binaries for version 1.1

Open fredokun opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

I'd like to make a new release for Tikz-editor with py3/qt5 support. Sadly, I don't have access to mac or windows computers anymore ...

I can help as I have a mac and windows computer.

It would be nice to have some binary generation scripts available. I think Tikz-editor is somewhat popular on Macs so that would be a good start for a first binary ... But I do not know exactly how to help there.

@fredokun I didn't have time to come up with an appropriate solution. PR #14 builds the app but it is not tested beyond my computer. There are couple of general issues. Python 3 is not part of a standard installation of MacOS (up to High Sierra). I installed mine using brew. The issue is now that building the package pulls in all dependencies (including python3) itself. Beside the package size being now ~260MB, I'm not sure if the package will run across different MacOS versions or without the proper brew installation

But maybe as a start. ;)

@fredokun I looked into the issue and built the package. I put the built package at: https://github.com/MartinNowack/TikZ-Editor/releases/tag/pre1.1 I think 90MB compressed is fine. I also tested it by uninstalling all dependencies including python3 and it still works. The package is pretty self-contained.

Feel free to use it.
