KDAB has built a demo of using CXX-Qt to expose a Servo in Rust as a component to Qt.
qmake
in your PATH
../mach boostrap
from the https://github.com/servo/servo/ repository.shell.nix
by installing Nix and then running nix-shell
, it will take care of all dependencies automatically$ rustup install nightly-2024-02-01
$ rustup default nightly-2024-02-01
$ cargo run --release
Note that this demo currently supports Wayland only, not X11.
To make sure, that Qt picks the correct OpenGL driver, use the QSG_INFO=1
variable. For hardware acceleration to work, the driver name should not contain llvmpipe
.
Note that on embedded hardware it might be necessary to force servo to use OpenGL ES.
If you using Nix and if not on NixOS, make sure to run the final executable with the nixGLMesa
wrapper (or if not on Mesa, with the correct wrapper for your driver). This will make sure that the OpenGL drivers are passed through from the host system with nixGL.
