Theme and build instructions for the Nextcloud desktop client.
Based on https://github.com/owncloud/client/blob/master/doc/building.rst
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nextcloud-devs/client
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nextcloud-clientLaunchpad: https://launchpad.net/~nextcloud-devs/+archive/ubuntu/client
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nextcloud-devs/client-beta
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nextcloud-clientLaunchpad: https://launchpad.net/~nextcloud-devs/+archive/ubuntu/client-beta
If you always want the latest versions (including the betas), add both repositories. If you want only the stable version, add the non-beta repository only.
You need to add to sources.list or a separate source list file one of the source lines below corresponding to your Debian version:
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi/Debian_9.0_update/ /
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi/Debian_9.0/ /
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi/Debian_8.0/ /
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi/Debian_7.0/ /
Before installing, you also need to add the respository's key to the list of trusted APT keys with a command line:
wget -q -O - <repository URL>/Release.key | apt-key add
For example (as root):
echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi/Debian_9.0/ /' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nextcloud-client.list
wget -q -O - http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi/Debian_9.0/Release.key | apt-key add -
apt-get update
apt-get install nextcloud-clientBeta packages are also available:
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi:/beta/Debian_9.0_update/ /
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi:/beta/Debian_9.0/ /
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi:/beta/Debian_8.0/ /
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ivaradi:/beta/Debian_7.0/ /
If you always want the latest versions (including the betas), add both the normal and the beta repositories. If you want only the stable version, add the non-beta repository only.

snapcraftInstalling via Snap package (supported distributions)
Download the snap package for your architecture
sudo snap install --dangerous nextcloud-client_*.snapInstalling a snap is very quick. Snaps are secure. They are isolated with all of their dependencies. Snaps also auto update when a new version is released.
The snap is confined, thus the synced folders will be by default in ~/snap/<version>/, the client can access to the actual home, but not to the .dotted files, use symlinks if you need to.
Run:
git submodule update --init --recursiveRun:
# If building on Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev qt5-default libqt5webkit5-dev qt5keychain-dev libssl-dev
# All distributions
mkdir build-linux
cd build-linux
cmake -D OEM_THEME_DIR=$(realpath ../nextcloudtheme) ../client
make
sudo make installInstall required packages.
sudo apt-get install git libsqlite3-dev qt5-default libqt5webkit5-dev qt5keychain-dev cmake build-essential libowncloudsync0
If you are using Debian 9 install libssl1.0-dev
sudo apt-get install libssl1.0-dev
If you are using Debian 8 install libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
Then:
git clone https://github.com/nextcloud/client_theming.git
cd client_theming
git submodule update --init --recursive
mkdir build-linux
cd build-linux
cmake -D OEM_THEME_DIR=$(realpath ../nextcloudtheme) -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ../client
make
sudo make installAttention: When building make sure to use an old Core 2 Duo build machine running OS X 10.10. Otherwise the resulting binary won't work properly for users of an older device. Have at least 180 GB free disk space when compiling Qt. Make sure your user is named "builder".
- Install HomeBrew
brew install openssl wget cmakewget https://github.com/sparkle-project/Sparkle/releases/download/1.14.0/Sparkle-1.14.0.tar.bz2tar -xf Sparkle-1.14.0.tar.bz2mv Sparkle.framework ~/Library/Frameworks/- Install XCode 7.2.1
- sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
- Generate Sparkle keys:
./bin/generate_keys. Keep those, if you loose it you won't be able to deploy updates anymore. - Store the keys in
osx/. Make sure to not make thedsa_priv.pempublicly available. - Install http://s.sudre.free.fr/Software/Packages/about.html
Download and compile Qt 5.9.2 source. Unfortunately the Qt patches don't apply anymore, so we just ignore them for the time being.
cd /tmp/
wget http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.9/5.9.2/single/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.9.2.tar.xz
tar -xjf qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.9.2.tar.xz
cd /tmp/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.9.2
./configure -sdk macosx10.11 -openssl -openssl-linked -I /usr/local/opt/openssl/include/ -L /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/ -nomake examples
make -j2
sudo make -j1 installsh osx/build.shThe docker image contains the toolchain to build the windows binary. Build it:
docker build -t nextcloud-client-win32:<version> client/admin/win/docker/Note: if you encounter an error at this step that the MinGW repository was not found, apply the patch at win/opensuse-mingw-repo-location.patch and try again:
cd client
patch -p1 < ../win/opensuse-mingw-repo-location.patch
cd ..docker run -v "$PWD:/home/user/" nextcloud-client-win32:2.2.2 /home/user/win/build.sh $(id -u)When we build releases there are two additional cmake parameters to consider:
-DMIRALL_VERSION_SUFFIX=<STRING>: for a generic suffix name such asbetaorrc1-DMIRALL_VERSION_BUILD=<INT>: an internal build number. Should be strictly increasing. This allows update detection fromrctofinal
Note that this had mostly usage on Windows and OS X. On Linux the package manager will take care of all this.
