NOTE:

• onlyoffice-core has 7 third parties :

  • boost
  • cef (useless in onlyoffice-core)
  • cryptopp (embedded in onlyoffice-core source)
  • curl (embedded in onlyoffice-core source)
  • icu
  • pole (embedded in onlyoffice-core source)
  • v8

• v8 has 6 third parties which are automatically downloaded by fetch and gclient - google commands provided by [depot_tools]. I did not check what are the requirements for them. Here's the list of third parties :

  • binutils
  • icu
  • instrumented_libraries
  • jinja2
  • llvm-build
  • markupsafe

• Requirements :

  • v8__compile__ (in the current state) needs 3GB to compile
  • qt5-qmake__compile__ needs 4GB to compile
  • qt4-qmake__compile__ needs 1.5GB to compile
  • onlyoffice-core__compile__ (including v8 and boost) needs 5GB to compile

• How to install onlyoffice-core on Debian ? (tested on Debian 8. See tutorial.) Here are commands to run on a fresh Debian distribution :

    # These dependencies are requirement for entire DocumentServer
    #   nodejs and npm are not necessary for core
    sudo apt-get install --force-yes -yq \
      wget build-essential \
      libcurl4-gnutls-dev libglib2.0-dev libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev \
      libgtkglext1-dev libatk1.0-dev libcairo2-dev libxml2-dev \
      libxss-dev libgconf2-dev \
      default-jre \
      qt5-qmake qt5-default \
      p7zip-full git subversion
    # Download DocumentServer and sub modules (including core)
    git clone --recursive https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/DocumentServer.git
    # Build third parties
    cd DocumentServer/core/Common/3dParty && ./make.sh
    # Build core
    cd ../.. && make
    # Binaries are generated here :
    ls -l build/lib/*/
    ls -l build/bin/*/
    ls -l build/AllFontsGen/

DONE:

• add & use [qt5-qmake] - used to build onlyoffice
• add [qt4-qmake] - alternative used because qt5-qmake is not compilable everywhere
• add & use [icu4c-55.1] - version 55.1 used by onlyoffice third party
• add & use [cryptopp] instead of embedded source - version 5.6.3 used by onlyoffice third party
• almost use [boost-lib] - version 1.58.0 used by onlyoffice third party
• use [curl] instead of embedded source
• add [pole]
• add [depot_tools]
• add [v8] - version 4.10.253 used by onlyoffice third party
• add & use [onlyoffice-core] - revision 0bd10c2 used by latest OnlyOffice Document Server release
• add & use [onlyoffice-boost-lib-1.58.0] - a modified version of [boost-lib] section - compile with [gcc] and use [icu4c-55.1]
• remove [onlyoffice-x2t]

TODO:

• make [qt5-qmake] to compile on all systems
  • it compiles on my first runner thanks to up to date system libraries
  • it does NOT compile on my second runner (VM based on debian8) - matching system libraries do not exist - matching slapos libraries do not exist either
    • I know it misses <xcb/xcb_iccm.h>, it's not provided by [libxcb]
• make [onlyoffice-core] to compile on all systems
  • it compiles on my first runner with [qt5-qmake] (as originaly required by onlyoffice documentation)
  • it does NOT compile on my second runner with [qt4-qmake] due to an "internal compiler error - please report bug to gnu.org"
• make generic [boost-lib] to use the --with-icu=${icu:location} option ?
  • currently using [onlyoffice-boost-lib-1.58.0] with --with-icu=${icu4c-55.1:location} to make -lboost_regex to work
• make [v8] to be fully standalone & use it in [onlyoffice-core]
  • integrate v8 third parties in slapos too ?
