Install Go 1.12 or higher by following install instructions for your OS.
Before you can build you need to install the Go/Qt bindings.
On OSX using brew is by far the most simple way of installing Qt5.
$ brew install qt
Use the installer provided by Qt (Make sure you install the MinGW build of Qt).
# Get binding source
$ go get -u -v -tags=no_env github.com/therecipe/qt/cmd/...
# Download the repository with dependencies
$ go get -d -u -v github.com/nokka/slashdiablo-launcher
# Build the launcher
$ cd $(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/nokka/slashdiablo-launcher
$ qtdeploy build
# Start launcher (different depending on OS)
$ ./deploy/darwin/slashdiablo-launcher.app/Contents/MacOS/slashdiablo-launcher
Deploying to a target can be done from any host OS if there's a docker image available, otherwise the target OS and the host must be the same.
$ docker pull therecipe/qt:windows_64_static
$ qtdeploy -docker build windows_64_static
$ qtdeploy build desktop
# Download goversioninfo tool
$ go get github.com/josephspurrier/goversioninfo/cmd/goversioninfo
