## About the project
Slashdiablo launcher is a cross platform game launcher for Diablo II and specifically the [Slashdiablo](https://old.reddit.com/r/slashdiablo/) community.

## Development
### Go
Install Go 1.12 or higher by following [install instructions](http://golang.org/doc/install.html) for your OS.
### Qt bindings for Go
Before you can build you need to install the [Go/Qt bindings](https://github.com/therecipe/qt/wiki/Installation#regular-installation).
### Install Qt5
#### OSX
On OSX using brew is by far the most simple way of installing Qt5.
```bash
$ brew install qt
```
#### Windows
Use the [installer](https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.13/5.13.0/qt-opensource-windows-x86-5.13.0.exe) provided by Qt (Make sure you install the MinGW build of Qt).
#### Building Slashdiablo launcher
```bash
# Get binding source
$ go get -u -v -tags=no_env github.com/therecipe/qt/cmd/...
# Download the repository with dependencies
$ go get -d -u -v github.com/nokka/slashdiablo-launcher
# Build the launcher
$ cd $(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/nokka/slashdiablo-launcher
$ qtdeploy build
# Start launcher (different depending on OS)
$ ./deploy/darwin/slashdiablo-launcher.app/Contents/MacOS/slashdiablo-launcher
```
## Deploying
Deploying to a target can be done from any host OS if there's a docker image available,
otherwise the target OS and the host must be the same.
### Windows
#### Build in docker
```bash
$ docker pull therecipe/qt:windows_64_static
$ qtdeploy -docker build windows_64_static
```
#### Build on local machine
```bash
$ qtdeploy build desktop
```
#### Updating application binary version and manifest data
```bash
# Download goversioninfo tool
$ go get github.com/josephspurrier/goversioninfo/cmd/goversioninfo
# Make your changes to the manifest file.
$ vim versioninfo.json
# Generate a new resource.syso including manifest.
$ go generate
```
