CMake Utils

This directory holds scripts to help the porting process from qmake to cmake for Qt6.

If you're looking to port your own Qt-based project from qmake to cmake, please use qmake2cmake.

Requirements

Python 3.7,
pipenv or pip to manage the modules.

Python modules

Since Python has many ways of handling projects, you have a couple of options to install the dependencies of the scripts:

Using `pipenv`

The dependencies are specified on the Pipfile, so you just need to run pipenv install and that will automatically create a virtual environment that you can activate with a pipenv shell.

Using `pip`

It's highly recommended to use a virtualenvironment to avoid conflict with other packages that are already installed: pip install virtualenv.

Create an environment: virtualenv env,
Activate the environment: source env/bin/activate (on Windows: source env\Scripts\activate.bat)
Install the requirements: pip install -r requirements.txt

If the pip install command above doesn't work, try:

python3.7 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Contributing to the scripts

You can verify if the styling of a script is compliant with PEP8, with a couple of exceptions:

Install flake8 (pip install flake8) and run it on all python source files:

make flake8

You can also modify the file with an automatic formatter, like black (pip install black), and execute it:

make format
