# Building KiCad from Source # If you are a user and not a developer, please consider using one of the prebuilt packages of KiCad which can be found at the [download][] page on the [KiCad website][]. Building KiCad from source is not for the faint of heart and is not recommended unless you have reasonable software development experience. This document contains the instructions on how to build KiCad from source on the supported platforms. It is not intended as a guide for installing or building [library dependencies](#library_dependencies). Please consult your platforms documentation for installing packages or the source code when building the library dependencies. Currently the supported platforms are Windows Versions 7-10, just about any version of Linux, and macOS 10.9-10.13. You may be able to build KiCad on other platforms but it is not supported. On Windows and Linux the [GNU GCC][] is the only supported compiler and on macOS [Clang][] is the only supported compiler. [TOC] # Development Tools # {#development_tools} Before you begin building KiCad, there are a few tools required in addition to your compiler. Some of these tools are required to build from source and some are optional. ## CMake Build Configuration Tool ## {#cmake} [CMake][] is the build configuration and makefile generation tool used by KiCad. It is required. ## Git Version Control System ## {#git} The official source code repository is hosted on [GitLab][] and requires [git][] to get the latest source. If you prefer to use [GitHub][] there is a read only mirror of the official KiCad repository. The previous official hosting location at [Launchpad][] is still active as a mirror. Changes should be submitted as [merge requests][] via GitLab. The development team will not review changes submitted on GitHub or Launchpad as those platforms are mirrors only. ## Doxygen Code Documentation Generator ## {#doxygen_section} The KiCad source code is documented using [Doxygen][] which parses the KiCad source code files and builds a dependency tree along with the source documentation into HTML. Doxygen is only required if you are going to build the KiCad documentation. ## SWIG Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator ## {#swig} [SWIG][] is used to generate the Python scripting language extensions for KiCad. SWIG is not required if you are not going to build the KiCad scripting extension. # Library Dependencies # {#library_dependencies} This section includes a list of library dependencies required to build KiCad. It does not include any dependencies of the libraries. Please consult the library's documentation for any additional dependencies. Some of these libraries are optional depending on you build configuration. This is not a guide on how to install the library dependencies using you systems package management tools or how to build the library from source. Consult the appropriate documentation to perform these tasks. ## wxWidgets Cross Platform GUI Library## {#wxwidgets} [wxWidgets][] is the graphical user interface (GUI) library used by KiCad. The current minimum version is 3.0.0. However, 3.0.2 should be used whenever possible as there are some known bugs in prior versions that can cause problems on some platforms. Please note that there are also some platform specific patches that must be applied before building wxWidgets from source. These patches can be found in the [patches folder][] in the KiCad source. These patches are named by the wxWidgets version and platform name they should be applied against. wxWidgets must be built with the --with-opengl option. If you installed the packaged version of wxWidgets on your system, verify that it was built with this option. ## Boost C++ Libraries ## {#boost} The [Boost][] C++ library is required only if you intend to build KiCad with the system installed version of Boost instead of the default internally built version. If you use the system installed version of Boost, version 1.56 or greater is required. Please note there are some platform specific patches required to build a working Boost library. These patches can be found in the [patches folder][] in the KiCad source. These patches are named by the platform name they should be applied against. ## GLEW OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library ## {#glew} The [OpenGL Extension Wrangler][GLEW] is an OpenGL helper library used by the KiCad graphics abstraction library [GAL] and is always required to build KiCad. ## ZLib Library ## {#zlib} The [ZLib][] development library is used by KiCad to handle compressed 3d models (.stpz and .wrz files) and is always required to build KiCad. ## GLM OpenGL Mathematics Library ## {#glm} The [OpenGL Mathematics Library][GLM] is an OpenGL helper library used by the KiCad graphics abstraction library [GAL] and is always required to build KiCad. ## GLUT OpenGL Utility Toolkit Library ## {#glut} The [OpenGL Utility Toolkit][GLUT] is an OpenGL helper library used by the KiCad graphics abstraction library [GAL] and is always required to build KiCad. ## Cairo 2D Graphics Library ## {#cairo} The [Cairo][] 2D graphics library is used as a fallback rendering canvas when OpenGL is not available and is always required to build KiCad. ## Python Programming Language ## {#python} The [Python][] programming language is used to provide scripting