How to build from source?

I'm trying to build from source but having no luck.

Any hints?

Assuming you don't need to build Qt 5 from source, you can install streamdeck from the master branch using this command:

pip install git+https://github.com/timothycrosley/streamdeck-ui

(See https://github.com/timothycrosley/streamdeck-ui/issues/67#issuecomment-706323599)

Depending on your Python installation, you may need to replace pip with pip3.

If @timothycrosley decides to create releases (see https://github.com/timothycrosley/streamdeck-ui/issues/49) to coincide with what is available on pip, you may to append @tagname to the command above with version you're wanting to install.

@yerazunis Can you clarify what you were looking for?

There is some information here on how to get started. Let me know where you get stuck so we can update the docs and improve.

Thanks

I followed the Getting streamdeck_ui set up for local development page but after poetry install I don't know what to do to launch the local version I just modified.. any hint? EDIT: I just finished reading the poetry quickstart and discovered you can do poetry run streamdeck to launch the the project. Might be worth mentioning it in the page though.

In addition to poetry run streamdeck, which worked, but didn't seem connect to my Stream Deck I did the following:

scripts/compile_ui.sh                         # might not be needed?
poetry build                                  # builds whl, tar.gz
pip3 install --user dist/streamdeck_ui-*.whl  # install wheel
~/.local/bin/streamdeck                       # run streamdeck

I had used the AUR version of streamdeck_ui (on Arch Linux), so I my Stream Deck was working - uninstalled that and with the above commands, I was able to run my own version of streamdeck_ui.

hi, this project seems to be stale and a new fork as been made with the intention of replacing this one.
