Requirements:
curl
git >= 1.7.3
gtk-sharp2
mono-core >= 2.8
notify-sharp
webkit-sharp
Optional:

libappindicator
Download, unzip and open the SparkleShare bundle.
Download and run the installer and start SparkleShare from the Windows menu.
$ sudo apt-get install libappindicator0.1-cil-dev gtk-sharp2 mono-runtime mono-devel \
monodevelop libndesk-dbus1.0-cil-dev nant libnotify-cil-dev libgtk2.0-cil-dev mono-mcs

$ sudo yum install gtk-sharp2-devel mono-core mono-devel monodevelop \
ndesk-dbus-devel ndesk-dbus-glib-devel nautilus-python-devel nant \
notify-sharp-devel webkit-sharp-devel webkitgtk-devel libtool intltool
$ sudo apt-get install gtk-sharp2 mono-runtime mono-devel monodevelop \

$ sudo zypper install gtk-sharp2 mono-core mono-devel monodevelop \
ndesk-dbus-glib-devel python-nautilus-devel nant \
notify-sharp-devel webkit-sharp libwebkitgtk-devel libtool intltool
You can then build and install SparkleShare like this:
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr (or ./autogen.sh if you build from the repository)
$ make
$ sudo make install
Note: The Nautilus extension will only be enabled if you build with --prefix=/usr
.
Install Xcode, the Mono Framework and MonoDevelop.
Start MonoDevelop and install the MonoMac add-in (it's in MonoDevelop > Add-in Manager).
You may need to adjust some environment variables to let the build environment tools find mono:
$ export PATH=/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/bin:$PATH
$ export PKG_CONFIG=/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/bin/pkg-config
$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/lib/pkgconfig
Install git, automake, libtool and intltool using MacPorts:
$ sudo port install git-core automake intltool libtool
Start the first part of the build:
$ ./autogen.sh --enable-gtkui=no
$ make
Now that you have compiled the libraries, open SparkleShare/Mac/SparkleShare.sln
in
MonoDevelop and start the build.
To create the SparkleShare.app, make sure the project is focused and select Project from the menu bar and click "Create Mac Installer...". Make sure to select "Don't link assemblies".
Save the SparkleShare.app somewhere. Copy SparkleShare/Mac/config
to
SparkleShare.app/Contents/MonoBundle/config
(adjust the paths to where you saved the .app):
cp SparkleShare/Mac/config SparkleShare.app/Contents/MonoBundle/config
Copy /Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/lib/libintl.dylib
to SparkleShare.app/Contents/Resources
Now you should have a working bundle that you can run.
Install version 4.0 of the .NET Framework if you haven't already.
Install msysGit. Change the install location to C:\msysgit
and use the default settings for the other settings during the installation. Copy the C:\msysgit
directory into bin\msysgit
(in the SparkleShare source directory).
Open a command prompt and execute the following:
cd C:\path\to\SparkleShare\source
cd SparkleShare\Windows
build
C:\path\to\SparkleShare\source\bin
should now contain SparkleShare.exe
, which you can run.
To create an installer package, install WiX 3.5, restart Windows and run:
build installer
This will create SparkleShare.msi
in the same directory.
rm -Rf ~/SparkleShare
rm -Rf ~/.config/sparkleshare
Remove My Documents\SparkleShare
and AppData\Roaming\sparkleshare
(AppData
is hidden by default).
Have fun! :)
