Build Guide

Local build instructions for Raspberry Pi

Building all components of OpenDash should be in the following order:

1. aasdk
2. qt-gstreamer
3. OpenAuto
4. Dash

Having aasdk built and installed first, is a prequisite for this task. Please complete the necessary aasdk steps before proceeding here.

Before building OpenAuto, build Qt-GStreamer with the following instructions:

1. Install the pre-requisite packages:

sudo apt install qt5-default qml-module-qtquick2 qtdeclarative5-dev qtmultimedia5-dev qml-module-qtquick* qml-module-qtmultimedia qml-module-qt-labs-settings qml-module-qt-labs-folderlistmodel libqt5xmlpatterns5-dev qml-module-qtbluetooth libqt5charts5 qml-module-qtcharts build-essential openssl libglib2.0-dev libboost-dev libudev-dev libgstreamer1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-base-apps gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-alsa libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio libfaad-dev libfftw3-dev librtlsdr-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev mesa-common-dev libglu1-mesa-dev zlib1g-dev portaudio19-dev libsndfile1-dev libsamplerate0-dev bluez bluez-obexd pulseaudio-module-bluetooth  qml-module-qtbluetooth qml-module-org-kde-bluezqt qtbase5-private-dev libcanberra-dev libgconf2-dev libpulse-dev libmp3lame-dev libsoapysdr-dev libmpg123-dev

2. Clone the qt-gstreamer repo:

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/qt-gstreamer

3. Change to the cloned directory:

cd qt-gstreamer

4. Create the build directory then change to it:

mkdir build
cd build

5. Run the following cmake command:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib/$(dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH) \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_INCLUDEDIR=include -DQT_VERSION=5 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-std=c++11

6. Compile qt-gstreamer:

make -j4

7. Install and scan for recently installed directory:

sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

Continue with building OpenAuto:

1. Install the pre-requisite packages:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install cmake build-essential git

sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev libusb-1.0.0-dev libssl-dev cmake libprotobuf-dev protobuf-c-compiler protobuf-compiler libqt5multimedia5 libqt5multimedia5-plugins libqt5multimediawidgets5 qtmultimedia5-dev libqt5bluetooth5 libqt5bluetooth5-bin qtconnectivity5-dev pulseaudio librtaudio-dev

2. Clone the OpenAuto repo:

git clone https://github.com/OpenDsh/openauto

3. Change to the cloned directory:

cd openauto

5. Run the following cmake command:

cmake -DRPI_BUILD=TRUE -DGST_BUILD=TRUE .

6. Compile OpenAuto:

make

7. Install:

sudo make install

The executable binary can then be found at ~/openauto/bin/autoapp
