PhantomJS 2

Jump to bottom
Ariya Hidayat edited this page Jul 28, 2014 · 33 revisions

The next version, PhantomJS 2, is still in the development. It will be based on Qt 5.

As of May 2014 it is based on webkit 538.1 (7 months old).

Source code

The original repository doesn't contain a branch for PhantomJS 2 yet. We have two main repositories: KDAB and Vitallium's. We're in the process of merge these two repositories into one.

The main goal before we will create a branch for 2 version is make PhantomJS build on all supported platforms: Linux, OS X and Windows. Those repositories can be found at:

Downloading the source

$ git clone https:/Vitallium/phantomjs-qt5.git
$ cd phantomjs
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update

Building

Linux

First, install the following packages: sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev g++ ruby gperf bison flex libfontconfig1 libfontconfig1-dev libicu48 libicu-dev ttf-mscorefonts-installer fontconfig libfreetype6.

On Debian-based distro, just run:

$ sudo apt-get install sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev g++ ruby gperf bison flex libfontconfig1 libfontconfig1-dev libicu48 libicu-dev ttf-mscorefonts-installer fontconfig libfreetype6

On Fedora-based distro (tested on CentOS 6), just run:

$ sudo yum -y install gcc gcc-c++ make flex bison gperf ruby openssl-devel freetype-devel fontconfig-devel libicu-devel sqlite-devel

Then, launch the build:

chmod +x build.sh
./build.sh --confirm --jobs 10

NOTE: Using sh, instead of bash explicitly, has been reported to fail on some systems.

Mac OS X

First, install the following packages: fontconfig icu4c.

If you use Homebrew, just run:

$ brew install fontconfig icu4c
$ brew link fontconfig icu4c

Then, launch the build:

chmod +x build.sh
./build.sh --confirm --jobs 10 --qt-config "-I /usr/local/include/ -L /usr/local/lib/"

FreeBSD

You will need to edit build.sh:

  • Add OSTYPE=freebsd
  • Change the two make -j$COMPILE_JOBS lines near the end to call gmake instead of make
  • Follow the Linux instructions above

Windows

NOTE: MSVC2012 is the toolchain currently supported.

After you get the source code, clone this repository to src\qt\3rdparty. This will download all 3rd party libraries, headers, which are needed to build PhantomJS 2 on Windows.

NOTE: Repository contains libraries for MSVC2012. If you need other versions, please let me know (Vitallium) by creating an issue in repository.

NOTE: You must have Perl, Python, and Ruby on PATH.

Use Visual Studio Command Prompt, go to src\qt\qtbase, and run configure.bat. This might fail, but you should get src\qt\qtbase\bin\qmake.exe.

Now you are ready to build. Use Visual Studio Command Prompt and run

build.cmd

from top directory. The results will go into bin.
