Preparing the source tree

If you just cloned the git repository, make sure you also cloned the submodules, which you can do using:

$ git submodule update --init

Building

Build dependencies

The required build dependencies are: (devel packages of these)

  • qtpy
  • PyQt5 or PyQt6
  • Qt5 dev tools or Qt6 dev tools
  • qtchooser

On Debian and Ubuntu, use these commands as root to install all build dependencies:

  • for Qt5 build:

$ [sudo] apt-get install python3-qtpy python3-pyqt5 pyqt5-dev-tools qtchooser qttools5-dev-tools

  • for Qt6 build:

$ [sudo] apt-get install python3-qtpy python3-pyqt6 pyqt6-dev-tools qtchooser

To build RaySession, simply run as usual:

$ make

if you prefer to build it with Qt6:

$ QT_VERSION=6 make

Depending of the distribution you might need to use the LRELEASE variable to build. If you don't have 'lrelease' executable but 'lrelease-qt5' use:

$ make LRELEASE=lrelease-qt5

Installing

To install RaySession, simply run as usual:

$ [sudo] make install

Packagers can make use of the 'PREFIX' and 'DESTDIR' variable during install, like this:

$ [sudo] make install PREFIX=/usr DESTDIR=./test-dir

Uninstalling

To uninstall RaySession, run:

$ [sudo] make uninstall

Running

You can run RaySession without install, by using:

$ ./src/bin/raysession

To run it, you'll additionally need:

  • python3-liblo
  • python3-pyqt5.qtsvg or python3-pyqt6.qtsvg

IMPORTANT: since python 3.11, because pyliblo has been totally abandonned by Dominic Sacre, for liblo you need to use the following fork:

https://github.com/gesellkammer/pyliblo3

Simply install it with:

$ python3 -m pip install pyliblo3
