| ''Craft'' is a tool to build the sources and its third-party requirements. It is the '''easy''' way to build software.

| == Setting up craft ==
| |
| === Installing python ===
| |
| While Craft is capable of installing a embedded Python version sufficient for most packages, we recommend a full installation of Python. The current version is 3.6. [https://www.python.org/downloads/ Download Python 3.6+]
| |
| | |
| === Setting up a powershell ===
| |
| Powershell is required to be at least version 5.0.
| |
| If you're running Windows 10 you most probably won't need to update Powershell.
| |
| | |
| You can check the version with <tt>$PSVersionTable.PSVersion</tt> .
| |
| | |
| [https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=50395 Download Powershell]
| |
| | |
| === Setting up a compiler ===
| |
| Currently Craft supports both the MinGW and Microsoft Visual Studio (msvc) compiler.
| |
| While MinGW can be installed by Craft, [https://www.visualstudio.com/ Visual Studio] must be installed independently by the user.
| |
| | |
| === Direct X SDK ===
| |
| If you are using the MinGW compiler, in order to compile the Qt5 ''qtbase'' package you will also need to install the [https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6812 Microsoft DirectX SDK]. Make sure to open a new command line window after the installation for the environment variables to be set.
| |
| | |
| === Installing Craft===
| |
| * Start a powershell environment.
| |
| * Allow execution of powershell scripts.
| |
| Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSigned
| |
| * Install Craft and folow the instructions

| |
| | |
| == Using Craft ==
| |
| To use Craft you need to start a Powershell window, point that to <tt>KDEROOT\craft </tt> and run the initalization script. For example:
| |
| | |
| C:\KDEROOT\craft\craftenv.ps1
| |
| | |
| This tells Craft about your environment settings (e.g. paths). It will load your configuration from <tt>KDEROOT\etc\kdesettings.ini</tt>. If there are any error messages Craft will not work as expected. The output should look similar to this one (of course with your paths):
| |
| | |
| PS C:\kderoot\craft>.\craftenv.ps1
| |
| Craft Root : C:\CraftRoot
| |
| Craft : R:\
| |
| Version : master
| |
| ABI : windows-msvc2017_64-cl
| |
| Svn directory : C:\CraftRoot\download\svn
| |
| Git directory : Q:\

| Download directory : C:\CraftRoot\download
| |
| | |
| ==Using Craft with Qt Creator==
| |
| To compile from within Qt Creator, I need to set up a kit.
| |
| This is an example for mingw64.
| |
| * Add a cmake if none is set: R:\dev-utils\cmake\bin\cmake.exe
| |
| * Add a debugger: R:\mingw64\bin\gdb.exe
| |
| * Add a C++ compiler and a C compiler. Both: R:\mingw64\bin\gcc.exe
| |
| ** Ensure that the ABI is correctly set
| |
| * Add a Qt: R:\bin\qmake.exe
| |
| * Add a kit with all of the above
| |
| * Use the kit on a project
