A personal fish-shell script to [cross-] compile Qt from source.

Supported Platforms:

• Linux
• Android
• WebAssembly

• A "Platform" is an environment where the compiled Qt will be executed in.
• A "kit" is a set of CMake argument preset, which can be combined to form a "kit set", or "kits".

-p, --platform          Target platform, default value is 'desktop'
-a, --arch              Target architecture, default='x86_64', platform-specific.
-h, --host-path         Path to the Qt host build directory, can be automatically detected if unspecified.
-j, --parallel          Run N jobs at once, can be automatically detected from nproc if unspecified.
-k, --skip-cleanup      Skip cleanup the build directory.
-E, --export            Export build configuration to a script.

• Default Platform: desktop
• Default KitSet: ccache, shared, release (See ./.default-kits)

1. Apply base kits, stored in ./.base-kits
2. Apply kits given from the argument
3. If kits are still empty, apply default kits

• Compile Qt for Linux desktop, a shared library debug build.

# desktop, shared, release is the default
./build-qt.fish
# or:
# ./build-qt.fish shared release
# ./build-qt.fish -pdesktop shared release
# ./build-qt.fish --platform=desktop shared release

• Compile Qt for Linux desktop, a shared library release build.

./build-qt.fish shared debug
# or:
# ./build-qt.fish -pdesktop shared debug
# ./build-qt.fish --platform=desktop shared debug

• Compile Qt for Android (default architecture x86_64), a static debug build, with parallel 128

./build-qt.fish -p android static debug -j128
# or:
# ./build-qt.fish --platform=android static debug --parallel=128

• Compile Qt for Android with architecture arm64-v8a, a static release build, keep previous build directory

./build-qt.fish -p android -a arm64-v8a static release -k
# or:
# ./build-qt.fish --platform=android --arch=arm64-v8a static release --skip-cleanup

• Compile Qt for Android with architecture armeabi-v7a, a static release build, keep previous build directory, with custom Qt host path

./build-qt.fish -p android -a armeabi-v7a static release -k -h /my/own/qt/installation
# or:
# ./build-qt.fish --platform=android --arch=armeabi-v7a static release --skip-cleanup --host-path=/my/own/qt/installation

• Compile Qt for WASM, with static build (you can't use shared build anyway)

./build-qt.fish -p wasm static
# or:
# ./build-qt.fish --platform=wasm static

WTFPL :)
