It is written mostly in Python 3 and uses [qt](https://www.qt.io/) for the UI.\n\n## Current status\nStill looking for additional help especially with regards to:\n* OSX maintenance: reproducing bugs, packaging verification.\n* Linux maintenance: reproducing bugs, maintaining PPA repository, Debian package, rpm package.\n* Translations: updating missing strings, transifex project at https://www.transifex.com/voltaicideas/dupeguru-1\n* Documentation: keeping it up-to-date.\n\n## Contents of this folder\n\nThis folder contains the source for dupeGuru. Its documentation is in `help`, but is also\n[available online][documentation] in its built form. Here's how this source tree is organized:\n\n* core: Contains the core logic code for dupeGuru. It's Python code.\n* qt: UI code for the Qt toolkit. It's written in Python and uses PyQt.\n* images: Images used by the different UI codebases.\n* pkg: Skeleton files required to create different packages\n* help: Help document, written for Sphinx.\n* locale: .po files for localization.\n* hscommon: A collection of helpers used across HS applications.\n\n## How to build dupeGuru from source\n\n### Windows \u0026 macOS specific additional instructions\nFor windows instructions see the [Windows Instructions](Windows.md).\n\nFor macos instructions (qt version) see the [macOS Instructions](macos.md).\n\n### Prerequisites\n* [Python 3.7+][python]\n* PyQt5\n\n### System Setup\nWhen running in a linux based environment the following system packages or equivalents are needed to build:\n* python3-pyqt5\n* pyqt5-dev-tools (on some systems, see note)\n* python3-venv (only if using a virtual environment)\n* python3-dev\n* build-essential\n\nNote: On some linux systems pyrcc5 is not put on the path when installing python3-pyqt5, this will cause some issues with the resource files (and icons). These systems should have a respective pyqt5-dev-tools package, which should also be installed. The presence of pyrcc5 can be checked with `which pyrcc5`.  Debian based systems need the extra package, and Arch does not.\n\nTo create packages the following are also needed:\n* python3-setuptools\n* debhelper\n\n### Building with Make\ndupeGuru comes with a makefile that can be used to build and run:\n\n    $ make \u0026\u0026 make run\n\n### Building without Make\n\n    $ cd \u003cdupeGuru directory\u003e\n    $ python3 -m venv --system-site-packages ./env\n    $ source ./env/bin/activate\n    $ pip install -r requirements.txt\n    $ python build.py\n    $ python run.py\n\n### Generating Debian/Ubuntu package\nTo generate packages the extra requirements in requirements-extra.txt must be installed, the\nsteps are as follows:\n\n    $ cd \u003cdupeGuru directory\u003e\n    $ python3 -m venv --system-site-packages ./env\n    $ source ./env/bin/activate\n    $ pip install -r requirements.txt -r requirements-extra.txt\n    $ python build.py --clean\n    $ python package.py\n\nThis can be made a one-liner (once in the directory) as:\n\n    $ bash -c \"python3 -m venv --system-site-packages env \u0026\u0026 source env/bin/activate \u0026\u0026 pip install -r requirements.txt -r requirements-extra.txt \u0026\u0026 python build.py --clean \u0026\u0026 python package.py\"\n\n## Running tests\n\nThe complete test suite is run with [Tox 1.7+][tox]. If you have it installed system-wide, you\ndon't even need to set up a virtualenv. Just `cd` into the root project folder and run `tox`.\n\nIf you don't have Tox system-wide, install it in your virtualenv with `pip install tox` and then\nrun `tox`.\n\nYou can also run automated tests without Tox. Extra requirements for running tests are in\n`requirements-extra.txt`. So, you can do `pip install -r requirements-extra.txt` inside your\nvirtualenv and then `py.test core hscommon`\n\n[dupeguru]: https://dupeguru.voltaicideas.net/\n[cross-toolkit]: http://www.hardcoded.net/articles/cross-toolkit-software\n[documentation]: http://dupeguru.voltaicideas.net/help/en/\n[python]: http://www.python.org/\n[pyqt]: http://www.riverbankcomputing.com\n[tox]: https://tox.readthedocs.org/en/latest/\n","funding_links":["https://github.com/sponsors/arsenetar"],"categories":["Command Line Interface Utils"],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhsoft%2Fdupeguru","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fhsoft%2Fdupeguru","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhsoft%2Fdupeguru/lists"}
