------------------------------------------------------------------------

This guide uses UPLOADR to indicate the root of the Flickr Uploadr
source tree on your filesystem.  It probably shouldn't contain spaces.

You can obtain the Flickr Uploadr source code from either a tarball or
from Subversion.

Download tarball:
  http://flickr.com/tools/uploadr/

Checkout from Subversion:
  $ svn co http://code.flickr.com/svn/trunk/uploadr UPLOADR


XULRunner
------------------------------------------------------------------------

XULRunner trunk builds:
  ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/nightly/latest-trunk/

Note: You want the version *without* 'sdk' in the name.

Install the Mac version of XULRunner, which will live in
/Library/Frameworks.  Then pull it into your fake Uploadr distribution:
  $ mkdir UPLOADR/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Frameworks
  $ sudo mv /Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework \
    UPLOADR/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Frameworks

Install MacPorts if you haven't already:
  http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports/downloads/MacPorts-1.5.0/

The Mozilla tools require the IDL library:
  $ sudo port install libidl (sudo /opt/local/bin/port install libidl)


Gecko SDK
------------------------------------------------------------------------

To build the XPCOM components you will need the Gecko SDK. For PPC Mac:
  http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Gecko_SDK#Downloading

For Intel Mac:
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Gecko_SDK#Downloading
was http://www.oxymoronical.com/view/1114

Place the SDK(s) appropriately:
  UPLOADR/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Resources/gecko-sdk.mac (Intel Mac)
  UPLOADR/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Resources/gecko-sdk.ppc (PPC Mac)

These SDKs are from the Gecko 1.8/1.9 series and so are only safe to use
if the XPCOM components use only frozen interfaces.  Fortunately,
Uploadr currently falls into this category.


API Keys
------------------------------------------------------------------------

You'll need your own API key and secret from Flickr to build Uploadr.
These can be obtained at http://flickr.com/services/api/.  The key
and secret must be placed in flKey.cpp in the spaces provided. Copy
flKey.cpp.template to flKey.cpp and insert your keys:

  UPLOADR/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Resources/components/flKey.cpp.template
  UPLOADR/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Resources/components/flKey.cpp

The API key is stored as a string.  The secret is stored as individual
characters so it is not easily readable from the binary.

There are blocks to keep both a Windows and Mac key/secret in the same
source file (you certainly don't have to, though).  This is mainly
important for the official builds.



GraphicsMagick
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Install prerequisites with MacPorts:
  $ sudo port install jpeg configure.flags=-O3
  $ sudo port install tiff configure.flags=-O3
  $ sudo port install libpng

Download GraphicsMagick source (try and stick with 1.1.10):
  ftp://ftp.graphicsmagick.org/pub/GraphicsMagick/1.1/GraphicsMagick-1.1.10.tar.bz2

jde - trying 1.2.5 (ftp://ftp.graphicsmagick.org/pub/GraphicsMagick/1.2/GraphicsMagick-1.2.5.tar.bz2) to match WINDOWS

Configure and install GraphicsMagick:
  $ ./configure \
    CFLAGS="-O3" \
    CXXFLAGS="-O3" \
    CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include -I/usr/local/include" \
    LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib" \
    --without-x --without-perl \
    --disable-installed \
    --without-dps --without-fpx --without-jbig --without-jp2 \
    --without-lcms --without-trio --without-ttf --without-wmf \
    --with-quantum-depth=16
  $ make && sudo make install

Because of dynamic/static linker weirdness, after building GraphicsMagick,
move libjpeg.dylib, libtiff.dylib and libpng.dylib out of the way:
  $ sudo mv /opt/local/lib/libjpeg.dylib /opt/local/lib/libjpeg.dylib.sav
  $ sudo mv /opt/local/lib/libtiff.dylib /opt/local/lib/libtiff.dylib.sav
  $ sudo mv /opt/local/lib/libpng.dylib /opt/local/lib/libpng.dylib.sav

For Mac, the magic.mgk, modules.mgk and delegates.mgk files must be in
Contents/lib/GraphicsMagick-<version>/config/.  Like on Windows, these
are included in the tarball/Subversion trees.



