# Building YACReader from source
YACReader and YACReaderLibrary are build using qmake. To build and install the
program, run:
> qmake-qt5 CONFIG+=[Options]
> make
> make install
from the source dir. For seperate builds of YACReader or YACReaderLibrary,
enter their respective subfolders and run the commands from there.
The headless version of YACReaderLibrary is located in the YACReaderLibraryServer
folder. To build it, enter the folder and run the steps as described above.
## Build dependencies:
- Qt >= 5.3 with the following modules:
- declarative
- quickcontrols
- sql
- script
- multimedia
- imageformats
- opengl
- sql-sqlite
- network
- A pdf rendering backend (optional, see below)
- qrencode (optional)
- glu
- (lib)unarr (see below)
Please note that not all of these dependencies are needed at build time.
A good example for this is YACReaderLibrary's GridView mode which will
silently fail and only show a white page if the proper qml modules
(declarative, quickcontrols) are not missing.
## Backends
### Decompression
YACReader uses [(lib)unarr](https://github.com/selmf/unarr) for comic book
decompression. Most Linux distributions don't ship this library yet, so will
probably have to build it yourself.
We recommend using (lib)unarr as a shared library, but we also support static
and embedded builds. Please consult the [README](compressed_archive/unarr/README.txt)
for more information on this topic.
### PDF
Starting with version 9.0.0 YACReader supports the following pdf render engines:
- poppler (Linux default)
- pdfium (Default for Windows and MacOS)
- pdfkit (macOS only)
- no_pdf (disables pdf support)
To override the default for a given platform add CONFIG+=[pdfbackend] as an options
when running qmake.
While the Poppler backend is well tested and has been the standard for YACReader
for a long time, it's performance is a bit lacking. The pdfium engine offers
much better performance (about 10x faster on some pdf files we tested).
However, at the time of this writing, it is not a software that is available
prepackaged for Linux.
### Other build options:
You can adjust the installation prefix as well als the path make install uses
to install the files.
>qmake PREFIX=DIR
sets the default prefix (for example "/", "/usr", "/usr/local").
>make install INSTALL_ROOT=DIR
can be used to install to a different location, which is usefull for packaging.
Default values:
>PREFIX=/usr
>INSTALL_ROOT=""
On embedded devices that don't support desktop OpenGL, it is recommended to use
the no_opengl config option:
qmake-qt5 CONFIG+=no_opengl
This will remove any dependency on desktop OpenGL and hardlock YACReader's
coverflow to software rendering. Please note that it doesn't actually remove
OpenGL from the build, the Qt toolkit will still make use of it.
# Feedback and contribution
If you're compiling YACReader because there is no package available for your
Linux distribution please consider creating and submitting a package or filing a
package request.
While we do provide packages for .deb based distributions as well as an AUR
package for Archlinux, we are in need of packagers especially for RPM based
distributions. If you are interested, please contact @selmf on the YACReader
forums or write an email to info@yacreader.com
If you have already created a package please let us know so we can add it to
our downloads list ;)

COMPILATION GUIDE FOR LINUX/UNIX USERS
**************************************
YACReader and YACReaderLibrary are build using qmake. To build and install the program, run:
qmake-qt5 CONFIG+=[Options]
make
make install
from the source dir. For seperate builds of YACReader or YACReaderLibrary, enter their respective subfolders and run the commands from there.
The headless version of YACReaderLibrary is located in the YACReaderLibraryServer folder. To build it, enter the folder and run the steps as
described above.
Dependencies:
-------------
- Qt >= 5.3 with the following modules:
- declarative
- quickcontrols
- sql
- script
- multimedia
- imageformats
- opengl
- sql-sqlite
- network
- a pdf rendering backend, poppler-qt5 or pdfium (optional, see below)
- qrencode (optional)
- sqllite
- glu
- a decompression backend, either 7zip or unarr (see below)
Please note that not all of these dependencies are needed at build time. A good example for this is YACReaderLibrary's GridView mode which will
silently fail and only show a white page if the proper qml modules (declarative, quickcontrols) are not installed.
Decompression backend:
----------------------
YACReader supports two decompression backends:
- unarr
- p7zip=9.20.1
These can be selected at build time by adding either CONFIG+=unarr or CONFIG+=7zip as an option when running qmake.
If none of these is provided, the build system will default to unarr on Linux/Unix and [p]7zip on Windows and OS X.
The decompression backends have their own dependencies and require additional steps like downloading additional source code
for setup. Please consult the README files provided in the compressed_archive and compressed_archive/unarr folders for details.
If you chose to build YACReader with p7zip as a backend on Linux/Unix, please take notice that this backend has some problems:
- p7zip > 9.20.1 is not supported
- p7zip 9.20.1 has known bugs that are fixed only in the later versions
- a system update that replaces p7zip 9.20.1 with a later version will make YACReader unusable
If your system already ships with p7zip > 9.20.1 you can place 7z.so and the Codecs folder with the Rar29.so file from p7zip 9.20.1 in /usr/lib/yacreader
YACReader will check this folder first and can thus continue using 7zip as a backend with p7zip > 9.20.1 installed on your system.
Pdf backend:
------------
Starting with version 8.6.0 YACReader supports the following pdf render backends:
- poppler (Linux default)
- pdfium
- pdfkit (macOS only, macOS default)
- no_pdf (disables pdf support)
To select one of them just add CONFIG+=[backend] when running qmake.
While the Poppler backend is well-tested and has been the standard for YACReader for a long time, its performance is a bit lacking.
Pdfium, the pdf render engine developed by Google's Chromium project and used in the
Chrome browser, offers much better performance (about 10x as fast on some pdf files we tested).
However, at the time of this writing, it isn't easily available as an installable package and a bit challenging to build.
If you are interested in using this backend, you can find further informations on how to proceed in the dependencies subfolder.
Other build options:
--------------------
You can adjust the installation prefix as well als the path make install uses to install the files.
Use "qmake PREFIX=DIR" to configure YACReader for your systems default prefix (for example "/", "/usr", "/usr/local").
For packaging purposes, you can use "make install INSTALL_ROOT=DIR" to install to a different location than the prefix.
Default values:
PREFIX=/usr
INSTALL_ROOT=""
On embedded devices that don't support desktop OpenGL, it is recommended to use the no_opengl config option:
qmake-qt5 CONFIG+=no_opengl
This will remove any dependency on desktop OpenGL and hardlock YACReader's coverflow to software rendering. Please note that it
doesn't actually remove OpenGL from the build, the Qt toolkit will still make use of it.
