Sune Vuorela 720e08220d Allow dbus to be disabled
In certain usecases, especially for non-linux desktop builds, the
advantage of of dbus is often limited. Provide a way to disable
building with dbus.

Note that this also disables the related functionalities of having a
second okular launch open the document in the first okular.

This also disables the unit tests that tests those features.

The Okular repository contains the source code for:

  • the okular desktop application (the “shell”),
  • the okularpart KParts plugin,
  • the okularkirigami mobile application,
  • several okularGenerator_xyz plugins, which provide backends for different document types.

Contributing

Okular uses the merge request workflow. Merge requests are required to run pre-commit CI jobs; please dont push to the master branch directly. See https://community.kde.org/Infrastructure/GitLab for an introduction.

Build instructions

Okular can be built like many other applications developed by KDE. See https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development for an introduction.

If your build environment is set up correctly, you can also build Okular using CMake:

git clone https://invent.kde.org/graphics/okular.git
cd okular
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/your/install/dir ..
make
make install

Okular also builds tests in the build tree. To run them, you have to run make install first.

If you install Okular in a different path than your system install directory it is possible that you need to run

source prefix.sh

so that the correct Okular instance and libraries are picked up. Afterwards one can run okular inside the shell instance. The source command is also required to run the tests manually.

As stated above, Okular has various build targets. Two of them are executables. You can choose which executable to build by passing a flag to CMake:

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/your/install/dir -DOKULAR_UI=desktop ..

Available options are desktop, mobile, and both.

clang-format

The Okular project uses clang-format to enforce source code formatting. See README.clang_format for more information.
