| # Building PrusaSlicer on Mac OS
 | |
| 
 | |
| To build PrusaSlicer on Mac OS, you will need the following software:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - XCode
 | |
| - CMake
 | |
| - git
 | |
| - gettext
 | |
| 
 | |
| XCode is available through Apple's App Store, the other three tools are available on
 | |
| [brew](https://brew.sh/) (use `brew install cmake git gettext` to install them).
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Dependencies
 | |
| 
 | |
| PrusaSlicer comes with a set of CMake scripts to build its dependencies, it lives in the `deps` directory.
 | |
| Open a terminal window and navigate to PrusaSlicer sources directory and then to `deps`.
 | |
| Use the following commands to build the dependencies:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     mkdir build
 | |
|     cd build
 | |
|     cmake ..
 | |
|     make
 | |
| 
 | |
| This will create a dependencies bundle inside the `build/destdir` directory.
 | |
| You can also customize the bundle output path using the `-DDESTDIR=<some path>` option passed to `cmake`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Warning**: Once the dependency bundle is installed in a destdir, the destdir cannot be moved elsewhere.
 | |
| (This is because wxWidgets hardcodes the installation path.)
 | |
|

 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Building PrusaSlicer
 | |
| 
 | |
| If dependencies are built without errors, you can proceed to build PrusaSlicer itself.
 | |
| Go back to top level PrusaSlicer sources directory and use these commands:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     mkdir build
 | |
|     cd build
 | |
|     cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$PWD/../deps/build/destdir/usr/local"
 | |
| 
 | |
| The `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` is the path to the dependencies bundle but with `/usr/local` appended - if you set a custom path
 | |
| using the `DESTDIR` option, you will need to change this accordingly. **Warning:** the `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` needs to be an absolute path.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The CMake command above prepares PrusaSlicer for building from the command line.
 | |
| To start the build, use
 | |
| 
 | |
|     make -jN
 | |
| 
 | |
| where `N` is the number of CPU cores, so, for example `make -j4` for a 4-core machine.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alternatively, if you would like to use XCode GUI, modify the `cmake` command to include the `-GXcode` option:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     cmake .. -GXcode -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$PWD/../deps/build/destdir/usr/local"
 | |
| 
 | |
| and then open the `PrusaSlicer.xcodeproj` file.
 | |
| This should open up XCode where you can perform build using the GUI or perform other tasks.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Note on Mac OS X SDKs
 | |
| 
 | |
| By default PrusaSlicer builds against whichever SDK is the default on the current system.
 | |
| 
 | |
| This can be customized. The `CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT` option sets the path to the SDK directory location
 | |
| and the `CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET` option sets the target OS X system version (eg. `10.14` or similar).
 | |
| Note you can set just one value and the other will be guessed automatically.
 | |
| In case you set both, the two settings need to agree with each other. (Building with a lower deployment target
 | |
| is currently unsupported because some of the dependencies don't support this, most notably wxWidgets.)
 | |
| 
 | |
| Please note that the `CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET` and `CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT` options need to be set the same
 | |
| on both the dependencies bundle as well as PrusaSlicer itself.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Official Mac PrusaSlicer builds are currently built against SDK 10.9 to ensure compatibility with older Macs.
 | |
| 
 | |
| _Warning:_ XCode may be set such that it rejects SDKs bellow some version (silently, more or less).
 | |
| This is set in the property list file
 | |
| 
 | |
|     /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Info.plist
 | |
| 
 | |
| To remove the limitation, simply delete the key `MinimumSDKVersion` from that file.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| # TL; DR
 | |
| 
 | |
| Works on a fresh installation of MacOS Catalina 10.15.6
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Install [brew](https://brew.sh/):
 | |
| - Open Terminal
 | |
|     
 | |
| - Enter:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```brew install cmake git gettext
 | |
| brew update
 | |
| brew upgrade
 | |
| git clone https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/
 | |
| cd PrusaSlicer/deps
 | |
| mkdir build
 | |
| cd build
 | |
| cmake ..
 | |
| make
 | |
| cd ../..
 | |
| mkdir build
 | |
| cd build
 | |
| cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$PWD/../deps/build/destdir/usr/local"
 | |
| make
 | |
| src/prusa-slicer
