Hi Viktorgino, thanks for fixing qml_gui folder thing so quickly! One more request. Its seems there has been few changes in the application. So the final app file is different I believe. Instead of "app.pro", I believe it is "headunit-desktop.pro" So the final command "make -j4 sub-app-pro" gives me a program without AA. I did try "make -j4 sub-headunit-desktop-pro" but getting error that there is no make config file.

Can you help me with that please?

Hello, I think I have similar problem. Building instruction is outdated or not complete (I have tried http://headunit.viktorgino.me). I stuck on compiling protobuf files. The error is headunit/hu/hu.proto: No such file or directory. When skipping this step and building with QTCreator, there are another errors like: Unknown module(s) in QT: BluezQt (I have installed everything I could for bluez including qt-connectivity). Maybe for people who knows QT it is simple and does not require clarification but I have not idea how to build and run the project. I hope someone can write working build documentation so I will be able to try this software and maybe help with development because it looks very promising.

Im working on moving the instructions to the Wiki and updating the at the same time, should make the documentation more up-to-date in the future.

The correct command for the protoc build is : protoc --proto_path=modules/android-auto/headunit/hu/ --cpp_out=modules/android-auto/headunit/hu/generated.x64/ modules/android-auto/headunit/hu/hu.proto

You'll need to install the dev files for BluezQt. I've already added an updated dependency list to the wiki, I suggest you install those on Ubuntu or Debian : https://github.com/viktorgino/headunit-desktop/wiki/Compiling-HUD

Oh... Somehow I've missed wiki of this repo... Thank you for the answer. protoc command you gave works so now I need to deal with installation of dependencies that are missing in ubuntu repository and I hope I will be able to build this monster :)

The protoc command work well but i cant do "make -j4 sub-app-pro" The output is Make: *** no rule to make target 'sub-app-pro'. Stop. Same with sub-headunit-desktop-pro

viktorgino commented 5 years ago

@ExperienceTesla the sub-app-pro is not needed anymore, so the it becomes make -j4

viktorgino commented 5 years ago

I've added the updated instructions to https://github.com/viktorgino/headunit-desktop/wiki/Building-Headunit-Desktop if anyone has any issues building after following these instructions please let me know here.

Hello @viktorgino, sorry I haven't write anything for so long, I just didn't have enough time to sit to this :( I saw your updated wiki pages:

I will try to deal with this now. If you have any clue what I am doing wrong, please help :)

The weird thing is that I was able to build headunit app now... Music player is not working / or I don't know how to use it (could be connected to lack of qtgstreamer I guess). Also the most important tab - Settings - is empty :/

pawel0987 commented 5 years ago

Update about qtgstreamer: In ubuntu 19.04 there is package: "libqt5gstreamer-dev" available. Nevertheless even after installing this and rebuilding application, cannot really use settings view. May it be something wrong with building process?

pawel0987 commented 5 years ago

Ok, some summary of what I did and another problems: Application logs says:

  1. qrc:/qml/SettingsPage/SettingsPageItem.qml:27:9: "Connections.enabled" is not available in QtQuick 2.6. Error dissapped when I removed this property.
  2. Settings Loader: "" : Error loading settings JSON, root type should be of "items" type Looks like the cause of empty settings page. I didn't find solution yet.
  3. qrc:/PhoneBluetooth/Phone.qml:251:25: Type Contacts unavailable
qrc:/PhoneBluetooth/Contacts.qml:2:1: module "QtContacts" is not installed

    I was searching for this module how to install it but without success. It should be in apt but it's not.

One last thing from my site: On this wiki page I would suggest to not split command into lines. Currently when you copy-paste from wiki it tries to execute separate lines (which is bad of course).
