Note

Important: This project was archived by the original autors and maintainers of Sourcetrail by the end of 2021. If you want to know more about this decision, read more in the original README.md

This is a fork of the Sourcetrail project and I want to keep this project at least buildable.

Building

There are 2 ways to build the project:

  1. With vcpkg provided packages (Vcpkg build)
  2. With the system provided packages (System build)

Cloning

It is important to clone the repository with the submodules and the symlinks:

git clone https://github.com/petermost/Sourcetrail.git --recurse-submodules --config core.symlinks=true

and get the updates with:

git pull --recurse-submodules

Vcpkg Build

Depending on the platform and the selected indexer, additional software/packages must be installed.

Prepare the build in a terminal or command prompt ("x64 Native Tools Command Prompt"):

$ cd Sourcetrail
$ cmake --preset vcpkg-ninja-release

Note that the initial compilation of the vcpkg packages (especially LLVM) will take a long time!

Tip

Download a binary release.

Build:

$ cd ../build/vcpkg-ninja-release
$ cmake --build .

System build

Linux

To compile it under (K)ubuntu 24.10, "Oracular Oriole", install the following packages:

General packages: cmake, ninja-build, libboost1.83-all-dev, qt6-base-dev, qt6-svg-dev, libsqlite3-dev, libtinyxml-dev

C++ packages: clang-19, libclang-19-dev

Java packages: maven, openjdk-23-jdk

Unit test packages: catch2, libgtest-dev

Prepare the build:

$ cd Sourcetrail
$ cmake --preset system-ninja-release

Build:

$ cd ../build/system-ninja-release
$ cmake --build .

Windows

System build is not tested and therefore not supported.
