Support for Linux aarch64 #420

Open JohnnyOhall opened 3 months ago

JohnnyOhall commented 3 months ago

Description

Would it be possible for create a release version that would work on Linux aarch64 devices?

Acceptance Criteria

additional release that includes .tar.gz or .AppImage file for aarch64 arcitecture (Such as Raspberry Pi's etc)

Can you show me how to support aarch64 arch? I built from my Intel PC, so it might not included in the AppImage

I personally have not done this before but here are some steps I found:

To support aarch64 architecture, you need to build your application for the aarch64 target. Here is a step-by-step guide to cross-compile your application for aarch64 on an Intel PC and package it into an AppImage.

Steps to Cross-Compile for aarch64 and Create an AppImage:

  1. Install Cross-Compilation Tools: Install the necessary tools for cross-compiling to aarch64. 
    sudo apt update sudo apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu g++-aarch64-linux-gnu
  2. Set Up Cross-Compilation Environment: Configure your build system (e.g., CMake, Makefile) to use the aarch64 cross-compiler. For CMake, you can create a toolchain file aarch64-toolchain.cmake: 
    # aarch64-toolchain.cmake set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME Linux) set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR aarch64) set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc) set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER aarch64-linux-gnu-g++)
  3. Build the Application: Use the toolchain file to build your application for aarch64. 
    mkdir build-aarch64 cd build-aarch64 cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../aarch64-toolchain.cmake .. make
  4. Create the AppImage: Use linuxdeploy and linuxdeploy-plugin-appimage to create the AppImage.
    wget https://github.com/linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy/releases/download/continuous/linuxdeploy-x86_64.AppImage wget https://github.com/linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy-plugin-appimage/releases/download/continuous/linuxdeploy-plugin-appimage-x86_64.AppImage chmod +x linuxdeploy*.AppImage ./linuxdeploy-x86_64.AppImage --appdir AppDir --executable path/to/your/aarch64/executable ./linuxdeploy-plugin-appimage-x86_64.AppImage --appdir AppDir

Thanks, I will try to support this arch on the next release 👍
