

Finally, install some dependencies using pip3: `sudo pip3 install py2app flask stem`

Get the source code:

```sh
git clone https://github.com/micahflee/onionshare.git
cd onionshare
```

To build the .app:

```sh
install/build_osx.sh
```

Now you should have `dist/OnionShare.app`.

To codesign and build a .pkg for distribution:

```sh
install/build_osx.sh --sign
```

Now you should have `dist/OnionShare.pkg`.

## Windows

### Setting up your dev environment

* Download and install the latest python 2.7 from https://www.python.org/downloads/ -- make sure you install the 32-bit version.
* Go to Start and type "advanced system settings", and open "View advanced system settings" in the Control Panel. Click Environment Variables. Under "System variables" double-click on Path, and add `C:\Python27` and `C:\Python27\Scripts`. Now you can just type `python` to run python scripts in the command prompt.
* Go to https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/installing.html. Right-click on `get-pip.py` and Save Link As, and save it to your home folder.
* Open a command prompt and type: `python get-pip.py`. Now you can use `pip` to install packages.
* Open a command prompt and type: `pip install flask stem pyinstaller`
* Go to http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/download and download the latest PyQt4 for Windows for python 2.7, 32-bit (I downloaded `PyQt4-4.11-gpl-Py2.7-Qt4.8.6-x32.exe`), then install it.
* Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/ and download and install the latest 32-bit pywin32 binary for python 2.7. I downloaded `pywin32-219.win32-py2.7.exe`.
* Download and install the [Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)](http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29).

If you want to build the installer:

* Go to http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Download and download the latest NSIS. I downloaded `nsis-3.0b0-setup.exe`.
* Go to Start and type "advanced system settings", and open "View advanced system settings" in the Control Panel. Click Environment Variables. Under "System variables" double-click on Path, and add `C:\Program Files (x86)\NSIS` to the end. Now you can just type `makensis [script]` to build an installer.

If you want to sign binaries with Authenticode:

* You'll need a code signing certificate. I roughly followed [this guide](http://blog.assarbad.net/20110513/startssl-code-signing-certificate/) to make one using my StartSSL account.
* Once you get a code signing key and certificate and covert it to a pfx file, import it into your certificate store.
* Windows 7:
  * Go to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/aa496123 and install the latest .NET Framework. I installed `.NET Framework 4.6`.
  * Go to http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=8279 and install the Windows SDK.
  * Right click on Computer, go to Properties. Click "Advanced system settings". Click Environment Variables. Under "System variables" double-click on Path and add `C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Bin` to the end.
* Windows 10:
  * Go to https://dev.windows.com/en-us/downloads/windows-10-sdk and install the standalone Windows 10 SDK. Note that you may not need this if you already have Visual Studio.
  * Go to Start and type "advanced system settings", and open "View advanced system settings" in the Control Panel. Click Environment Variables. Under "System variables" double-click on Path, and add `C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\x86`.

### To make a .exe:

* Open a command prompt, cd into the onionshare directory, and type: `pyinstaller -y install\onionshare-win.spec`. Inside the `dist` folder there will be a folder called `onionshare` with `onionshare.exe` in it.

### To build the installer:

Note that you must have a codesigning certificate installed in order to use the `install\build_exe.bat` script, because it codesigns `onionshare.exe`, `uninstall.exe`, and `OnionShare_Setup.exe`.

Open a command prompt, cd to the onionshare directory, and type: `install\build_exe.bat`

This will prompt you to codesign three binaries and execute one unsigned binary. When you're done clicking through everything you will have `dist\OnionShare_Setup.exe`.

## Tests

OnionShare includes [nose](https://nose.readthedocs.org/en/latest/) unit tests. First,

```sh
sudo pip install nose
```

To run the tests:

```sh
nosetests test
```
