# ChaQt
Qt application using chatapi[^1] \
(it will be after I learn)
---
## Requirements
- Java **21** (JDK)
- Qt **6.7.2**
## Usage
In both cases, replace `/home/user/Qt/6.7.2/gcc_64/lib` with your Qt installation[^4]
- Just run:
```shell
./mvnw compile exec:java -Djava.library.path=/home/user/Qt/6.7.2/gcc_64/lib
```
- Package[^5] and run:
```shell
./mvnw package
java -Djava.library.path=/home/user/Qt/6.7.2/gcc_64/lib -jar target/chaqt-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
```
### Downloading Qt
- For 64-bit Linux:
1. [qt672.tar.zst](https://lfs724.b-cdn.net/qt672.tar.zst)[^2]
2. Extract
3. Note the **absolute**[^3] path to `6.7.2/gcc_64/lib`
- For other systems, or if you want to DIY:
1. Download the [Qt **Online** Installer](https://www.qt.io/download-qt-installer-oss) and execute
2. You will be asked to create a Qt account - you have to (that's why I provide a download)
3. Click through until you see the installation options. \
Take note of the `Installation folder` and choose `Custom Installation`
4. `Select` -> `Deselect All` \
Then select `Qt` -> `Qt 6.7.2` -> `Desktop`
5. Click through until you finish
6. Note the **absolute**[^3] path to `6.7.2/gcc_64/lib` in your installation folder
### Notes[^6]
[^1]: considering renaming
[^2]: Signature is on this repo: `qt672.tar.zst.sig` \
The link leads to https://lfs724.b-cdn.net/qt672.tar.zst
[^3]: Absolute is like `/home/user/Qt/6.7.2/gcc_64/lib`
[^4]: You can use an environment variable `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` instead of `-Djava.library.path`. Make it the same value
[^5]: Saves the artifact as `chaqt-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar` in the `target` directory. \
You can move it away and delete this repo
[^6]: I love footnotes
