Building Manually

Parabolic uses vcpkg to manage its dependencies and cmake as its build system.

Ensure both vcpkg and cmake are installed on your system before building.

A C++20 compiler is also required to build Parabolic.

Configuring vcpkg

1. Set the VCPKG_ROOT environment variable to the path of your vcpkg installation's root directory.

Windows

1. Set the VCPKG_DEFAULT_TRIPLET environment variable to x64-windows
2. Run vcpkg install boost-date-time gtest libnick qtbase qtsvg qttools

Linux (GNOME)

1. Set the VCPKG_DEFAULT_TRIPLET environment variable to x64-linux
2. Run vcpkg install boost-date-time gtest libnick libxmlpp

Linux (QT)

1. Set the VCPKG_DEFAULT_TRIPLET environment variable to x64-linux
2. Run vcpkg install boost-date-time gtest libnick qtbase qtsvg qttools

Building

1. First, clone/download the repo.
2. Open a terminal and navigate to the repo's root directory.
3. Create a new build directory and cd into it.

Windows

1. From the build folder, run cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 17 2022".
2. From the build folder, run cmake --build . --config Release.
3. After these commands complete, Parabolic will be successfully built and its binaries can be found in the org.nickvision.tubeconverter.qt/Release folder of the build folder.

Linux (GNOME)
