A GUI for pcb2gcode.

!!!!If you see a feature missing, either switch to use the command-line pcb2gcode or consider contributing code to this GUI.

Build

Build on Debian Jessie or newer, Ubuntu Trusty or newer

sudo apt-get install build-essential git qt5-default libqt5svg5-dev
git clone https://github.com/pcb2gcode/pcb2gcodeGUI.git
cd pcb2gcodeGUI/
qmake
make
sudo make install

Now follow the installations in the pcb2gcode's README and install pcb2gcode. Now you can run pcb2gcodeGUI with

pcb2gcodeGUI

You can also specify a different installation path with

qmake PREFIX=<prefix path>

pcb2gcodeGUI will be installed in PREFIX/bin

Build on Debian Wheezy

You need wheezy-backports: add this line to /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-backports main

and do an apt-update

sudo apt-get update

then follow the instructions for Debian Jessie

Build on Windows

Note that pre-built binaries for Windows are available in the release page.

To build pcb2gcodeGUI on Windows download the Qt SDK and install it, then open pcb2gcodeGUI.pro inside Qt creator, select "Release" and build it.

You can also build pcb2gcodeGUI statically with MSYS2:

• Download MSYS2
• Install the required build packages (follow the instructions for pcb2gcode)
• pacman --needed -S mingw-w64-i686-qt5-static mingw-w64-i686-libwebp mingw-w64-i686-dbus (or pacman --needed -S mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5-static mingw-w64-x86_64-libwebp mingw-w64-x86_64-dbus if you want a 64-bit binary)
• git clone https://github.com/pcb2gcode/pcb2gcodeGUI.git
• cd pcb2gcodeGUI/
• /mingw32/qt5-static/bin/qmake.exe (or /mingw64/qt5-static/bin/qmake.exe for the 64-bit binary)
• make

Then copy pcb2gcodeGUI.exe and a pcb2gcode binary (download it from the release page or build it) in the same folder.
