[HowTo] Compile TrinityCore on Mac OS X using Homebrew

 Share

Recommended Posts

 

This tutorial aims to simplify the compilation of TrinityCore on Mac OS X by using Homebrew, the missing package manager for OS X, to install TrinityCore dependencies, in order to keep things simple.

 

1) Install Homebrew

For those who don't have Homebrew installed, you can easily install it typing:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

 

2) Install Xcode and Command Line Tools

Install XCode using the App Store, then type:

xcodeselect --install

 

3) Install dependencies

brew update
brew install mysql openssl readline cmake boost zlib
brew link zlib --force

 

4) Getting sources

Move to the folder where you want to place the TrinityCore sources, then type:

git clone https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore.git
cd TrinityCore

 

If ( and ONLY if ) you want to compile 3.3.5 type:

git checkout 3.3.5

 

Create build folder:

mkdir build
cd build

 

 

5) Generate the XCode project files

IMPORTANT: replace /Users/username/tc-server of the following command with the path where you want to install the TrinityCore server.

then type:

cmake ../ -GXcode \
-DMYSQL_ADD_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/local/include \
-DMYSQL_LIBRARY=/usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient_r.dylib \
-DREADLINE_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/opt/readline/include \
-DREADLINE_LIBRARY=/usr/local/opt/readline/lib/libreadline.dylib \
-DBOOST_INCLUDEDIR=/usr/local/include \
-DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR=/usr/local/lib \
-DOPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/opt/openssl/include \
-DOPENSSL_SSL_LIBRARIES=/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libssl.dylib \
-DOPENSSL_CRYPTO_LIBRARIES=/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.dylib \
-DZMQ_LIBRARY=/usr/local/opt/zeromq/lib/libzmq.dylib \
-DZMQ_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/opt/zeromq/include \
-DZLIB_ROOT=/usr/local/Cellar/zlib/1.2.8 \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/Users/username/tc-server \
-DWITH_WARNINGS=1

 

6) Building the binaries

Type the following to build the binaries:

xcodebuild -target install -config Release

 

 

I have tested this tutorial both for branch 3.3.5 and 6.x using a MacBook Pro Retina 15" running:

- a fresh Mac OS X 10.9.5 (Mavericks)

- a fresh Mac OS X 10.10.3 (Yosemite)

Mac OS X 10.11.3 (El Capitan)

and it worked fine, give me your feedback.

Hmm I got a problem, I don't know where it comes from. Maybe my fault, but I've done everything like you.

It's the same, it's just a symbolic link to avoid the version number in the path. But just in case I'll do like you.

 

EDIT: In fact I used -DSCRIPTS=0 and it's a success :/ Something wrong in the scripts maybe.

 

But I think this way is the most simple for OS X

You're right, I edited my first post using these symbolic links.

 

I used -DSCRIPTS=0 and it's a success :/ Something wrong in the scripts maybe.

 

Then probabily you have some custom script which is causing the issue, for me it's working without -DSCRIPTS=0 (just tested on a clean latest TC).

Can anyone give me hand with this?   I've tried with both the homebrew and following the guide and I can't get by this error:

 

Cmake Error at CMakelists.txt:12

No CMAKE_C_COMPLIER could be found.

 

Then it tells me to look into CMakeError.log and this is what it says:

** BUILD FAILED **


The following build commands failed:

I'm doing this on 10.7 Lion with xcode 4.6.3 and command line tools 4.6.2.

Thanks so much!

Before compiling i see this:

* Build map/vmap tools   : No  (default)

How can i change this?

 

Also i want to compile just 3.3.5

So i've checked out that branch with this command 

git checkout 3.3.5

Then i've compiled this this:

xcodebuild -target install -config 3.3.5
Is it right? Thanks!
 
 

PS: BRAVOOO

@ikir

Ciao!

In order to enable map/vmap tools, just add the option:

Per abilitare l'opzione map/vmap tools, aggiungi semplicemente l'opzione:

-DTOOLS=1

 

The correct xcodebuild command is:

Il comando xcodebuild corretto è:

xcodebuild -target install -config Debug

Or:

Oppure:

xcodebuild -target install -config Release

So you can choose to compile in Debug or Release mode

Così puoi scegliere se compilare in modalità Debug o Release.

@Shin Thanks so much! Grazie mille!

 

But i got this error during compiling:

Ahhh it seems my libmysqlclient_r.dylib is in another dir /usr/local/lib/

 

Now everything is working!

I get the following error while compiling on El Capitan:

/Users/*******/TrinityCore/src/server/game/Server/Packets/BattlePetPackets.cpp:84:18: fatal error: 
      use of overloaded operator '<<' is ambiguous (with operand types
      'WorldPacket' and 'size_type' (aka 'unsigned long'))
    _worldPacket << Pets.size();

 

UPDATE:

Since zlib wasn't in the El Captain's default homebrew repo, I had to brew tap homebrew/dupes, in order to add it, and then install it - after that, the build went fine.

Doesn't seem to work anymore with OS X El Capitan.  I get the following message when doing the compilation: 

Detected version of Boost is too old.  Requested version was 1.49 (or

  newer).

I tried installing boost using home-brew as above, and I am not sure how to get the newest version of boost to install correctly.  Any ideas?

I have read the answer of Shin to this post, but I don' really understand it. You said:

xcodebuild -target install -config Release

So it is not possible to just build 3.3.5? Which one is built if I use this 'general' command?

 

I had a problem building it the first time, because mysql was in another path. I used -DMYSQL_LIBRARY=/usr/local/lib/libmysqlclient.20.dylib \ and the build succeeded. Was it the correct file? I mean it obviously succeeded, but there was another mysql file in the folder 'libmysqlclient.dylib' which might have been also ok; I just picked the 20 first and wanted to try the other if it fails again...
