17 * This document does not cover how to use GNU Autotools for building
18 and installing software, instead, refer to the GNU Autotools documentation,
19 the INSTALL file and the "configure --help" output for more information.
21 * If you're not familiar with GNU Autotools and/or installing software
22 from the source code, you may prefer to install libquvi-scripts using a
23 binary package, instead. You can find libquvi-scripts packaged for many
26 * If you have previously installed libquvi-scripts from the source code
27 to your system, the recommended practice is to uninstall the previous
28 installation first, before you continue with the new one. You would,
29 typically, run "make uninstall" (as root if necessary) from the same
30 directory you ran "make install" from.
32 * If you are building libquvi-scripts from the git repository code, run
33 the `bootstrap.sh' first. This generates the configuration files. See also
34 the -h output for any additional info.
37 Simple install procedure
38 ------------------------
42 [ Become root if necessary ]
45 The configure script supports also the following options which are
46 relevant to the installation:
48 --with(out)-geoblocked (default: yes)
50 Install the scripts written for websites that are known to geoblock
51 IP addresses outside of their definition of the accepted IP ranges.
53 These are usually websites that block IPs from countries, sometimes
54 even cities, based on the registered geological location of the IP
57 --with(out)-fixme (default: no)
59 Install the scripts that have been marked as "FIXME". These are
60 known to be broken and need to be fixed. Patches welcome.
62 --with(out)-nsfw (default: no)
64 Install the scripts written for websites that host NSFW media.
66 --with(out)-manual (default:yes)
68 Install the manual page for libquvi-scripts.
70 --with(out)-tests (default: no)
72 Install with the tests. This enables the testsuite, see "Tests"
75 Note that the --with(out)-* options are ignored by the testsuite.
76 If you need more control over which of the tests should be run,
77 see the "Tests: Environment variables" for more information.

102 * GNU make is recommended

122 Installation directories
123 ------------------------
125 The location of the installed files is determined by the --prefix
126 and the --exec-prefix options given to the configure script.
128 The .pc file for libquvi-scripts is installed in $exec_prefix/lib/pkgconfig
129 to provide information when compiling packages that depend on libquvi-scripts.
135 To build the documentation suite, you need to have asciidoc. Because
136 not all users are inclined to install this tool, the default build
137 target does not build the documentation. See "make doc" below for
140 Installation: The libquvi-scripts dist tarball contains prebuilt
141 manual pages, and are installed by default. See `--with(out)-manual'
142 above. See also "make doc" below.
146 'make doc' builds the manual pages for libquvi-scripts if a2x(1) was
147 found by configure. The manual page files can be found at:
148 $top_srcdir/doc/man7/ -- input
149 $top_builddir/doc/man7/ -- output
155 The tests use the GLib framework for testing. All of these tests require
156 the presence of the libquvi and a working internet connection. The tests
157 reside in the tests/ directory.
159 'make check' will run the test programs listed in the TEST_PROGS
160 variable in the tests/Makefile.am . It will fail if any of the
161 tests fail. This is identical to running 'make test'.
163 NOTE: You must run `configure --with-tests' to enable the tests,
164 they are not enabled by default.
166 'make distcheck' will fail if any of the tests fail. Note that this
167 would, typically, require:
168 env DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS=--with-tests make distcheck
170 The tests use the gtester(1) and gtester-report(1) commands to produce
171 the logs. These programs are part of GLib. The test programs produce:
172 $(top_builddir)/tests/$test_program.html # gtester-report
173 $(top_builddir)/tests/$test_program.xml # gtester
176 Tests: Environment variables
177 ----------------------------
179 The testsuite supports the following environment variables:
181 TEST_VERBOSE will enable verbose libcurl(3) output.
183 TEST_SKIP will disable the specified tests. This list is a comma-separated
184 list of test names. The comma-separated values are treated as regular
187 TEST_GEOBLOCKED will enable the tests for the scripts that have been
188 marked as "geoblocked". These are skipped by default.
190 TEST_FIXME will enable the tests for the scripts that have been marked
191 as "FIXME". These are skipped by default.
193 TEST_NSFW will enable the tests for the scripts that have been marked
194 as "NSFW". These are skipped by default.
196 TEST_LEVEL will set the level ('basic', 'complete') of the tests.
197 'complete' - additional and mandatory script tests
198 'basic' - mandatory script tests only (default)
202 % env TEST_SKIP=test_media_,test_scan_ make test
204 % env TEST_VERBOSE=1 TEST_FIXME=1 TEST_GEOBLOCKED=1 TEST_LEVEL=complete \
205 TEST_SKIP=test_media_vimeo,test_playlist_youtube make test
211 The tests/ directory contains:
213 'find_tests.sh' will dump a list of available tests.
215 'run_tests.sh' is a convenience script that wraps many of the
216 testsuite features making them available via GUI. Note that
217 this script requires zenity(1).
219 For more info, run these scripts with the '-h' switch.
225 If you need to use a proxy, refer to the curl(1) manual page for a
226 complete list of the supported environment variables (e.g. http_proxy).
228 libquvi (and libquvi-scripts) uses libcurl to connect to the internet.
