theshadowx/qt_nacl repository overview

⁠Qt NaCl

This repository is dedicated to compilation of Qt⁠ with Chrome Native Client (NaCl)⁠. You can either use Dockerfile to generate a Docker image or the script to compile the Qt in the host machine.

This repository is linked to the Docker Hub, thus you can pull directly the image from it --> https://hub.docker.com/r/theshadowx/qt_nacl/⁠

⁠From script

In your terminal:

$> chmod +x /path/to/QtNaCl.sh
$> /path/to/QtNaCl.sh

If everything goes well, the folder, from where you launched the script, will have these folders :

• nacl_sdk : Chrome Native Client SDK
• Qt5.6 : Qt 5.6 source files
• QtNaCl_56 : Compiled Qt with NaCl (containing qmake, nacldeployqt ...)

⁠Usage

To prevent problems, it's better to use the generated binaries' full path.

Generate Makefile :

$> /path/to/QtNaCl_56/qtbase/bin/qmake /path/to/pro_file

Compile :

$> make

Deploy :

$> /path/to/QtNaCl_56/qtbase/bin/nacldeployqt <target.bc> --run 

⁠From Dockerfile

To be able to use the Dockerfile, make sure you have Docker⁠ installed.

⁠Build the image

$> Docker build -t qt_nacl /path/to/Dockerfile

you 'll find your image by :

$> Docker images

⁠Usage

⁠Generate Makefile

docker run --rm -it -v /path/to/project:/path/to/project/in/container -w=/path/to/project/in/container qt_nacl:latest /opt/QtNaCl_56/qtbase/bin/qmake

⁠Compile

docker run --rm -it -v /path/to/project:/path/to/project/in/container -w=/path/to/project/in/container qt_nacl:latest make

⁠Deploy

docker run --rm -it -p 8000:8000 -v /path/to/project:/path/to/project/in/container -w=/path/to/project/in/container qt_nacl:latest /opt/QtNaCl_56/qtbase/bin/nacldeployqt <target.bc or target.nexe> --run

Open the Chrome browser and use the address : http://172.17.0.1:8000⁠

Normally you'll get your app shown in the browser (after some seconds to load everything)

⁠Alternative

Instead of building Dockerfile yourself, you can use the image from Docker Hub ⁠. To do so, you'll need just the pull the image

docker pull theshadowx/qt_nacl

Then just use it as it was mentioned in the previous section but this time instead of qt_nacl:latest it should be theshadowx/qt_nacl:latest

⁠N.B.

In order your app to work with Qt+NaCl, you should modify the main function. Here are some examples you can reference to : https://github.com/msorvig/qt-nacl-manualtests⁠
