The output directory name includes the current brand, variant, and architecture. The build system has several properties that can be configured, either in the environment or by passing the appropriate variables to rake. This is now all done using Rake, the qbs build system has been removed. 👉 In 2.3.0 and earlier, PIA used a qbs-based build system, along with postprocessing to generate final installer artifacts in the various platform build scripts.

The default target is stage, which stages the built client, daemon, and dependencies for local testing (but does not build installers, tests, etc.) Targetīuilds the client and daemon stages executables with dependencies in out/pia_debug_x86_64/stage for local testing.īuilds and runs unit tests produces code coverage artifacts if possible on the current platform (requires clang 6+)īuilds the final installer artifact, including code signing if configured.īuilds extra artifacts needed from CI but not part of any deployable artifact (currently translation exports)īuilds the integration test artifact (ZIP file containing deployable integration tests)īuilds all artifacts and copies to out/pia_debug_x86_64/artifacts (depends on most other targets, execpt test when coverage measurement isn't possible)

The following targets can be passed to rake.

To build releasable artifacts (always built under Debian 9, and optionally including arm64/armhf cross builds), set up Debian 9 chroots - see "Building for Distribution" - "Linux" belowīefore cloning the Git repository, first make sure Git LFS is installed and initialized:.

git (needed even in chroot build environment, to determine commit info for version).

libnl-3-dev (PIA can run without the library installed, but the headers are needed to build).

clang (or specific version, clang-7 recommended on Debian Stretch).

To build natively on the host, install the following development packages:.

If you want Qt Creator, also install Qt from qt.io.

PIA's build of Qt is recommended: desktop-dep-build releases.

Supported architectures: x86_64, armhf, arm64.

Ruby, can be installed using Homebrew with brew install ruby.

The VS installer doesn't include the Console Debugger (CDB), which is needed to debug in Qt Creator.

The entire product is built using rake, using the supporting framework in the rake/ directory.ĭependencies such as OpenVPN and the Windows TAP driver are included as precompiled binaries under the deps directory in this project for convenience. The client is intended to be built on the target platform Windows builds are built on Windows, macOS builds on macOS, and Linux builds on Ubuntu. Qt and Qt Quick tend to be more memory and CPU efficient compared to web-based UI frameworks like Electron or NW.js. The client GUI is based on Qt Quick, which uses declarative markup language and JavaScript and offers hardware accelerated rendering when available.

The project uses Qt 5 for cross-platform development, both in the client and daemon.

No matter how many users are active on a machine, they control the same single VPN instance and share a single PIA account. The client meanwhile runs in each active user's desktop and consists almost entirely of presentation logic. The daemon runs a single instance on the machine and is responsible for not only network configuration but also settings and account handling, talking to PIA servers as necessary. It consists of an unprivileged thin GUI client (the "client") and a privileged background service/daemon (the "daemon"). This is the desktop client for the Private Internet Access VPN service.
