Additional games can be easily added to the library (See: Installing Additional Games).
## Install from Source
You can install Replay by compiling from source. Here's the list of
dependencies required:
- `libgranite (>= 6.2.0)`
- `libgtk-3-dev (>= 3.24.20)`
- `libgee-0.8-dev (>= 3.24.20)`
- `libhandy-1-dev (>= 1.2.0)`
- `retro-gtk-1 (>= 1.0.2)`
- `meson`
- `valac (>= 0.28.0)`
## Building and Running
### Flatpak
Flatpak is the preferred method of building Replay to ensure that built-in cores and core info are included:
```bash
$ flatpak-builder build com.github.avojak.replay.yml --user --install --force-clean
$ flatpak run --env=G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all com.github.avojak.replay
```
### Updating Translations
When new translatable strings are added, ensure that `po/POTFILES` contains a
reference to the file with the translatable string.
Update the `.pot` file which contains the translatable strings:
```
$ ninja -C build com.github.avojak.replay-pot
```
Generate translations for the languages listed in the `po/LINGUAS` files:
```
$ ninja -C build com.github.avojak.replay-update-po
```
