Dependencies

DEPENDENCIES ARE NEEDED TO BE INSTALLED TO BUILD AND RUN THE APP

A complete list of dependencies for the project can be found in ubuntu-docviewer-app/debian/control

The following essential packages are also required to develop this app:

  • ubuntu-sdk
  • intltool - run sudo apt-get install intltool

Compiling

A working internet connection is required in order to build the project. A number of Debian packages are downloaded when the project is loaded the first times

  • Install poppler's development files: sudo apt install libpoppler-qt5-dev

  • Install Qt5 private development files: sudo apt install qtdeclarative5-private-dev qtbase5-private-dev

  • If you want to compile an arm click package, you need to install that package to the arm compilation environment. For example when using QtCreator for Ubuntu Touch, open Options -> Ubuntu -> Maintain, and then enter:

    apt install libpoppler-qt5-dev:armhf qtdeclarative5-private-dev:armhf qtbase5-private-dev:armhf

LibreOffice viewer support

  • If you want to enable the LibreOffice viewer feature, you'll need to have a LibreOffice 5.0 installation on your development environment. To do so, type the following commands on a terminal:

    sudo apt-get purge libreoffice-core sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-5-0 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install libreoffice

  • Then to compile the LibreOffice viewer plugin you'll simply need to install the LibreOffice Kit development files:

    sudo apt install libreofficekit-dev