Exiv2
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Download Exiv2 source from:
  http://exiv2.org/download.html

In Unix-land, it's easy!
  $ sudo port install libiconv
  $ sudo port install expat
  $ sudo port install xml2 (jde - does not exist: so libxml2?)
  $ ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --disable-shared --with-expat=/opt/local
  $ make && sudo make install

Again because of static linker weirdness, after building Exiv2, move the
dynamic libraries out of the way:
  $ sudo mv /opt/local/lib/libiconv.dylib /opt/local/lib/libiconv.dylib.sav
  $ sudo mv /opt/local/lib/libexpat.dylib /opt/local/lib/libexpat.dylib.sav
  $ sudo mv /opt/local/lib/libxml2.dylib /opt/local/lib/libxml2.dylib.sav


FFmpeg
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Check out the most recent version of FFmpeg:
  $ svn co svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg
  $ cd ffmpeg

Then build:
  $ ./configure --disable-ffserver --disable-ffplay --enable-gpl \
    --disable-vhook --disable-mmx --enable-static --disable-shared  \
    --extra-cflags=-fno-common --disable-debug --enable-swscale
  $ make && sudo make install

jde : encountered:
> make(6189) malloc: *** vm_allocate(size=4272951296) failed (error
> code=3)
> make(6189) malloc: *** error: can't allocate region
> make(6189) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in szone_error to debug
> make: *** virtual memory exhausted.  Stop.
>

$ which make
/usr/bin/make
$ make --version
GNU Make 3.80

port install gmake
$ which gmake
/opt/local/bin/gmake
$ gmake --version
GNU Make 3.81

and used gmake instead of make


Building XPCOM components
------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you make any changes to the IDL files defining the XPCOM interfaces,
you must increment the BuildID defined in:
  UPLOADR/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Resources/application.ini

Use the Makefile in:
  UPLOADR/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Resources/components/

http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Gecko_SDK#Issues_with_the_OS_X_SDK

Running `make ppc gm ; make ppc key` will build the PPC binaries as
gm.dylib.ppc and key.dylib.ppc.  `make mac gm ; make mac key` will
build gm.dylib.mac and key.dylib.mac.  These architecture-dependent
files can be combined on an Intel Mac to leave gm.dylib and key.dylib
by running `make universal gm ; make universal key`.



Running Flickr Uploadr
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The app can be launched by double-clicking on MacUploadr.app in Finder.

Launch Uploadr from Terminal to get debug windows:
  $ chmod a+w MacUploadr.app/Contents/MacOS/xulrunner
  $ chmod a+x MacUploadr.app/Contents/MacOS/xulrunner
  $ MacUploadr.app/Contents/MacOS/xulrunner -jsconsole


Packaging
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The nice background image for the DMGs must be recreated each time you
change version numbers.
  o Start Disk Utility and create a new image called "Flickr Uploadr
    $(VERSION)" (substitute your version)
  o Create a folder there called "Flickr Uploadr.app" and a symbolic
    link called "Applications"
  o Copy one of the installer images from mac_installer/ in as ".i.png"
  o Create a symbolic link to that image as "i.png"
  o Open the image with Finder and press Command+J to set folder options
      o Select "This window only"
      o Set the "Icon size" to 128px
      o Uncheck "Snap to grid"
      o Set the background picture to your "i.png" symbolic link (this
        is rather finicky)
      o Close the settings window
  o Delete the "i.png" symbolic link (the hidden file will remain)
  o Arrange the icons appropriately
  o Close the window

After all of that, copy the .DS_Store file into your source tree, the
Makefile will take care of everything else (substitute your version):
  $ cp /Volumes/Flickr\ Uploadr\ $(VERSION)/.DS_Store \
    UPLOADR/mac_installer/DS_Store

Unmount and delete the disk image you created.

One-command builds for all eight languages:
  $ make mac all

NOTE: This will fail at the MAR build steps, unless you have the Mozilla
tools built and installed. See README.updates for this, or you can
skip the MAR build step (recommended for outside developers):
  $ make mac all-build

Or to build a single language:
  $ make mac build en-US
