Script Usage

Assumptions

The guide will assume you are using docker, with example commands that are either one liners or from within the container.

Danger

Don’t run this directly on the host system unless you know what you are doing. It’s not recommended and the build will probably fail.

What to expect

⭐ When you are familiar with the script you can do most builds you want with a one liner. It’s pretty simple to use.

Execute the script

./qbittorrent-nox-static.sh

Note

Please see the switches and flags summary to see what options you can pass and how to use them

The first thing you should do is to run the script with the -h flag to see the help output and the script defaults.

./qbittorrent-nox-static.sh -h

By passing all as the first argument, you can build everything based on the default settings.

./qbittorrent-nox-static.sh all

For example, to use ICU using -i, optimise for the host system CPU using -o to set -march=native and -s to strip the binary and build using libtorrent v1.2.19

./qbittorrent-nox-static.sh all -i -o -s -lt v1.2.19

Same as previous command but using env settings

qbt_libtorrent_tag="v1.2.19" qbt_skip_icu="yes" qbt_optimise_strip="yes" qbt_optimize="yes" ./qbittorrent-nox-static.sh all

For an older version of qBittorrent, you can specify the version using -qt and the libtorrent version using -lt

./qbittorrent-nox-static.sh all -q -qt release-4.1.9.1 -lt libtorrent-1_1_14 -bt boost-1.76.0
