On Linux, install the development packages for FreeType,
|
2015-10-19 18:32:12 +00:00
|
|
|
Cairo, and GLib. For example, on Ubuntu / Debian, you would do:
|
2018-01-02 17:15:18 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2020-07-06 12:17:50 +00:00
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install meson pkg-config ragel gtk-doc-tools gcc g++ libfreetype6-dev libglib2.0-dev libcairo2-dev
|
2015-10-19 18:32:12 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
whereas on Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, and other Red Hat based systems you would do:
|
2018-01-02 17:15:18 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2020-07-06 12:17:50 +00:00
|
|
|
sudo dnf install meson pkgconfig gtk-doc gcc gcc-c++ freetype-devel glib2-devel cairo-dev
|
2015-10-19 18:32:12 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2020-07-06 12:17:50 +00:00
|
|
|
and on ArchLinux and Manjaro:
|
2017-10-12 08:41:47 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2020-07-06 12:17:50 +00:00
|
|
|
sudo pacman -Suy meson pkg-config ragel gcc freetype2 glib2 cairo
|
2018-01-02 17:15:18 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2020-07-06 12:17:50 +00:00
|
|
|
then use meson to build the project like `meson build && meson test -Cbuild`.
|

|

|
|
|
On macOS, `brew install pkg-config ragel gtk-doc freetype glib cairo meson` then use
|
|
|
|
|
meson like above.
|

|
|
|
On Windows, meson can build the project like above if a working MSVC's cl.exe (`vcvarsall.bat`)
|
|
|
|
|
or gcc/clang is already on your path, and if you use something like `meson build --wrap-mode=default`
|
|
|
|
|
it fetches and compiles most of the dependencies also.

|
|
|
There is also amalgam source provided with HarfBuzz which reduces whole process of building
|
|
|
|
|
HarfBuzz like `g++ src/harfbuzz.cc -fno-exceptions` but there is not guarantee provided
|
|
|
|
|
with buildability and reliability of features you get.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our CI is also good source of learning how to build HarfBuzz.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Linux packagers are advised to at least use `--buildtype=release` (or any other way
|
|
|
|
|
to enable regular compiler optimization) and `-Dauto_features=enabled --wrap-mode=nodownload`
|
2020-07-06 12:34:54 +00:00
|
|
|
and install any other needed packages (most distributions build harfbuzz with
|
2020-07-06 17:10:19 +00:00
|
|
|
graphite support which needs to be enabled separately, `-Dgraphite=enabled`),
|
2020-07-06 12:34:54 +00:00
|
|
|
and follow other best practices of packaging a meson project.
