Windows Installer
We use msys2 for creating the Windows installer and development on Windows.
Development
Download msys2 (msys2-x86_64-xxx.exe) and follow the install instructions on the msys2 startpage (Important!)
- Fork the master branch on dev.gajim.org
- Execute
C:\msys64\msys2_shell.cmd -mingw64
- Run
pacman -S git
to install git - Run
git clone https://dev.gajim.org/USERNAME/gajim.git
- Run
cd gajim/win
to end up where this README exists. - Execute
./dev_env.sh
to install all the needed dependencies. - Now go to the git root dir
cd ..
- Launch Gajim
./launch.py
Build Gajim / Creating an Installer
Follow the steps in the Development section, but instead of ./dev_env.sh
execute ./build.sh
.
You can supply a git tag ./build.sh [git-tag]
.
Or dont supply it, then current HEAD is build.
Both the installer and the portable installer should appear in C:\msys64\home\USER\gajim\win\_build_root
.
