how to build sailfish-office(cmake && mb2/sb2)
http://jollaphone.eu/?p=3125
I would like to contribute some features to sailfish-office (the pdf viewer plugin). So here is how far I progressed on the way, this might apply to eg the sailfish-browser as well
1. Find the source
https://github.com/sailfishos/sailfish-office
2. fork/clone it
3. create a checkout (of your fork)
git clone [email protected]:sailfishos/sailfish-office.git
4. open some (new/placeholder) project in the sailfish IDE
5. start the SDK
6. ssh into the SDK
login in to the mer sdk as user “mersdk”:
ssh -p 2222 -i ~/SailfishOS/vmshare/ssh/private_keys/engine/mersdk mersdk@localhost
7. go to the checkout dir (your home dir is mounted in ~/share/)
cd ~/share/path/to/the/code/sailfish-office/
8. try compiling an rpm
For the emulator:
mb2 -t SailfishOS-i486 -s rpm/sailfish-office.spec build
For your device:
mb2 -t SailfishOS-armv7hl -s rpm/sailfish-office.spec build
9. Notice missing dependencies
[mersdk@SailfishSDK sailfish-office]$ mb2 -t SailfishOS-i486 -s rpm/sailfish-office.spec build Package 'libjollasignonuiservice-qt5-devel' not found. Building target platforms: i486-meego-linux-gnu Building for target i486-meego-linux-gnu error: Failed build dependencies: libqt5sparql-devel is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 poppler-qt5-devel is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 poppler-qt5 is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 poppler-devel is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 cmake is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 libjollasignonuiservice-qt5-devel is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486
**STOP following here**
10. install dependencies
sudo zypper in libqt5sparql-devel poppler-qt5-devel poppler-devel cmake
11. fail
There is no package providing **libjollasignonuiservice-qt5-devel**
Installing the other packages does not in fact make mb2 happy, ie
[mersdk@SailfishSDK sailfish-office]$ mb2 -t SailfishOS-i486 -s rpm/sailfish-office.spec build Package 'libjollasignonuiservice-qt5-devel' not found. Building target platforms: i486-meego-linux-gnu Building for target i486-meego-linux-gnu error: Failed build dependencies: libqt5sparql-devel is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 poppler-qt5-devel is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 poppler-qt5 is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 poppler-devel is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 cmake is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486 libjollasignonuiservice-qt5-devel is needed by sailfish-office-1.1.5-1.i486
remains as the output.
Manuall compilation:
have a look at rpm/sailfish-office.spec:
BuildRequires: pkgconfig(Qt5Quick) BuildRequires: pkgconfig(Qt5Widgets) #BuildRequires: pkgconfig(Qt5WebKit) BuildRequires: pkgconfig(Qt5DBus) BuildRequires: libqt5sparql-devel BuildRequires: poppler-qt5-devel poppler-qt5 poppler-devel poppler BuildRequires: mapplauncherd-qt5-devel BuildRequires: cmake BuildRequires: qt5-qttools-linguist BuildRequires: libjollasignonuiservice-qt5-devel
so we need to install all of this (additionally to what was installed above)
sudo zypper in qt5-qtdeclarative-qtquick-devel qt5-qtdbus-devel qt5-qttools-linguist mapplauncherd-qt5-devel
however, again, libjollasignonuiservice-qt5-devel is actually not in the repo, so we cant install it
mkdir build cd build cmake ../sailfish-office/
will fail with

Todo
1. create arm packages to test on device
2. use open build service to create packages
3. setup an openrepo for the build from open build service ?
4. cleanup of this wannabe guide
Can anyone help? @Jolla could someone provide the missing package? I will update this entry as I/we progress
