~~Title: EFL on Mac OS X~~
~~NOCACHE~~
<note warning>
If you are coming here for Enlightenment (the desktop manager) on Mac OS X... sorry but Enlightenment is not supported on Mac OS X... and it is not planned in a near future (but any help is very welcomed).
</note>
The Enlightenment Foundation's projects mostly targets Linux platforms, therefore not everything work on Mac OS X works the first time. This is due to:
* the specificities of the Operating System (kernel+userland);
* the fact there are a very few Enlightened OS X users :-\
This document explains how to install the EFL which are key projects to install anything else made by the Enlightenment Foundation.
====== Mac OS X Homebrew Packages (for EFL USERS) ======
Homebrew is a package manager for Mac OS X. See at http://brew.sh how to install Homebrew if it isn't already installed.
Then, just execute:
<code bash>
brew update # To make sure you have the latest versions
brew install efl # To install EFL
</code>
And that's it! Enjoy your freshly distributed EFL :-).
The distributed version of EFL is [[http://braumeister.org/formula/efl|1.20.4]].
====== Manual Installation (for EFL DEVELOPERS) ======
===== Setting up the environment =====
You need to have the OS X CLT (Command-Line Tools) first, then install the EFL dependancies. The easiest way is by using a package manager. [[http://brew.sh|Homebrew]] is assumed to be the package manager.
<note important>
The CTL are not bundled with Xcode. Don't assume that they are installed if Xcode is installed.
</note>
To install the CTL, you should process as it follows:
* download the latest version of Xcode on the Mac App Store;
* run ''xcode-select --install'' in a terminal to install the CLT.
If you want to have the very latest version of EFL, here is the procedure:
* install the dependancies;
* configure the source;
* compile the sources and install them.
===== Dependancies with Homebrew =====
<code bash>
brew install autoconf automake libtool autoconf-archive gettext check pkg-config luajit jpeg freetype fribidi fontconfig giflib libtiff glib dbus libsndfile bullet libspectre libraw librsvg poppler gstreamer gst-plugins-good pulseaudio
brew migrate dbus
mkdir -p ~/Library/LaunchAgents
ln -sfv /usr/local/opt/dbus/*.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
</code>
You need to add ''autopoint'' to your ''$PATH'' if you want to use gettext. Write the line below in your ''$HOME/.profile'' or similar file.
<code bash>
export PATH="$(brew --prefix gettext)/bin:$PATH"
</code>
===== OpenSSL handling =====
Since Mac OS X El Capitan, Apple does not distribute OpenSSL headers anymore.
It is necessary to install OpenSLL manually through homebrew:
<code bash>
brew install openssl
brew link openssl --force
</code>
and to add flags to your bashrc (or equivalent):
<code bash>
export CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include $CFLAGS"
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib $LDFLAGS"
</code>
===== Modifying your linker flags =====
<note>
This step is **required** if you wish to build Mac OS X App Bundles (i.e. ''.app''). Otherwise, you can safely ignore this section.
</note>
''osx-packager'' is a python package initially developed at Open Wide to
generate App Bundles and/or DMG files for easy distribution.
It is available at [[https://git.enlightenment.org/devs/jayji/osx-packager.git]].
To make it work, you **MUST** provide custom linker flags:
<code bash>
export LDFLAGS="-Wl,-headerpad_max_install_names ${LDFLAGS}"
</code>
===== Configuring, Building and Installing EFL =====
Installing dependancies on OS X is painful, but now you did it (congrats'), you can grab the sources from the git repository:
<code bash>
git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/enlightenment/efl.git # Get the sources
cd efl # Go to repository you cloned
./autogen.sh --disable-cxx-bindings
make -j $(nproc) # Compile
sudo make -j $(nproc) install # Install
</code>
