Trying Codevis on Fedora

[abitrolly]

Hi Tomaz. Saw your FOSSASIA talk, wanted to give it a try. However the "Install on Linux" link from https://apps.kde.org/en-gb/codevis/ (appstream://org.kde.codevis) doesn't work for Fedora 39.

$ appstreamcli install appstream://org.kde.codevis 
Unable to find component with ID 'appstream://org.kde.codevis'!
$ appstreamcli install org.kde.codevis 
Unable to find component with ID 'org.kde.codevis'!

So how to install it? Maybe there are plans to upload the package to Flatpak?

i plan to but i have no idea how. ill see if i can do that tomorrow. but its easy to compile on fedora, ill be tomorrow on the second floor of the building, we can try to work out how to setup for you.

Unfortunately I couldn't make it there, so I watch online.

So I tried to compile from source using manual build instruction, and it fails with missing dependencies as expected.

$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$(pwd)/codevis/

There is a link to docker images with dependencies, but the link is 404. https://invent.kde.org/sdk/codevis/-/blob/packing

Tried to build AppImage using the Dockerfile and got the same CMake error about ECM.

podman build . -t codevis-appimage -f packaging/appimage/Dockerfile

[tcanabrava]

ecm is "extra-cmake-modules", a kde library for cmake. you will need to install the development libraries for kf5 or kf6. allow me to work tomorrow for the flatpack build

Thanks for the quick response.

I found ECM install instructions in packaging/centos7/Dockerfile, copy pasted it, but that was not enough. Compiling centos7 Dockerfile didn't work either. Looks like CI doesn't run these files. That's why they are outdated. CI uses its own way to specify dependencies - https://community.kde.org/Infrastructure/Continuous_Integration_System#The_.kde-ci.yml_file - would be nice to reuse that.

Anyways, I did everything I could. Now I shall wait for the flatpak. )

[tcanabrava]

just to make sure, you are using the code from invent.kde.org/sdk/codevis and not from github? i trued to help some people yesterday and their code was from github / wrong repository

Not from GitHub, right,

$ git remote -v
origin	https://invent.kde.org/sdk/codevis (fetch)
origin	https://invent.kde.org/sdk/codevis (push)

Hi Tomaz. My tabs from FOSSASIA are still open. :D So I am just checking if you've managed to find time for uploading Codevis to https://flathub.org/ ?

[tcanabrava]

I have just added flatpak support: https://invent.kde.org/sdk/codevis/-/merge_requests/190 I need to see if the CI passes, tough.
