# Dependencies

To build Eden, you MUST have a C++ compiler.
* On Linux, this is usually [GCC](https://gcc.gnu.org/) 11+ or [Clang](https://clang.llvm.org/) v14+
  - GCC 12 also requires Clang 14+
* On Windows, this is either:
  - **[MSVC](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/)** (you should select *Community* option),
  - clang-cl - can be downloaded from the MSVC installer,
  - or **[MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org)**
* On macOS, this is Apple Clang
  - This can be installed with `xcode-select --install`

The following additional tools are also required:

* **[CMake](https://www.cmake.org/)** 3.22+ - already included with the Android SDK
* **[Git](https://git-scm.com/)** for version control
  - **[Windows installer](https://gitforwindows.org)**
* On Windows, you must install the **[Vulkan SDK](https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home#windows)** as well
  - *A convenience script to install the latest SDK is provided in `.ci/windows/install-vulkan-sdk.ps1`*

If you are on desktop and plan to use the Qt frontend, you *must* install Qt 6, and optionally Qt Creator (the recommended IDE for building)
* On Linux, *BSD and macOS, this can be done by the package manager
  - If you wish to use Qt Creator, append `qtcreator` or `qt-creator` to the commands seen below.
* MSVC/clang-cl users on Windows must install through the [official installer](https://www.qt.io/download-qt-installer-oss)
* Linux and macOS users may choose to use the installer as well.
* MSYS2 can also install Qt 6 via the package manager

If you are on Windows, a convenience script to install MSVC, MSYS2, Qt, all necessary packages for MSYS2, and set up a zsh environment with useful keybinds and aliases can be found [here](https://git.crueter.xyz/scripts/windev).
- For help setting up Qt Creator, run `./install.sh -h qtcreator`

If you are on Windows and NOT building with MSYS2, you may go [back home](Build.md) and continue.

## Externals
The following are handled by Eden's externals:

* [FFmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/) (should use `-DYUZU_USE_EXTERNAL_FFMPEG=ON`)
* [SDL2](https://www.libsdl.org/download-2.0.php) 2.0.18+ (should use `-DYUZU_USE_EXTERNAL_SDL2=ON` OR `-DYUZU_USE_BUNDLED_SDL2=ON` to reduce compile time)

All other dependencies will be downloaded and built by [CPM](https://github.com/cpm-cmake/CPM.cmake/) if `YUZU_USE_CPM` is on, but will always use system dependencies if available (UNIX-like only):

* [Boost](https://www.boost.org/users/download/) 1.57.0+
* [Catch2](https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2) 3.0.1 if `YUZU_TESTS` or `DYNARMIC_TESTS` are on
* [fmt](https://fmt.dev/) 8.0.1+
* [lz4](http://www.lz4.org)
* [nlohmann\_json](https://github.com/nlohmann/json) 3.8+
* [OpenSSL](https://www.openssl.org/source/) 1.1.1+
* [ZLIB](https://www.zlib.net/) 1.2+
* [zstd](https://facebook.github.io/zstd/) 1.5+
* [enet](http://enet.bespin.org/) 1.3+
* [Opus](https://opus-codec.org/) 1.3+
* [MbedTLS](https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls) 3+

Vulkan 1.3.274+ is also needed:
* [VulkanUtilityLibraries](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Utility-Libraries)
* [VulkanHeaders](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Headers)
* [SPIRV-Tools](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/SPIRV-Tools)
* [SPIRV-Headers](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/SPIRV-Headers)

Certain other dependencies will be fetched by CPM regardless. System packages *can* be used for these libraries, but many are either not packaged by most distributions OR have issues when used by the system:

* [SimpleIni](https://github.com/brofield/simpleini)
* [DiscordRPC](https://github.com/eden-emulator/discord-rpc)
* [cubeb](https://github.com/mozilla/cubeb)
* [libusb](https://github.com/libusb/libusb)
* [VulkanMemoryAllocator](https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/VulkanMemoryAllocator)
* [sirit](https://github.com/eden-emulator/sirit)
* [httplib](https://github.com/yhirose/cpp-httplib) - if `ENABLE_UPDATE_CHECKER` or `ENABLE_WEB_SERVICE` are on
  - This package is known to be broken on the AUR.
* [cpp-jwt](https://github.com/arun11299/cpp-jwt) 1.4+ - if `ENABLE_WEB_SERVICE` is on
* [unordered-dense](https://github.com/martinus/unordered_dense)
* [mcl](https://github.com/azahar-emu/mcl) - subject to removal

On amd64:
* [xbyak](https://github.com/herumi/xbyak) - 7.22 or earlier is recommended

On aarch64 OR if `DYNARMIC_TESTS` is on:
* [oaknut](https://github.com/merryhime/oaknut) 2.0.1+

On riscv64:
* [biscuit](https://github.com/lioncash/biscuit) 0.9.1+

## Commands

These are commands to install all necessary dependencies on various Linux and BSD distributions, as well as macOS. Always review what you're running before you hit Enter!

Notes for writers: Include build tools as well, assume user has NOTHING installed (i.e a fresh install) but that they have updated beforehand so no `upgrade && update` or equivalent should be mentioned - except for rolling release systems like Arch.

<summary>Alpine Linux</summary>

First, enable the community repository; [see here](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Repositories#Enabling_the_community_repository).
```sh
# Enable the community repository
setup-apkrepos -c
# Install
apk add g++ git cmake make mbedtls-dev mbedtls-static mesa-dev qt6-qtbase-dev qt6-qtbase-private-dev libquazip1-qt6 ffmpeg-dev libusb-dev libtool boost-dev sdl2-dev zstd-dev vulkan-utility-libraries spirv-tools-dev openssl-dev nlohmann-json lz4-dev opus-dev jq patch
```

`mbedtls-static` has to be specified otherwise `libeverest.a` and `libp256m.a` will fail to be found.

<details>
<summary>Void Linux</summary>

```sh
xbps-install -Su git make cmake clang pkg-config patch mbedtls-devel SPIRV-Tools-devel SPIRV-Headers lz4 liblz4-devel boost-devel ffmpeg6-devel catch2 Vulkan-Utility-Libraries Vulkan-Headers glslang openssl-devel SDL2-devel quazip-qt6-devel qt6-base-devel qt6-qt5compat-devel fmt-devel json-c++ libenet-devel libusb-devel

Yes, `nlohmann-json` is just named `json-c++`. Why?

<details>
<summary>NixOS</summary>

A convenience script is provided on the root of this project [shell.nix](../shell.nix). Run the usual `nix-shell`.

</details>
<details>
<summary>macOS</summary>

Install dependencies from **[Homebrew](https://brew.sh/)**

```sh
brew install autoconf automake boost ffmpeg fmt glslang hidapi libtool libusb lz4 ninja nlohmann-json openssl pkg-config qt@6 sdl2 speexdsp zlib zstd cmake Catch2 molten-vk vulkan-loader spirv-tools
```

If you are compiling on Intel Mac, or are using a Rosetta Homebrew installation, you must replace all references of `/opt/homebrew` with `/usr/local`.

To run with MoltenVK, install additional dependencies:
```sh
brew install molten-vk vulkan-loader
```

<summary>Solaris / OpenIndiana</summary>

Always consult [the OpenIndiana package list](https://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster/en/index.shtml) to cross-verify availability.

Run the usual update + install of essential toolings: `sudo pkg update && sudo pkg install git cmake`.

- **gcc**: `sudo pkg install developer/gcc-14`.
- **clang**: Version 20 is broken, use `sudo pkg install developer/clang-19`.

Then install the libraries: `sudo pkg install qt6 boost glslang libzip library/lz4 libusb-1 nlohmann-json openssl opus sdl2 zlib compress/zstd unzip pkg-config nasm autoconf mesa library/libdrm header-drm developer/fmt`.

<details>
<summary>MSYS2</summary>

* Open the `MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit` shell (`mingw64.exe`)
* Download and install all dependencies:
```
BASE="git make autoconf libtool automake-wrapper jq patch"

MINGW="qt6-base qt6-tools qt6-translations qt6-svg cmake toolchain clang python-pip openssl vulkan-memory-allocator vulkan-devel glslang boost fmt lz4 nlohmann-json zlib zstd enet opus mbedtls libusb unordered_dense"

packages="$BASE"
for pkg in $MINGW; do
    packages="$packages mingw-w64-x86_64-$pkg"
done

pacman -Syuu --needed --noconfirm $packages
```
* Notes:
  - Using `qt6-static` is possible but currently untested.
  - Other environments are entirely untested, but should theoretically work provided you install all the necessary packages.
  - GCC is proven to work better with the MinGW environment. If you choose to use Clang, you *may* be better off using the clang64 environment.
  - Add `qt-creator` to the `MINGW` variable to install Qt Creator. You can then create a Start Menu shortcut to the MinGW Qt Creator by running `powershell "\$s=(New-Object -COM WScript.Shell).CreateShortcut('C:\\ProgramData\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\\Qt Creator.lnk');\$s.TargetPath='C:\\msys64\\mingw64\\bin\\qtcreator.exe';\$s.Save()"` in Git Bash or MSYS2.
* Add MinGW binaries to the PATH if they aren't already:
  * `echo 'PATH=/mingw64/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc`
  * or `echo 'PATH=/mingw64/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.zshrc`
