Stigmee compilation and continuous actions

Operating systems

Stigmee can be compiled for Linux, Windows >= 10 (and with the administration rights), and MacOS X. Stigmee is not yet functional for MacOS X. Stigmee is not supported for Windows 9 and older or Windows 10 without administration rights. In the future Stigmee is expected to run for Android and IOS devices. Your help is welcome!

For compiling Stigmee, you will need an operating system with > 2 Gb of RAM and

14 Gb of free disk space. The Stigmee binary once compiled is ~300 Mb on Linux (~100 Mb on Windows) your disk (plus the cache of visited pages) and need ~300 Mb of RAM when running (Linux).

Prerequisites to compile Stigmee

Step 1: Set the Stigmee environment variable

For any operating systems (Linux, MacOS X, Windows), you will need the environment variable WORKSPACE_STIGMEE set to the path of your workspace (the folder in which you will download all code source).

For Linux and MacOS X:

For Linux and MacOS X, you have this environment variable in your ~/.bashrc file (or any equivalent file), the environment variable $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE referring to the workspace folder for compiling Stigmee. It is used by our internal scripts:

export WORKSPACE_STIGMEE=/your/desired/path/for/workspace_stigmee

For Windows 10:

For Windows, you can either save this variable inside the "System Properties" as "Environment Variables" like depicted by the following figure:

Or set the path for the workspace every time you open a console (this is up to you!):

set WORKSPACE_STIGMEE c:\workspace_stigmee

Step 2: Install Python3 packages

Our build.py script is made in Python3 to be usable for any operating systems (Linux, MacOS X, Windows). Please do not use Python 2. To make the installation possible, you will have to install the following python3 modules:

# python3 -m pip install tsrc scons packaging pysftp urllib3 progressbar
python3 -m pip  install -r requirements.txt

scons is a Makefile made in Python and it is needed to compile Godot.
tsrc is needed to download all GitHub repos needed. First, please read and follow instruction depicted in this repository to install the tool that will help you to keep up-to-date the Stigmee workspace.
urllib3 and packaging are needed to download and unarchive some tarballs.
pysftp is optional and only needed for deploying releases our SFTP server.

Step 3: Install system packages

Install the following tools: g++, ninja, cmake (greater or equal to 3.21.0), rust (and Visual Studio for Windows).

For Linux, depending on your distribution you can use sudo apt-get install. To upgrade your cmake you can see this script.
For MacOS X you can install homebrew.
For Windows user you will have to install:
- Visual Studio: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/en/vs/ (mandatory)
- Python3: https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
- CMake: https://cmake.org/download/
- Ninja: https://ninja-build.org/
- Git: https://git-scm.com/download/win
- cURL: https://curl.se/windows/microsoft.html
- Rust: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install (For Windows users: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html install rustup-init.exe with administrator rights).

Still experimental: The Stigmee Python3 build script $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE/build.py, through the command line --install-packages, can install system packages needed to compile Stigmee. You will need sudo and apt-get install for Linux, homebrew for MacOs X ...

Step 4: Checkout your CMake version

On Debian, Ubuntu you probably have to compile and install by yourself a newer version of CMake needed to compile the Chromium Embedded Framework (>= 3.22). You can follow this bash script.

Step 5: Have a SSH connexion to GitHub

To download Stigmee workspace, we have set the manifest file for tsrc tool to use SSH connexion ot GitHub. A manifest is a file holding info such as git repos the project needs and where in the workspace to download them. For more information see this document.

If you still preferring using HTTPS, you can configure your git settings:

git config --global url."https://github".insteadOf git://github

See here for more information: https://ricostacruz.com/til/github-always-ssh (but it may conflicts with Rust when installing its own packages by git cloning).

Download Stigmee workspace

For more information on how to keep your workspace up-to-date see this document. To initialize the workspace for Stigmee for the first time, you will have to type:

For Linux and MacOS X:

mkdir $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE
cd $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE
tsrc --color=never --verbose init git@github.com:stigmee/manifest.git
tsrc --color=never --verbose sync

For Windows 10:

Mandatory: You shall to use x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2022 (installed when you have installed Visual Studio 2022) with administrator permissions to allow the creation of aliases!

mkdir %WORKSPACE_STIGMEE%
cd %WORKSPACE_STIGMEE%
tsrc --color=never --verbose init git@github.com:stigmee/manifest.git
tsrc --color=never --verbose sync

This will setup the appropriate subfolder structures for all Stigmee modules, which is mandatory in order to use the below scripts. If everything is working well, you will have the following workspace for Stigmee (may change):

📦workspace_stigmee
 ┣ 📂stigmee             ➡️ Main Stigmee project

Compile Stigmee for Unix systems

Straight method

To compile Stigmee for Linux (BSD untested) and MacOS X, either in release mode:

export $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE=<workspace_home>
cd $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE
./build.py

Or in debug mode:

export $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE=<workspace_home>
cd $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE
./build.py --debug

Once done, Stigmee binary is present in the $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE/stigmee/build/ folder (for example for Linux Stigmee.x11.debug.64).

Note: If the build.py fails by indicating it does not know to access to from helper import * please check:

if build.py is an alias (Windows user shall have administrator rights).
Call build.py from the folder $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE/packages/install.

Note: This command will also compile locally a Godot editor (version 3.4.3-stable) and use it. Used it to develop the Stigmee application and to export (aka compiling) Stigmee binaries.

Workaround: For Linux, for the moment, Stigmee does not find correctly the libcef.so while indicated in the gdnlib file. So for the moment:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$WORKSPACE_STIGMEE/stigmee/build

With Dockerfile (experimental)

You can compile Stigmee through a Docker. See this document.

Compile Stigmee for Windows

To compile Stigmee for Windows:

Ensure VS2022 is installed
Open an x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2022, with Administrator privilege (this should be available in the start menu under Visual Studio 2022). This ensures the environment is correctly set to use the VS tools.
Run the below commands from this command line :

set WORKSPACE_STIGMEE=<workspace_home>
cd %WORKSPACE_STIGMEE%
build.py

Note: The following files are only used for the Windows build: libcef_dll_wrapper_cmake and cef_variables_cmake. The build script installs the compiled libraries into both the build directory (for final executable run) and the Godot editor directory (mandatory for running CEF from a development project). Also not that for the moment, the final Stigmee executable is not generated (this will be included soon)

Update your workspace to be synchronized with your coworkers latest changes

This section is for Stigmee developers. Simply, go in any folder in your workspace and type:

cd $WORKSPACE_STIGMEE
tsrc sync

Bash script helper

This section is for Stigmee developers. Here is a small utility to help initializing or synchronizing your Stigmee workspace for Unix. You can add it in your ~/.bashrc file.

export WORKSPACE_STIGMEE=/your/desired/path/for/workspace_stigmee
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$WORKSPACE_STIGMEE/stigmee/build

function update_stigmee()
{
    if [ "$WORKSPACE_STIGMEE" == "" ]; then
        echo "Please export WORKSPACE_STIGMEE to refer to your desired folder."
        echo "The save the export command in your .bashrc file"
        exit 1
    fi

    if [ -d "$WORKSPACE_STIGMEE/.tsrc" ]; then
        cd "$WORKSPACE_STIGMEE"
        tsrc sync
    else
        mkdir -p "$WORKSPACE_STIGMEE" || exit 1
        cd "$WORKSPACE_STIGMEE"
        tsrc --verbose init git@github.com:stigmee/manifest.git
        tsrc sync
    fi

    ./build.py
}

build.py command line

The ./build.py have command line. You can type ./build.py -h to show the help.
