ACTS super-project with dependencies

This repository contains instructions to build ACTS including all dependencies, except for common ones usually found in package managers.

To get started, clone this repository like:

git clone --recursive git@github.com:acts-project/ci-dependencies.git

You can then run the main build script, where you can supply a custom build and install directory.

./build.sh [BUILD_DIR] [INSTALL_DIR] # both arguments are optional

The build script will build ACTS (which you checked out as a submodule with the command above). The source code is found in $REPOSITORY/acts, and can be modified.

Note

The script and CMake configuration will tell you about missing packages. If you're just getting started, try running one of these one-liners depending on your operating system:

Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install -y cmake build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev libexpat-dev libxerces-c-dev rsync libfreetype-dev liblzma-dev liblz4-dev libx11-dev libxpm-dev libxft-dev libxext-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libxml2-dev git libzstd-dev

AlmaLinux9

sudo dnf group install -y "Development Tools" && sudo dnf install -y epel-release && sudo dnf install -y cmake  openssl-devel zlib-devel ncurses-devel expat-devel xerces-c-devel rsync freetype-devel xz-devel lz4-devel libX11-devel libXpm-devel libXft-devel libXext-devel mesa-libGLU-devel libxml2-devel git libzstd-devel

macOS

1. Install homebrew from https://brew.sh

xcode-select --install
brew install cmake openssl@3 zlib zstd ncurses expat xerces-c rsync freetype xz lz4 libx11 libxml2 git"

If you want to run only the ACTS build, use

cmake --build $YOUR_BUILD_DIR --target acts
