Need help building

[kevinpapst]

Mac OS user here. Maybe you have an idea what is wrong?

$ cmake . -B build

CMake Error at src/client/CMakeLists.txt:3 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5" with any of
  the following names:

    Qt5Config.cmake
    qt5-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "Qt5" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "Qt5_DIR"
  to a directory containing one of the above files.  If "Qt5" provides a
  separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/Users/kevin/Development/kemai/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".

But QT5 is installed:

$ brew search qt5
==> Formulae
pyqt5                                                                     qt5 ✔

Edit: I have never used cmake or worked with C++

As Qt have been install through homebrew, you should use this command:

> cmake . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/opt/qt
> cmake --build build --config Release

Works!

One build warning:

All fonts looks a bit blurry, but that might be problem of QT5.

Here is an image that you can use as app icon:

[AlexandrePTJ]

Thanks you for the feedback and for app icon. Is there anything to mention about using this icon ?

[kevinpapst]

No, its licensed under MIT like the ones here: https://github.com/kevinpapst/kimai2/tree/master/public I hope GitHub saved it with transparent background... if not, drop me an email.

[AlexandrePTJ]

png is fine. Also, now osx app is generated and deployed by appveyor. This will ease its try.

[kevinpapst]

I did a git pull and the two build commands again. The warning is gone, but the icon only updated in the system tray. The dock icon (and also the app icon in the finder) is still empty:
