cura-build

This repository contains build scripts used to build Cura and all dependencies from scratch.

OS X

1. Install CMake (available via homebrew or cmake.org)
2. Install latest version of Xcode.
3. On Mac OS X > 10.10, execute command: brew link openssl --force
4. Because Fortran is necessary: brew install gcc
5. Run these commands:

git clone git@github.com:Ultimaker/cura-build.git
cd cura-build
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Windows

On Windows, the following dependencies are needed for building:

• git for windows (https://git-for-windows.github.io/) The git command should be available on your %PATH%. Make sure that the cmd directory in the git for windows installation directory is on the %PATH% and not its bin directory, otherwise mingw32 will complain about sh.exe being on the path.
• CMake (http://www.cmake.org/) Once CMake is installed make sure it is available on your %PATH%. Check this by running cmake --version in the Windows console.
• MinGW-W64 >= 5.3.0 (http://mingw-w64.org/doku.php) Once installed, its bin directory should be available on your %PATH%. Test this by running mingw32-make --version in the Windows console.
• Python 3.5 (http://python.org/, note that the version "3.5" is hardcoded across this project)
• NumPy (http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#numpy) You'll need to download a .whl from this site for Python 3.5 and install it via pip install <your_whl_file>.whl.
• SciPy (http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#scipy) You'll need to download a .whl from this site for Python 3.5 and install it via pip install <your_whl_file>.whl.
• PySerial from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyserial/3.2.1 It can be easyly installed via pip3 install pyserial
• PyQt5 from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyQt5/5.7 It can be easyly installed via pip3 install PyQt5
• SIP from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/SIP/4.18.1 It can be easyly installed via pip3 install sip
• Zeroconf from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zeroconf/0.17.6 It can be easyly installed via pip3 install zeroconf
• NumPy-STL from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/numpy-stl/2.0.0 It can be easyly installed via pip3 install numpy-stl
• Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 (community edition): Install Programming languages: Visual c++ (all), Python Tools for Visual Studio (Nov 2015) Windows & Web Development: Universal Windows App Development Tools (Tools 1.2 & windows 10 SDK-10/0/10586; Windows 10 SDK -10.0.10240)
• cx_Freeze (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cx_Freeze) The easiest way to install this is to use a wheel (*.whl file) and install it via pip install <your_whl_file>.whl. You may have to add <python dir>/Scripts to you %PATH%. (Last tested version was: cx_Freeze-5.0-cp35-cp35m-win_amd64.whl)
• NSIS 3 (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page) for creating the installer. Additional NSIS scripts are shipped with this project.

Make sure these dependencies are available from your path.

Additionally, for 32-bit builds:

• Perl (http://www.activestate.com/activeperl, Required to build Qt)
• Create in the user directory a file named pydistutils.cfg with the following contents:

[build]
compiler=mingw32

For 64-bit builds:

• PyQt 5.4 (https://riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/download5, Building PyQt currently fails using MinGW 64-bit)
• Install protobuf.wheel found in cura-build-binaries (TODO: create cura-build-binaries repo)
• Create empty __init__.py in c:\Python34\Lib\site-packages\google (TODO: make it part of the proto.wheel installation)

REM 32-bit
git clone git@github.com:Ultimaker/cura-build.git
cd cura-build
mkdir build
cd build
..\env_win32.bat
cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" ..
mingw32-make
mingw32-make package

REM 64-bit
git clone git@github.com:Ultimaker/cura-build.git
cd cura-build
mkdir build
cd build
..\env_win64.bat
cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" -DBUILD_64BIT:BOOL=ON ..
mingw32-make
mingw32-make package

Before make package - copy arduino to cura-build/

Ubuntu/Linux
