HowToBuild static lib for macOS

Deployment

PER_MACHINE_DIRECTORY="/Library/Application Support/pEp"
PER_USER_DIRECTORY=$HOME/.pEp

Required Tools

For building the engine, you need a working python3 environment and all dependencies:

sudo port install git
sudo port install gmake
sudo port install autoconf
sudo port install libtool
sudo port install automake
sudo port install wget
sudo port install capnproto

pushd ~
git clone https://gitea.pep.foundation/fdik/yml2
popd

curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

add this to ~/.profile (create if it doesn't exist):

source $HOME/.cargo/env
export PATH="$HOME/.cargo/bin:$PATH"

restart your Console (!)

sudo port install pkgconfig
rustup update

Install Xcode (if not installed already)

Apple IDs & Certificates

Apple ID

You need to have an Apple ID (connected to pEp team account) configured in Xcode . Ask #service, if you want to be added to the team account.

#TODO: weget and build libz too and link it to libetpan. Rm linking dynamic lib in client afterwards.

git clone https://github.com/fdik/libetpan
pushd libetpan
#ToDo: This is not working (afaics). libetpan is still using the systems dynamic iconv lib. I was unable yet to force libetpan to use libiconv.a

#BAD, required due to ios libetpan sub project. RM after moving out of project or even better being able to build macOS libetpan with the Xcode project

Build

iOS Only: Copy System DB

The system.db from the pEpEngine repository must be copied in the bundle that uses the pEpObjCAdapter.a static lib. The ObjCAdapter copies it at runtime in the desired directory.

Backround: Has been introduces to use Apple Shared App Directory of the client App.

Using Xcode UI

open pEpMacOSAdapter/pEpObjCAdapter.xcworkspace/

Build scheme "All" of pEpObjCAdapter.xcworkspace

Using terminal

xcodebuild -workspace "pEpObjCAdapter.xcworkspace" -scheme "PEPObjCAdapter_macOS" -configuration RELEASE

(or DEBUG)

Build Dir & Build Artefacts

You can find the build artefacts in the pEpMacOSAdapter/build folder
