First time build
·················
$ meson build
$ cd build
$ ninja
Build, install and run the app with debug messages in one line
..............................................................
$ sudo ninja install && env G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all com.github.spheras.desktopfolder
Use debugger suite
..................
Nemiver is GNOME's GUI debugger. It can be really useful for locating the source of crashes and bugs.
$ sudo apt install nemiver
After installing use this instead of the one liner above:
$ sudo ninja install && env G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all nemiver com.github.spheras.desktopfolder
Install uncrustify
··················
Don't use sudo apt install uncrustify!
Run this one-liner to install the latest release of uncrustify:
$ cd ~/Downloads && wget https://github.com/uncrustify/uncrustify/archive/uncrustify-0.65.tar.gz && tar -xf uncrustify-0.65.tar.gz && cd uncrustify-uncrustify-0.65/cmake/ && cmake .. && sudo make install
If you want to run it step by step instead:
$ cd ~/Downloads
$ wget https://github.com/uncrustify/uncrustify/archive/uncrustify-0.65.tar.gz
$ tar -xf uncrustify-0.65.tar.gz
$ cd uncrustify-uncrustify-0.65/cmake/
$ cmake ..
$ sudo make install
This means everyone is using the same version, so the output is consistent.
Use uncrustify
··············
Go to src/ and run uncrustify like this:
$ uncrustify --replace --no-backup -c ../etc/uncrustify-elementary-vala.cfg */*.vala *.vala
Make sure you don't end comment lines with a \ (backslash), otherwise
uncrustify turns the next line into a comment as well:
// This prints a \
my_function ();
Gets turned into:
// This prints a
// my_function ();
It's okay if you put any character after it though:
// This prints a \ character.
// (or) This prints a \.
my_function ();
Show debug messages
···················
$ export G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all
Generate pot file
·················
$ ninja com.github.spheras.desktopfolder-pot
Debian build
············
sudo apt install devscripts
From root directory:
$ debuild -uc -us
(Hint) To execute rules:
$ ./debian/rules install
GTK Introspector
················
$ gsettings set org.gtk.Settings.Debug enable-inspector-keybinding true
After that, press Ctrl+Shift+D or Ctrl+Shift+I on the window you want to debug.
Snap creation
·············
$ sudo apt install snapcraft
$ sudo docker pull snapcore/snapcraft
$ sudo docker run -v $PWD:$PWD -w $PWD snapcore/snapcraft snapcraft
Relase a new version
····················
https://wiki.debian.org/Creating%20signed%20GitHub%20releases
1. tag the code (change version): $ git tag -s v1.1.2
2. push the tag created: $ git push --tags
3. then publish a new release into github
4. download the .gz generated at the release
5. sign the tarball (change version): $ gpg --armor --detach-sign desktopfolder-1.1.2.tar.gz
6. it will create a desktopfolder-1.1.2.tar.gz.asc file
7. Edit your release again and attach the detached signature desktopfolder-1.1.2.tar.gz.asc as binary to the release.
8. Compile with debian at the root: $ debuild -uc -us
9. Attach also the .dsc .tar.xz and .deb generated
