| − | ==Building and installing==
| |
| − | ===Linux===
| |
| − | *Build the core Stellarium code according to the [[Compilation on Linux]] page. Make sure the build sub-directory is called ''builds/unix''.
| |
| − | *Set the environment variable STELROOT to be the path of the stellarium source tree, for example:
| |
| − | export STELROOT=/home/bob/stellarium
| |
| − | *Change to where you have the plugin source code installed, make a sub-directory ''builds/unix'' and change into it.
| |
| − | cd /home/bob/stel-plugins/PluginName
| |
| − | mkdir -p builds/unix
| |
| − | cd builds/unix
| |
| − | *Run cmake, specifying the build type to be the same as that which was used to build the core code (Debug or Release). Then run make
| |
| − | cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ../..
| |
| − | make
| |
| − | *To install, just do:
| |
| − | make install
| |
| − | This will put the files for the plugin in ''~/.stellarium/modules/PluginName''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ===Windows===
| |
| − | *Build the core Stellarium code according to the [[Windows Build Instructions]] page. Make sure the build sub-directory is called ''builds/msys''.
| |
| − | *Set the environment variable STELROOT to be the path of the stellarium source tree, for example:
| |
| − | export STELROOT=/c/msys/1.0/home/bob/stellarium
| |
| − | *Change to where you have the plugin source code installed, make a sub-directory ''builds/msys'' and change into it.
| |
| − | cd /c/msys/1.0/home/bob/stel-plugins
| |
| − | mkdir -p builds/msys
| |
| − | cd builds/msys
| |
| − | *Run cmake, specifying the build type to be the same as that which was used to build the core code (Debug or Release). Then run make
| |
| − | cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ../..
| |
| − | make
| |
| − | *Several of the plugins have a file called "installer.iss" in the main plugin directory. This can be used with the INNO installer generator to generate a windows installer for the plugin.
