How do I build it ?

Prerequisites

• Visual Studio 2019 (Windows) with Desktop development with C++
• Clang C++ 17 compiler (clang-12 minimum)
  • on macOS Catalina/BigSpur, Apple Clang 12.0 is picked by default
• CMake 3.18 minimum CMake Download
• Python

Install Requirements

Install Qt Windows

# Could also be pip3 depending of your python installation
pip install aqtinstall
python -m aqt install -O C:\/Qt 5.15.2 windows desktop win64_msvc2019_64 -b https://qt-mirror.dannhauer.de/ -m qtcharts qtwidgets debug_info qtwebview qtwebengine

Install Qt Linux

# Could also be pip3 depending of your python installation
pip install aqtinstall
python3 -m aqt install -O $HOME/Qt 5.15.2 linux desktop -b https://qt-mirror.dannhauer.de/ -m qtcharts qtwidgets debug_info qtwebengine qtwebview

Install Qt MacOS

# Could also be pip3 depending of your python installation
pip install aqtinstall
python3 -m aqt install -O $HOME/Qt 5.15.2 mac desktop -b https://qt-mirror.dannhauer.de/ -m qtcharts qtwidgets debug_info qtwebview qtwebengine

Install Windows requirements

In your PowerShell (as ADMIN) execute:

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -scope CurrentUser
Invoke-Expression (New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://get.scoop.sh')
scoop install llvm --global
scoop install ninja --global
scoop install cmake --global
scoop install git --global
scoop install 7zip  --global

• Next, add a QT_INSTALL_CMAKE_PATH environment variable pointing to the msvc_2019x64 location
  e.g.: $Env:QT_INSTALL_CMAKE_PATH = "C:\Qt\5.15.0\msvc2019_64"
• Then, also add a QT_ROOT environment variable pointing to the Qt root folder location
  e.g.: $Env:QT_ROOT = "C:\Qt"
  
  We advice to set it permanently through the environment variable manager on windows

Install macOS requirements

Ensure you have brew and the macOS command line tools installed.

brew install autoconf \
             automake \
             libtool \
             pkgconfig \
             wget \
             ninja \

cd libwally-core
./tools/autogen.sh
./configure --disable-shared
sudo make -j2 install

Add the following environment variables to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc profile:

• QT_INSTALL_CMAKE_PATH wqual to the CMake QT path
• QT_ROOT equal to the QT root installation folder

## This also assume your certificates is already in your MacOS Keystore
export MAC_SIGN_IDENTITY="Developer ID Application: Satoshi Nakamoto (923YHAAKNY)"

## This is app deployment password that can be generate in your apple account profile
export APPLE_ATOMICDEX_PASSWORD="foo-bar-foo-bar"

## This is your apple id email
export APPLE_ID="satoshinakamoto@bitcoin.com"

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -GNinja ../
ninja install