support to KiCad. It needs to be installed unless the [KiCad scripting](#kicad_scripting) build configuration option is disabled. ## wxPython Library ## {#wxpython} The [wxPython][] library is used to provide a scripting console for Pcbnew. It needs to be installed unless the [wxPython scripting](#wxpython_scripting) build configuration option is disabled. When building KiCad with wxPython support, make sure the version of the wxWidgets library and the version of wxPython installed on your system are the same. Mismatched versions have been known to cause runtime issues. ## Curl Multi-Protocol File Transfer Library ## {#curl} The [Curl Multi-Protocol File Transfer Library][libcurl] is used to provide secure internet file transfer access for the [GitHub][] plug in. This library needs to be installed unless the GitHub plug build option is disabled. ## OpenCascade Library ## {#oce} The [OpenCascade Community Edition (OCE)][liboce] is used to provide support for loading and saving 3D model file formats such as STEP. This library needs to be installed unless the OCE build option is disabled. [Open CASCSADE Technology (OCC)][libocc] should also work as an alternative to OCE. Selection of library Cascade library can be specified at build time. See the [STEP/IGES support](#oce_opt) section. ## Ngspice Library ## {#ngspice} The [Ngspice Library][libngspice] is used to provide Spice simulation support in the schematic editor. Make sure the the version of ngspice library used was built with the--with-ngshared option. This library needs to be installed unless the Spice build option is disabled. # KiCad Build Configuration Options # {#build_opts} KiCad has many build options that can be configured to build different options depending on the availability of support for each option on a given platform. This section documents these options and their default values. ## Scripting Support ## {#scripting_opt} The KICAD_SCRIPTING option is used to enable building the Python scripting support into Pcbnew. This options is enabled by default, and will disable all other KICAD_SCRIPTING_* options when it is disabled. ## Python 3 Scripting Support ## {#python3} The KICAD_SCRIPTING_PYTHON3 option is used to enable using Python 3 for the scripting support instead of Python 2. This option is disabled by default and only is relevant if [KICAD_SCRIPTING](#scripting_opt) is enabled. ## Scripting Module Support ## {#scripting_mod_opt} The KICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES option is used to enable building and installing the Python modules supplied by KiCad. This option is enabled by default, but will be disabled if [KICAD_SCRIPTING](#scripting_opt) is disabled. ## wxPython Scripting Support ## {#wxpython_opt} The KICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON option is used to enable building the wxPython interface into Pcbnew including the wxPython console. This option is enabled by default, but will be disabled if [KICAD_SCRIPTING](#scripting_opt) is disabled. ## wxPython Phoenix Scripting Support ## {#wxpython_phoenix} The KICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON_PHOENIX option is used to enable building the wxPython interface with the new Phoenix binding instead of the legacy one. This option is disabled by default, and enabling it requires [KICAD_SCRIPTING](#scripting_opt) to be enabled. ## Python Scripting Action Menu Support ## {#python_action_menu_opt} The KICAD_SCRIPTING_ACTION_MENU option allows Python scripts to be added directly to the Pcbnew menu. This option is enabled by default, but will be disabled if [KICAD_SCRIPTING](#scripting_opt) is disabled. Please note that this option is highly experimental and can cause Pcbnew to crash if Python scripts create an invalid object state within Pcbnew. ## GitHub Plugin ## {#github_opt} The BUILD_GITHUB_PLUGIN option is used to control if the GitHub plug in is built. This option is enabled by default. ## Integrated Spice simulator ## {#spice_opt} The KICAD_SPICE option is used to control if the Spice simulator interface for Eeschema is built. When this option is enabled, it requires [ngspice][] to be available as a shared library. This option is enabled by default. ## STEP/IGES support for the 3D viewer ## {#oce_opt} The KICAD_USE_OCE is used for the 3D viewer plugin to support STEP and IGES 3D models. Build tools and plugins related to OpenCascade Community Edition (OCE) are enabled with this option. When enabled it requires [liboce][] to be available, and the location of the installed OCE library to be passed via the OCE_DIR flag. This option is enabled by default. Alternatively KICAD_USE_OCC can be used instead of OCE. Both options are not supposed to be enabled at the same time. ## Development Analysis Tools ## {#dev_tools} KiCad can be compiled with support for several features to aid in the catching and debugging of runtime memory issues ### Valgrind support The KICAD_USE_VALGRIND option is used to enable Valgrind's stack annotation feature in the tool framework. This provides the ability for Valgrind to trace memory allocations and accesses in the tool framework and reduce the number of false positives reported. This option is disabled by default. ### C++ standard library debugging KiCad provides two options to enable debugging assertions contained in the GCC C++ standard library: KICAD_STDLIB_DEBUG and KICAD_STDLIB_LIGHT_DEBUG. Both these options are disabled by default, and only one should be turned on at a time with KICAD_STDLIB_DEBUG taking precedence. The KICAD_STDLIB_LIGHT_DEBUG option enables the light-weight standard library assertions by passing `_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS ` into CXXFLAGS. This enables things such as bounds checking on strings, arrays and vectors, as well as null pointer checks for smart pointers. The KICAD_STDLIB_DEBUG option enables the full set of standard library assertions by passing `_GLIBCXX_DEBUG` into CXXFLAGS. This enables full debugging support for the standard library. ### Address Sanitizer support The KICAD_SANITIZE option enables Address Sanitizer support to trace memory allocations and accesses to identify problems. This option is disabled by default. The Address Sanitizer contains several runtime options to tailor its behavior that are described in more detail in its [documentation](https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizerFlags). This option is not supported on all build systems, and is known to have problems when using mingw. ## Demos and Examples ## {#demo_install_opt} The KiCad source code includes some demos and examples to showcase the program. You can choose whether install them or not with the KICAD_INSTALL_DEMOS option. You can also select where to install them with the KICAD_DEMOS variable. On Linux the demos are installed in $PREFIX/share/kicad/demos by default. ## Quality assurance (QA) unit tests ## {#quality_assurance_tests_opt} The KICAD_BUILD_QA_TESTS option allows building unit tests binaries for quality assurance as part of the default build. This option is enabled by default. If this option is disabled, the QA binaries can still be built by manually specifying the target. For example, with `make`: * Build all QA binaries: `make qa_all` * Build a specific test: `make qa_pcbnew` * Build all unit tests: `make qa_all_tests` * Build all test tool binaries: `make qa_all_tools` For more information about testing KiCad, see [this page](testing.md). ## KiCad Build Version ## {#build_version_opt} The KiCad version string is defined by the output of `git describe --dirty` when git is available or the version string defined in CMakeModules/KiCadVersion.cmake with the value of KICAD_VERSION_EXTRA appended to the former. If the KICAD_VERSION_EXTRA variable is not defined, it is not appended to the version string. If the KICAD_VERSION_EXTRA variable is defined it is appended along with a leading '-' to the full version string as follows: (KICAD_VERSION[-KICAD_VERSION_EXTRA]) The build script automatically creates the version string information from the [git][] repository information as follows: (5.0.0-rc2-dev-100-g5a33f0960) | output of `git describe --dirty` if git is available. ## KiCad Config Directory ## {#config_dir_opt} The default KiCad configuration directory is `kicad`. On Linux this is located at `~/.config/kicad`, on MSW, this is `C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\kicad` and on MacOS, this is `~/Library/Preferences/kicad`. If the installation package would like to, it may specify an alternate configuration name instead of `kicad`. This may be useful for versioning the configuration parameters and allowing the use of, e.g. `kicad5` and `kicad6` concurrently without losing configuration data. This is set by specifying the KICAD_CONFIG_DIR string at compile time. # Getting the KiCad Source Code ## {#getting_src} There are several ways to get the KiCad source. If you want to build the stable version you can down load the source archive from the [GitLab][] repository. Use tar or some other archive program to extract the source on your system. If you are using tar, use the following command: tar -xaf kicad_src_archive.tar.xz If you are contributing directly to the KiCad project on GitLab, you can create a local copy on your machine by using the following command: git clone https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad.git Here is a list of source links: Stable release archives: https://kicad-pcb.org/download/source/ Development branch: https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/tree/master GitHub mirror: https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-source-mirror # Building KiCad on Linux # {#build_linux} To perform a full build on Linux, run the following commands: cd mkdir -p build/release mkdir build/debug # Optional for debug build. cd build/release cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ ../../ make sudo make install If the CMake configuration fails, determine the missing dependencies and install them on your system. By default, CMake sets the install path on Linux to /usr/local. Use the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX option to specify a different install path. # Building KiCad on Windows # {#build_windows} The preferred Windows build environment is currently [MSYS2][]. [Visual Studio][] with [vcpkg][] is also a supported build environment but does not yet fully support all KiCad features. ## Building using MSYS2 ## {#msys2_build} ### Setup The [MSYS2][] project provides packages for all of the require dependencies to build KiCad. To setup the [MSYS2][] build environment, depending on your system