Build Instructions

[mpovel]

Hello,
I am not that used to swift application, maybe you could add a paragraph how to build the application ?
I installed swift 6.0.3 and added it to my PATH and I can execute swift. So I executed the ./Building/Scripts/build-ubuntu-static in the root of BlinkTool checkout and failed with:
SPMBuildScripts/GenerateBundleVersionDotSwift: line 14: SPMBuildScripts/../GHAScripts/BundleVersionFromGit: No such file or directory

So I guess, I did something wrong ;-(

Thanks

Michael

I am running on a Raspberry 5 latest raspbian, unpacked swift-6.0.3-RELEASE-debian12-aarch64.tar.gz
I made some progress and used the script:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
git clone [email protected]:grigorye/BlinkTool.git
cd BlinkTool/Submodules; git clone [email protected]:grigorye/ReusableWorkflows.git;cd ..
PATH=$PATH:~/blink/swift-6.0.3-RELEASE-debian12-aarch64/usr/bin;Building/Scripts/build-ubuntu-static

But it failed while linking
error: link command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
/usr/bin/ld.gold: error: cannot find -lCFURLSessionInterface

The linker failure was fixed by removing the line
-Xlinker -lCFURLSessionInterface
from the
Building/Scripts/build-ubuntu-static

Good, I'll take a look - I didn't build it for Linux for quite some time. I recall doing some tweaks for Swift 5 - probably they're no longer necessary with Swift 6.
