### :hammer_and_wrench: How to compile the desktop client
|
|
|
|
:building_construction: [System requirements](https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/wiki/System-requirements-for-compiling-the-desktop-client) includes OpenSSL 1.1.x, QtKeychain, Qt 5.x.x and zlib.
|
|
|
|
#### :memo: Step by step instructions
|
|
|
|
##### Clone the repo and create build directory
|
|
```
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop.git
|
|
$ cd desktop
|
|
$ mkdir build
|
|
$ cd build
|
|
```
|
|
##### Compile and install
|
|
|
|
:warning: For development reasons it is better to **install the client on user space** instead on the global system. Mixing up libs/dll's of different version can lead to undefined behavior and crashes:
|
|
|
|
* You could use the **cmake flag** ```CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX``` as ```~/.local/``` in a **Linux** system. If you want to install system wide you could use ```/usr/local``` or ```/opt/nextcloud/```.
|
|
|
|
* On **Windows 10** [```$USERPROFILE```](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/usmt/usmt-recognized-environment-variables#a-href-idbkmk-2avariables-that-are-recognized-only-in-the-user-context) refers to ```C:\Users\<USERNAME>```.
|
|
|
|
##### Linux & Mac OS
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/nextcloud-desktop-client -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
|
|
$ make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### Windows
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$USERPROFILE\nextcloud-desktop-client -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
|
|
$ cmake --build . --config Debug --target install
|
|
```
|
|

## :v: Code of conduct
|
|
|
|
The Nextcloud community has core values that are shared between all members during conferences, hackweeks and on all interactions in online platforms including [Github](https://github.com/nextcloud) and [Forums](https://help.nextcloud.com). If you contribute, participate or interact with this community, please respect [our shared values](https://nextcloud.com/code-of-conduct/). :relieved:

|
## :memo: Source code
|
|
|
|
The Nextcloud Desktop Client is developed in Git. Since Git makes it easy to
|
|
fork and improve the source code and to adapt it to your need, many copies
|
|
can be found on the Internet, in particular on GitHub. However, the
|
|
authoritative repository maintained by the developers is located at
|
|
https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop.
