On Linux, install the development packages for FreeType, Cairo, and GLib. For
|
|
|
|
|
example, on Ubuntu / Debian, you would do:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install meson pkg-config ragel gtk-doc-tools gcc g++ libfreetype6-dev libglib2.0-dev libcairo2-dev
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
whereas on Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, and other Red Hat based systems you would do:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ sudo dnf install meson pkgconfig gtk-doc gcc gcc-c++ freetype-devel glib2-devel cairo-devel
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and on ArchLinux and Manjaro:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ sudo pacman -Suy meson pkg-config ragel gcc freetype2 glib2 glib2-devel cairo
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On macOS:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
brew install pkg-config ragel gtk-doc freetype glib cairo meson
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then use meson to build the project and run the tests, like:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
meson build && ninja -Cbuild && meson test -Cbuild
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Windows, meson can build the project like above if a working MSVC's cl.exe
|
|
|
|
|
(`vcvarsall.bat`) or gcc/clang is already on your path, and if you use
|
|
|
|
|
something like `meson build --wrap-mode=default` it fetches and compiles most
|
|
|
|
|
of the dependencies also. It is recommended to install CMake either manually
|
|
|
|
|
or via the Visual Studio installer when building with MSVC, using meson.

|
Our CI configurations are also a good source of learning how to build HarfBuzz.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is also amalgamated source provided with HarfBuzz which reduces whole process
|
|
|
|
|
of building HarfBuzz to `g++ src/harfbuzz.cc -fno-exceptions` but there is
|
|
|
|
|
no guarantee provided with buildability and reliability of features you get.