download and run either the [MSYS2 32-bit Installer][] or the [MSYS2 64-bit Installer][]. After the installer is finished, update to the latest package versions by running the `msys2_shell.cmd` file located in the MSYS2 install path and running the command `pacman -Syu`. If the msys2-runtime package is updated, close the shell and run `msys2_shell.cmd`. ### Building The following commands assume you are building for 64-bit Windows, and that you already have the KiCad source code in a folder called `kicad-source` in your home directory. See below for changes if you need to build for 32-bit instead. Run `mingw64.exe` from the MSYS2 install path. At the command prompt run the the following commands: pacman -S base-devel \ git \ mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake \ mingw-w64-x86_64-doxygen \ mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc \ mingw-w64-x86_64-python2 \ mingw-w64-x86_64-pkg-config \ mingw-w64-x86_64-swig \ mingw-w64-x86_64-boost \ mingw-w64-x86_64-cairo \ mingw-w64-x86_64-glew \ mingw-w64-x86_64-curl \ mingw-w64-x86_64-wxPython \ mingw-w64-x86_64-wxWidgets \ mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain \ mingw-w64-x86_64-glm \ mingw-w64-x86_64-oce \ mingw-w64-x86_64-ngspice \ mingw-w64-x86_64-zlib cd kicad-source mkdir -p build/release mkdir build/debug # Optional for debug build. cd build/release cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -G "MSYS Makefiles" \ -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/mingw64 \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/mingw64 \ -DDEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH=/mingw64 \ ../../ make -j N install # Where N is the number of concurrent threads that your system can handle For 32-bit builds, run `mingw32.exe` and change `x86_64` to `i686` in the package names and change the paths in the cmake configuration from `/mingw64` to `/mingw32`. For debug builds, run the cmake command with `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug` from the `build/debug` folder. ### Known MSYS2 Build Issues ## {#known_issues_msys2} There are some known issues that are specific to MSYS2. This section provides a list of the currently known issues when building KiCad using MSYS2. #### 64-bit Package of Boost 1.59 ### {#ki_msys2_64bit_boost} The context library of the x86_64 package of Boost version 1.59 is broken and will cause KiCad to crash. You must downgrade to version 1.57 by running the command: pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/mingw-w64-x86_64-boost-1.57.0-4-any.pkg.tar.xz If the file mingw-w64-x86_64-boost-1.57.0-4-any.pkg.tar.xz is no longer in your pacman cache, you will have to download it from the [MSYS2 64-bit SourceForge repo][]. You should also configure pacman to prevent upgrading the 64-bit Boost package by adding: IgnorePkg = mingw-w64-x86_64-boost to your /etc/pacman.conf file. #### Building with Boost 1.70 ### {#ki_msys2_boost_1_70} There is an issue building KiCad with Boost version 1.70 due to CMake not defining the proper link libraries during configuration. Boost 1.70 can be used but `-DBoost_NO_BOOST_CMAKE=ON` needs to be added during CMake configuration to insure the link libraries are properly generated. #### Building OCE from source KiCad requires OCE by default, and the version installed by `pacman` can cause build errors in x86_64 systems as of March 2018. In order to work around this, you can build OCE from source on these systems. Building OCE on Windows requires that you place the source code in a very short directory path, otherwise you will run into errors caused by the maximum path length on Windows. In the example below, the `MINGW-packages` repository is cloned to `/c/mwp`, which is equivalent to `C:\mwp` in Windows path terminology. You may wish to change the destination of the `git clone` command if you do not want to place it on the root of your C drive, but if you run in to strange compilation errors about missing files, it is probably because your path is too long. git clone https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages /c/mwp cd /c/mwp/mingw-w64-oce makepkg-mingw -is ## Building using Visual Studio (2019) ## {#vs_build} ### Environment Setup ## {#env_setup_vs} #### Visual Studio You must first install [Visual Studio][] with the **Desktop development with C++** feature set installed. #### vcpkg **If you are new to vcpkg** you must, pick a spot on your system to put it. Then run these three commands ``` git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg .\vcpkg\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat .\vcpkg\vcpkg integrate install ``` which will give you a vcpkg install ready to use with the next steps ### KiCad Specific Setup ## {#vs_setup_steps} vcpkg defaults to x86-windows even on 64-bit machines, it is advised for ease of use you set a **USER** or **SYSTEM** environment variable with the name **VCPKG_DEFAULT_TRIPLET** and value **x64-windows** KiCad still supports 32-bit builds for now but may not in the future, thus 64-bit is preferred. #### 1. Install vcpkg packages The following packages are required for vcpkg ``` .\vcpkg install boost .\vcpkg install cairo .\vcpkg install curl .\vcpkg install glew .\vcpkg install gettext .\vcpkg install glm .\vcpkg install icu .\vcpkg install ngspice .\vcpkg install opencascade .