Building instructions

Dependencies

  • You need Git, Meson, CMake, Lua and GCC. Make sure these dependencies are installed on your system.

    • Debian: apt-get install git meson cmake build-essential lua5.4
    • Arch: pacman -S git meson cmake gcc lua

  • For the client, OpenGL is required:

    • Debian: apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev
    • Arch: pacman -S mesa

Dependencies with fallbacks

These dependencies will be built from source if they are not present.

  • ZLib is required by both client and server.

    • Debian: apt-get install libz-dev
    • Arch: pacman -S zlib

  • The server requires SQLite3.

    • Debian: apt-get install libsqlite3-dev
    • Arch: pacman -S sqlite3

  • The client requires GLFW and GLEW.

    • Debian: apt-get install libglfw3-dev libglew-dev
    • Arch: pacman -S glfw glew

If you plan to build GLFW and GLEW from source, you still need their build dependencies, refer to:

(on X11/Debian based systems: apt-get install xorg-dev libxkbcommon-dev)

Building a debug build

By default Meson will make a debug build. Simply use

meson setup build
meson compile -C build

to build the dragonblocks client and server. If you use a debug build, the singleplayer/launcher script should be invoked from the build/ directory, because that's where the binaries are located.

Building a statically linked release snapshot

# Native snapshot
./misc/snapshot.sh

# Crosscompiling for windows

# win32 (requires i686-w64-mingw32-gcc)
./misc/snapshot.sh win32

# win64 (requires x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc)
./misc/snapshot.sh win64

Creates snapshot zipfiles.
