Getting started in Linux
To acquire the Urho3D source code you are advised to use a program called Git. Also building Urho3D requires certain packages. Run the following command in a terminal to install these. Add or remove package names as you see fit.
- On Debian-based platforms:
sudo apt-get install libx11-dev libxrandr-dev libasound2-dev git cmake make libgl1-mesa-dev - Additionally, on Mint and Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install build-essential - On RedHat:
sudo yum install libX11-devel libXrandr-devel alsa-lib-devel git cmake make
Now you can clone Urho by navigating to the path you would like the Urho3D folder to be in and run:
git clone https://github.com/urho3d/Urho3D
To build Urho3D type and run cd Urho3D then cmake . which should start a process ending with a line saying
-- Build files have been written to: ...
If this is not the case, read the error messages, they may give you the required information to fix your problem.
If all went well type make, hit enter and Urho3D should start compiling.
For more extensive information on the building process see the documentation.
After Urho3D has been compiled you can run its samples - which should now be located in Urho3D/bin/ - and use it as a library. The library file is created in the Urho3D/lib/ folder.
Note: If you execute the cmake . or your IDE execute the cmake operation(like CLion), then it tips you some err(like failed to initialise SDL subsystem), you should install some deps (like libasound2-dev libpulse-dev), the important is : After you installed these libs, delete the cmake generated folder then reconfigure and regenerate.
Depending on your IDE of choice you can now use one of the community-provided wizards below to create your first Urho3D project or continue reading on the wiki about how to create your first project.
