# Build scrcpy
|
|
|
|
Here are the instructions to build _scrcpy_ (client and server).
|
|
|
|
You may want to build only the client: the server binary, which will be pushed
|
|
to the Android device, does not depend on your system and architecture. In that
|
|
case, use the [prebuilt server] (so you will not need Java or the Android SDK).
|
|
|
|
[prebuilt server]: #prebuilt-server
|
|
|
|
## Branches
|
|
|
|
### `master`
|
|
|
|
The `master` branch concerns the latest release, and is the home page of the
|
|
project on Github.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `dev`
|
|
|
|
`dev` is the current development branch. Every commit present in `dev` will be
|
|
in the next release.
|
|
|
|
If you want to contribute code, please base your commits on the latest `dev`
|
|
branch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
You need [adb]. It is available in the [Android SDK platform
|
|
tools][platform-tools], or packaged in your distribution (`adb`).
|
|
|
|
On Windows, download the [platform-tools][platform-tools-windows] and extract
|
|
the following files to a directory accessible from your `PATH`:
|
|
- `adb.exe`
|
|
- `AdbWinApi.dll`
|
|
- `AdbWinUsbApi.dll`
|
|
|
|
The client requires [FFmpeg] and [LibSDL2]. Just follow the instructions.
|
|
|

|
|
[platform-tools]: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html
|
|
[platform-tools-windows]: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
|
|
[ffmpeg]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FFmpeg
|
|
[LibSDL2]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_DirectMedia_Layer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## System-specific steps
|
|
|
|
### Linux
|
|
|
|
Install the required packages from your package manager.
|
|
|
|
#### Debian/Ubuntu
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# runtime dependencies
|
|
sudo apt install ffmpeg libsdl2-2.0-0 adb
|
|
|
|
# client build dependencies
|
|
sudo apt install gcc git pkg-config meson ninja-build \
|
|
libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev \
|
|
libsdl2-dev
|
|
|
|
# server build dependencies
|
|
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On old versions (like Ubuntu 16.04), `meson` is too old. In that case, install
|
|
it from `pip3`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt install python3-pip
|
|
pip3 install meson
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Fedora
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# enable RPM fusion free
|
|
sudo dnf install https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
|
|
|
|
# client build dependencies
|
|
sudo dnf install SDL2-devel ffms2-devel meson gcc make
|
|
|
|
# server build dependencies
|
|
sudo dnf install java-devel
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Windows
|
|
|
|
#### Cross-compile from Linux
|
|
|
|
This is the preferred method (and the way the release is built).
|
|
|
|
From _Debian_, install _mingw_:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt install mingw-w64 mingw-w64-tools
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You also need the JDK to build the server:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then generate the releases:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make -f Makefile.CrossWindows
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It will generate win32 and win64 releases into `dist/`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### In MSYS2
|
|
|
|
From Windows, you need [MSYS2] to build the project. From an MSYS2 terminal,
|
|
install the required packages:
|
|
|
|
[MSYS2]: http://www.msys2.org/
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# runtime dependencies
|
|
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-SDL2 \
|
|
mingw-w64-x86_64-ffmpeg
|
|
|
|
# client build dependencies
|
|
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-make \
|
|
mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc \
|
|
mingw-w64-x86_64-pkg-config \
|
|
mingw-w64-x86_64-meson
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For a 32 bits version, replace `x86_64` by `i686`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# runtime dependencies
|
|
pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-SDL2 \
|
|
mingw-w64-i686-ffmpeg
|
|
|
|
# client build dependencies
|
|
pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-make \
|
|
mingw-w64-i686-gcc \
|
|
mingw-w64-i686-pkg-config \
|
|
mingw-w64-i686-meson
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Java (>= 7) is not available in MSYS2, so if you plan to build the server,
|
|
install it manually and make it available from the `PATH`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export PATH="$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Mac OS
|
|
|
|
Install the packages with [Homebrew]:
|
|
|
|
[Homebrew]: https://brew.sh/
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# runtime dependencies
|
|
brew install sdl2 ffmpeg
|
|
|
|
# client build dependencies
|
|
brew install pkg-config meson
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Additionally, if you want to build the server, install Java 8 from Caskroom, and
|
|
make it avaliable from the `PATH`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
brew tap homebrew/cask-versions
|
|
brew cask install adoptopenjdk/openjdk/adoptopenjdk8
|
|
export JAVA_HOME="$(/usr/libexec/java_home --version 1.8)"
|
|
export PATH="$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Docker
|
|
|
|
See [pierlon/scrcpy-docker](https://github.com/pierlon/scrcpy-docker).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Common steps
|
|
|
|
If you want to build the server, install the [Android SDK] (_Android Studio_),
|
|
and set `ANDROID_SDK_ROOT` to its directory. For example:
|
|
|
|
[Android SDK]: https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Linux
|
|
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=~/Android/Sdk
|
|
# Mac
|
|
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=~/Library/Android/sdk
|
|
# Windows
|
|
set ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=%LOCALAPPDATA%\Android\sdk
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you don't want to build the server, use the [prebuilt server].
|
|
|
|
Clone the project:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
|
|
cd scrcpy
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, build:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
meson x --buildtype release --strip -Db_lto=true
|
|
ninja -Cx
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_Note: `ninja` [must][ninja-user] be run as a non-root user (only `ninja
|
|
install` must be run as root)._
|
|
|
|
[ninja-user]: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/commit/4c49b27e9f6be02b8e63b508b60535426bd0291a
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Run
|
|
|
|
To run without installing:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./run x [options]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Install
|
|
|
|
After a successful build, you can install _scrcpy_ on the system:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo ninja -Cx install # without sudo on Windows
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This installs two files:
|
|
|
|
- `/usr/local/bin/scrcpy`
|
|
- `/usr/local/share/scrcpy/scrcpy-server`
|
|
|
|
Just remove them to "uninstall" the application.
|
|
|
|
You can then [run](README.md#run) _scrcpy_.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Prebuilt server
|
|
|
|
- [`scrcpy-server-v1.15`][direct-scrcpy-server]
|
|
_(SHA-256: e160c46784f30566eae621cad88bfb34e124f945cb8274b8dfc615b613b86dd8)_
|
|
|
|
[direct-scrcpy-server]: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/releases/download/v1.15/scrcpy-server-v1.15
|
|
|
|
Download the prebuilt server somewhere, and specify its path during the Meson
|
|
configuration:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
meson x --buildtype release --strip -Db_lto=true \
|
|
-Dprebuilt_server=/path/to/scrcpy-server
|
|
ninja -Cx
|
|
sudo ninja -Cx install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The server only works with a matching client version (this server works with the
|
|
`master` branch).
