Developing on GNU/Linux

Step 1: Install xmake and Qt 6

On Debian or Debian derivatives:

sudo apt install xmake

sudo apt update
sudo apt install --yes build-essential libfontconfig1-dev  qt6-base-dev libqt6svg6-dev qt6-image-formats-plugins libcurl4-openssl-dev libfreetype-dev libgit2-dev zlib1g-dev libssl-dev libjpeg-turbo8-dev cmake

Sometimes, we need the latest xrepo:

xrepo update-repo

Step 2: Build

xmake config --yes
xmake build stem

If Qt SDK is not found, we can config it manually:

xmake config --qt=/usr/lib/`arch`-linux-gnu/qt6/

To switch to Qt 5, just:

xmake config --qt=/usr/lib/`arch`-linux-gnu/qt5/

Step 3: Run tests

See How to test.

Step 4: Launch Mogan STEM

bash

xmake run stem

Use VSCode to help code completion

Install VSCode, Clangd and the Clangd plugin for VSCode. Then execute in the mogan folder

xmake project -k compile_commands

This will generate a compile_commands.json file under the mogan folder, and Clangd will read it to understand the organizational structure of the project, so as to avoid the error that the header file cannot be found.