\vcpkg install opengl .\vcpkg install openssl .\vcpkg install python3 .\vcpkg install wxwidgets .\vcpkg install zlib ``` If you did not set the **VCPKG_DEFAULT_TRIPLET** environment variable, you will have to append :x64-windows to end of each packages name, `boost:x64-windows` for example. #### 2. CMakeSettings.json Contained in the build root is a `CMakeSettings.json.sample`, copy and rename this file to `CMakeSettings.json` Edit `CMakeSettings.json` update the VcPkgDir environment variable up top to match the location of your vcpkg clone. ``` { "VcPkgDir": "D:/vcpkg/" }, ``` #### 3. "Open Folder" in Visual Studio Launch Visual Studio (only after completing the above steps). When the initial wizard launches, select to **Open a local folder** This is the correct way to make Visual Studio directly handle *CMake* projects. # Building KiCad on macOS # {#build_osx} As of V5, building and packaging for macOS can be done using [kicad-mac-builder][], which downloads, patches, builds, and packages for macOS. It is used to create the official releases and nightlies, and it reduces the complexity of setting up a build environment to a command or two. Usage of kicad-mac-builder is detailed at on its website. If you wish to build without kicad-mac-builder, please use the following and its source code as reference. Building on macOS requires building dependency libraries that require patching in order to work correctly. In the following set of commands, replace the macOS version number (i.e. 10.11) with the desired minimum version. It may be easiest to build for the same version you are running. KiCad currently won't work with a stock version of wxWidgets that can be downloaded or installed by package managers like MacPorts or Homebrew. To avoid having to deal with patches a [KiCad fork of wxWidgets][] is being maintained on GitHub. All the needed patches and some other fixes/improvements are contained in the `kicad/macos-wx-3.0` branch. To perform a wxWidgets build, execute the following commands: cd git clone -b kicad/macos-wx-3.0 https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/wxWidgets.git mkdir wx-build cd wx-build ../wxWidgets/configure \ --prefix=`pwd`/../wx-bin \ --with-opengl \ --enable-aui \ --enable-html \ --enable-stl \ --enable-richtext \ --with-libjpeg=builtin \ --with-libpng=builtin \ --with-regex=builtin \ --with-libtiff=builtin \ --with-zlib=builtin \ --with-expat=builtin \ --without-liblzma \ --with-macosx-version-min=10.11 \ --enable-universal-binary=i386,x86_64 \ CC=clang \ CXX=clang++ make make install If everything works you will find the wxWidgets binaries in `/wx-bin`. Now, build a basic KiCad without Python scripting using the following commands: cd mkdir -p build/release mkdir build/debug # Optional for debug build. cd build/release cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang \ -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ \ -DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.11 \ -DwxWidgets_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=/wx-bin/bin/wx-config \ -DKICAD_SCRIPTING=OFF \ -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES=OFF \ -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=OFF \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../bin \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ ../../ make make install If the CMake configuration fails, determine the missing dependencies and install them on your system or disable the corresponding KiCad feature. If everything works you will get self-contained application bundles in the `build/bin` folder. Building KiCad with Python scripting is more complex and won't be covered in detail here. You will have to build wxPython against the wxWidgets source of the KiCad fork - a stock wxWidgets that might be bundled with the wxPython package won't work. Please see wxPython documentation or [macOS bundle build scripts][] (`compile_wx.sh`) on how to do this. Then, use a CMake configuration as follows to point it to your own wxWidgets/wxPython: cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang \ -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ \ -DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.9 \ -DwxWidgets_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=/wx-bin/bin/wx-config \ -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/python \ -DPYTHON_SITE_PACKAGE_PATH=/wx-bin/lib/python2.7/site-packages \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../bin \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ ../../ # Known Issues # {#known_issues} There are some known issues that effect all platforms. This section provides a list of the currently known issues when building KiCad on any platform. ## Boost C++ Library Issues ## {#boost_issue} As of version 5 of [GNU GCC][], using the default configuration of downloading, patching, and building of Boost 1.54 will cause the KiCad build to fail. Therefore a newer version of Boost must be used to build KiCad. If your system has Boost 1.56 or greater installed, you job is straight forward. If your system does not have Boost 1.56 or greater installed, you will have to download and [build Boost][] from source. If you are building Boost on windows using [MinGW][] you will have to apply the Boost patches in the KiCad source [patches folder][].
