    • See below for instructions on how to compile and run the project:

    Dependencies:

    • CMake >= 3.12
    • Boost >= 1.74
      • algorithm
      • date_time
      • endian
      • functional

    • (Linux only) - ALSA library (e.g. libasound2-dev)
    • (Linux only) - MIDI sequencer (e.g. timidity-daemon)
    • A compiler with C++20 support.

    Building:

    Windows:

    • Install Git - see https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git
    • Install vcpkg and run vcpkg install --triplet x64-windows boost-algorithm boost-date-time boost-endian boost-functional boost-iostreams boost-rational boost-signals2 boost-stacktrace doctest minizip nlohmann-json pugixml to install dependencies.
    • Install Qt by running vcpkg install --triplet x64-windows qtbase qttools (this may take a while), or install a binary release from the Qt website or https://github.com/miurahr/aqtinstall.
    • Open the project folder in Visual Studio and build.
      • If running CMake manually, set CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE to [vcpkg root]\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake
    PowerShell Installation Scripts
    • For a more installation streamlined process
      • with at least PowerShell 5.1 is installed on your machine
      • Run these powershell scripts in your powershell terminal with your shell working directory as your cloned project
    .\scripts\Get-Dependencies.ps1 -vcpkg_exe_path "your/path/to/your/vcpkg.exe" -python_exe_path "your/path/to/your/python.exe";
.\scripts\Run-CMakeBuild.ps1 -vcpkg_dir "your/path/to/your/vcpkg" -qt_path "your/path/to/qt";

    You'll have to update the variables for your specific paths to $vcpkg_exe_path, $python_exe_path, and $qt_path

    Linux:

    • These instructions assume a recent Ubuntu/Debian-based system, but the package names should be similar for other package managers.
    • Install dependencies:
      • sudo apt update
      • sudo apt install cmake qt6-base-dev qt6-tools-dev qt6-tools-dev-tools qt6-l10n-tools libboost-dev libboost-date-time-dev libboost-iostreams-dev nlohmann-json3-dev libasound2-dev librtmidi-dev libpugixml-dev libminizip-dev doctest-dev
        • You may also need to install libglx-dev libgl1-mesa-dev along with Qt6
      • sudo apt install timidity-daemon - timidity is not required for building, but is a good sequencer for MIDI playback.
      • Optionally, use Ninja instead of make (sudo apt install ninja-build)
    • Build:
      • mkdir build && cd build
      • cmake ..
        • Add -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/some/path to customize the install directory.
        • Add -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug for a debug build instead of a Release build.
        • Add -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ to compile with Clang.
        • Add -G Ninja to generate Ninja build files.
      • make -j8 or ninja
    • Run:
      • ./bin/powertabeditor
      • ./bin/pte_tests to run the unit tests.
    • Install:
      • make install or ninja install

    OS X:

    • Install Xcode along with its Command Line Tools.
    • Install dependencies:
      • brew install boost cmake doctest minizip ninja nlohmann-json pugixml qt6 pugixml rtmidi
      • Note that the Qt package from homebrew [does not currently work for building the installer|https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/issues/15354]. Installing via https://github.com/miurahr/aqtinstall is an alternative.
    • Build with ninja or Xcode:
      • mkdir build && cd build
      • Ninja
        • cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/opt/qt6/lib/cmake ..
        • ninja
      • Xcode
        • cmake -G Xcode -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/opt/qt6/lib/cmake ..
        • With Xcode open and build build/powertabeditor.xcodeproj
