All platforms:
- rename scripts/ to tools/: Bazelisk expects to find its wrapper script
(used by the Mac changes below) in tools/. Rather than have a separate
scripts/ and tools/, it's simpler to just move everything into tools/.
- wheel outputs and binary bundles now go into .bazel/out/dist. While
not technically Bazel build products, doing it this way ensures they get
cleaned up when 'bazel clean' is run, and it keeps them out of the source
folder.
- update to the latest Bazel
Windows changes:
- bazel.bat has been removed, and tools\setup-env.bat has been added.
Other scripts like .\run.bat will automatically call it to set up the
environment.
- because Bazel is now on the path, you can 'bazel test ...' from any
folder, instead of having to do \anki\bazel.
- the bat files can handle being called from any working directory,
so things like running "\anki\tools\python" from c:\ will work.
- build installer as part of bundling process
Mac changes:
- `arch -arch x86_64 bazel ...` will now automatically use a different
build root, so that it is cheap to switch back and forth between archs
on a new Mac.
- tools/run-qt* will now automatically use Rosetta
- disable jemalloc in Mac x86 build for now, as it won't build under
Rosetta (perhaps due to its build scripts using $host_cpu instead of
$target_cpu)
- create app bundle as part of bundling process
Linux changes:
- remove arm64 orjson workaround in Linux bundle, as without a
readily-available, relatively distro-agonstic PyQt/Qt build
we can use, the arm64 Linux bundle is of very limited usefulness.
- update Docker files for release build
- include fcitx5 in both the qt5 and qt6 bundles
- create tarballs as part of the bundling process
Running and testing should be working on the three platforms, but
there's still a fair bit that needs to be done:
- Wheel building + testing in a venv still needs to be implemented.
- Python requirements still need to be compiled with piptool and pinned;
need to compile on all platforms then merge
- Cargo deps in cargo/ and rslib/ need to be cleaned up, and ideally
unified into one place
- Currently using rustls to work around openssl compilation issues
on Linux, but this will break corporate proxies with custom SSL
authorities; need to conditionally use openssl or use
https://github.com/seanmonstar/reqwest/pull/1058
- Makefiles and docs still need cleaning up
- It may make sense to reparent ts/* to the top level, as we don't
nest the other modules under a specific language.
- rspy and pylib must always be updated in lock-step, so merging
rspy into pylib as a private module would simplify things.
- Merging desktop-ftl and mobile-ftl into the core ftl would make
managing and updating translations easier.
- Obsolete scripts need removing.
- And probably more.
