Autoupdates Unvanquished using Unvanquished's CDN
git submodule init && git submodule update
Before building the updater itself you need to build aria2 library
cd aria2
autoreconf -i
./configure --without-libxml2 --without-libexpat --without-sqlite3 --enable-libaria2 --without-zlib --without-libcares --enable-static=yes ARIA2_STATIC=yes --without-libssh2 --disable-websocket --disable-nls --with-openssl
make -j4
cd ..
Note: you need Qt 5.8 at least.
QT_SELECT=5 qmake -config release
make -j4
docker build -t unvlauncher-linux .
docker run -v `pwd`/build-docker:/build-docker -u `id -u $USER` unvlauncher-linux
Search for updater2 (or updater2-nonstripped) in build-docker directory.
If the code is checked out on a Windows host, you must ensure that the line endings in the aria2 submodule are LF. The symptom of CRLF newlines is libtoolize: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4]) conflicts with ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS=-I m4
. To reset the newlines:
cd aria2
git config core.autocrlf input
git rm -r --cached . && git reset --hard
The first line below runs the Docker build for Windows. The last 3 lines are to copy the result out of the container.
docker build -t unvlauncher-win -f Dockerfile.win .
docker create --name unvlauncher-win unvlauncher-win
docker cp unvlauncher-win:/build/release/updater2.exe ./build-docker
docker rm unvlauncher-win
Search for updater2.exe in build-docker directory.
