Building OnionShare
GNU/Linux
Start by getting a copy of the source code:
git clone https://github.com/micahflee/onionshare.git
cd onionshare
For .deb-based distros (like Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint):
Note that python-stem appears in Debian wheezy and newer (so by extension Tails 1.1 and newer), and it appears in Ubuntu 13.10 and newer. Older versions of Debian and Ubuntu aren't supported.
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential fakeroot python-all python-stdeb python-flask python-stem python-qt4
./build_deb.sh
sudo dpkg -i deb_dist/onionshare_*.deb
For .rpm-based distros (Red Hat, Fedora, CentOS):
sudo yum install -y rpm-build python-flask python-stem pyqt4
./build_rpm.sh
sudo yum install -y dist/onionshare-*.rpm
Mac OS X
To install the right dependencies, you need homebrew and pip installed on your Mac. Follow instructions at http://brew.sh/ to install homebrew, and run sudo easy_install pip
to install pip.
The first time you're setting up your dev environment:
git clone https://github.com/micahflee/onionshare.git
cd onionshare
echo export PYTHONPATH=\$PYTHONPATH:/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ >> ~/.profile
source ~/.profile
brew install qt4 pyqt
sudo pip install virtualenv
virtualenv env
. env/bin/activate
pip install flask stem pyinstaller
Each time you start work:
. env/bin/activate
To build the .app:
pyinstaller -w -y setup/onionshare-osx.spec
Now you should have dist/OnionShare.app
.
To build a .dmg (this script builds the .app for you):
./build_dmg.sh
Now you should have dist/OnionShare.dmg
.
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.
- Right click on Computer, go to Properties. Click "Advanced system settings". Click Environment Variables. Under "System variables" double-click on Path to edit it. Add
;C:\Python27;C:\Python27\Scripts
to the end. Now you can just typepython
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
cmd.exe
as an administrator. Type:python get-pip.py
. Now you can usepip
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).
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
. - Right click on Computer, go to Properties. Click "Advanced system settings". Click Environment Variables. Under "System variables" double-click on Path to edit it. Add
;C:\Program Files (x86)\NSIS
to the end. Now you can just typemakensisw [script]
to build an installer.
If you want to sign binaries with Authenticode:
- Go to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/aa496123 and install the latest .NET Framework. I installed
.NET Framework 4.5.1
. - 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 to edit it. Add
;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Bin
to the end. - You'll also, of course, need a code signing certificate. I roughly followed this guide 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.
To make a .exe:
- Open a command prompt, cd into the onionshare directory, and type:
pyinstaller -y setup\onionshare-win.spec
. Inside thedist
folder there will be a folder calledonionshare
withonionshare.exe
in it.
To build the installer:
Note that you must have a code signing certificate installed in order to use the build_exe.bat
script, because it tries code signing both onionshare.exe
and OnionShare_Setup.exe
.
Open a command prompt, cd to the onionshare directory, and type: build_exe.bat
A NSIS window will pop up, and once it's done you will have dist\OnionShare_Setup.exe
.
Tests
OnionShare includes nose unit tests. First,
sudo pip install nose
To run the tests:
nosetests test
