A simplified touch optimized interface for QGIS.

Perfect for field work on portable touch devices.

Use the dockerized QField SDK.

# get the latest tag from https://hub.docker.com/r/opengisch/qfield-sdk/tags/
TAG=20180821
cd QField

git submodule init
git submodule update

docker run -v $(pwd):/usr/src/qfield docker.io/opengisch/qfield-sdk:$TAG /usr/src/qfield/scripts/docker-build.sh --rm

This will put the apk into a subfolder build-docker/out/build/outputs/apk

Build OSGeo4A

cd QField

git submodule init
git submodule update

cp config.pri.default config.pri
# Edit config.pri

The advantage of this is, you will be able to build and deploy directly from QtCreator.

• Get QGIS 2.99 (3.0) development libraries.

cd QField
git submodule init
git submodule update

cp config.pri.default config.pri
# Edit config.pri

• open QField.pro with QtCreator (installed during OSGeo4A installation)
• hit build

Building on a Mac requires some adjustments:

1. In Qt Creator > Projects > Run >

• Check Use debug version of frameworks
• In Run Environment, add QGIS frameworks by editing following variables (Homebrew path might require adjustments):
  • DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH add :/usr/local/Cellar/qgis3/3.2/QGIS.app/Contents/Frameworks
  • DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH add :/usr/local/Cellar/qgis3/3.2/QGIS.app/Contents/Frameworks/qgis_core.framework/Versions/Current

2. If you get the error invalid version number in '-mmacosx-version-min=', you might need to modify some Qt file. In /usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.10.1/mkspecs/features/mac/default_post.prf, hardcode the minimum deployment target by setting version_min_flag = -m$${version_identifier}-version-min=10.10 Or by running gsed -i "s/version_min_flag = -m\$\${version_identifier}-version-min=\$\$deployment_target/version_min_flag = -m\$\${version_identifier}-version-min=10\.10/" /usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.11.1/mkspecs/features/mac/default_post.prf

3. If you have any issue with qmake not finding the proper SDK, in /usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.11.1/mkspecs/features/mac/default_post.prf, replace $$QMAKE_MAC_SDK_PATH (3 occurences) by /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk

4. Instead of step 1, you can add a custom deployment step in Qt Creator (project config -> run). Use the scripts at ./scripts/mac_deploy.sh and give "${QGIS_INSTALL_PATH}" as argument.
