## Introduction
<b>GoldenDict</b> is a feature-rich dictionary lookup program, supporting multiple dictionary formats (StarDict/Babylon/Lingvo/Dictd/AARD/MDict/SDict) and online dictionaries, featuring perfect article rendering with the complete markup, illustrations and other content retained, and allowing you to type in words without any accents or correct case.
## Requirements
This code has been run and tested on Windows 10/11, Ubuntu Linux, Mac OS X.
### External Deps
* Make, GCC, Git
* Qt framework. Minimum required version is 5.15 and support the latest QT version 6.2.4
* Qt Creator IDE is recommended for development
* Various libraries on Linux (png, zlib, etc)
* On Mac and Windows all the libraries are already included in the repository
#### Installing External Deps on Ubuntu Linux for Qt5
sudo apt-get install git pkg-config build-essential qt5-qmake \
libvorbis-dev zlib1g-dev libhunspell-dev x11proto-record-dev \
qtdeclarative5-dev libxtst-dev liblzo2-dev libbz2-dev \

libqt5svg5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev qttools5-dev \
qttools5-dev-tools qtmultimedia5-dev libqt5multimedia5-plugins
### Fedora 35
```
sudo dnf install git pkg-config \
libvorbis-devel zlib-devel hunspell-devel lzo-devel bzip2-devel \
libao-devel ffmpeg-devel libtiff-devel eb-devel qt5-qtx11extras-devel libXtst-devel \
libxkbcommon-devel
```
## How to build
First, clone this repository, e.g.:
git clone https://github.com/goldendict/goldendict.git
### Linux
And then invoke `qmake-qt5` and `make`:
cd goldendict && qmake-qt5 && make
### macOS
```
brew install qt # or use official offline installer
qmake CONFIG+=release CONFIG+=zim_support CONFIG+=chinese_conversion_support QMAKE_APPLE_DEVICE_ARCHS="x86_64 arm64"
make
make install
```
### Windows
Alternatively, you might want to load `goldendict.pro` file from within Qt Creator, especially on Windows.
### Building with Chinese conversion support
To add Chinese conversion support you need at first install libopencc-dev package:
sudo apt-get install libopencc-dev
Then pass `"CONFIG+=chinese_conversion_support"` to `qmake`
qmake "CONFIG+=chinese_conversion_support"
### Building with Zim dictionaries support
To add Zim and Slob formats support you need at first install lzma-dev and zstd-dev packages:
sudo apt-get install liblzma-dev libzstd-dev
Then pass `"CONFIG+=zim_support"` to `qmake`
qmake "CONFIG+=zim_support"
### Building without extra tiff handler
If you have problem building with libtiff5-dev package, you can pass
`"CONFIG+=no_extra_tiff_handler"` to `qmake` in order to disable extra tiff support
(without such extra support some b/w tiff images will not be displayed):
qmake "CONFIG+=no_extra_tiff_handler"
### Building without Epwing format support
If you have problem building with libeb-dev package, you can pass
`"CONFIG+=no_epwing_support"` to `qmake` in order to disable Epwing format support
qmake "CONFIG+=no_epwing_support"
### Building without internal audio players
If you have problem building with FFmpeg/libao (for example, Ubuntu older than 12.04), you can pass
`"CONFIG+=no_ffmpeg_player"` to `qmake` in order to disable FFmpeg+libao internal audio player back end:
qmake "CONFIG+=no_ffmpeg_player"
If you have problem building with Qt5 Multimedia or experience GStreamer run-time errors (for example, Ubuntu 14.04), you can pass
`"CONFIG+=no_qtmultimedia_player"` to `qmake` in order to disable Qt Multimedia internal audio player back end:
qmake "CONFIG+=no_qtmultimedia_player"
<b>NB:</b> All additional settings for `qmake` that you need must be combined in one `qmake` launch, for example:
qmake "CONFIG+=zim_support" "CONFIG+=no_extra_tiff_handler" "CONFIG+=no_ffmpeg_player"
Then, invoke `make clean` before `make` because the setting change:
make clean && make
### Building under Windows with MS Visual Studio
the source code has offered precompile x64 windows libs on winlibs/lib/msvc. you can build your own version either.
To build with Visual Studio.
check this [how to build with visual studio](howto/how%20to%20build%20and%20debug%20with%20VS2019.md)
## Installation
Installation is an optional step since the built binary can be used as-is without installation. But you can properly install via:
make install
<b>NB:</b> Don't do that on Windows!
You can uninstall via:
make uninstall
