If we are cross-compiling to windows, we need to also link with the iconv library. We do not check for the iconv library existance here. We assume that if the ctpp2 library is present all its own dependencies are present also. |

libkiwix
libkiwix contains the common code base for all kiwix ports.
Build kiwix-tools
Most of the compilation steps (including download and compilation of dependencies and other tools (kiwix-tools)) are handle by kiwix-build script. If you don't have any special need, we recommand you to use kiwix-build instead of doing all the steps yourself.
Dependencies:
You'll need the following dependencies to build libkiwix:
- icu
- libzim
- pugixml
- aria2c
- ctpp2
- xapian (optional)
On debian architecture, you can install the following deb packages:
- libicu-dev
- libxapian-dev
- libctpp2-dev
- aria2c
You will need to install yourself:
- libzim
- libpugixml - 1.8+, compiled with
-DBUILD_PKGCONFIG=1 -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=1
As we use meson to build kiwix-tools, you will need the common meson tools:
- meson >= 0.34
- ninja
- pkg-config
To build:
$ cd kiwix-lib
$ meson . build
$ cd build
$ ninja
$ ninja install
By default, it will compile dynamic linked libraries.
If you want statically linked libraries, you can add --default-library=static
option to the meson command.
