If you are using Docker, you can compile Hyperion inside a docker container. This keeps your system clean and with a simple script it's easy to use. Supported is also cross compiling for Raspberry Pi (Debian Stretch or higher). To compile Hyperion just execute one of the following commands.
The compiled binaries and packages will be available at the deploy folder next to the script.
Note: call the script with ./docker-compile.sh -h
for more options
Raspbian Stretch
wget -qN https://raw.github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/master/bin/scripts/docker-compile.sh && chmod +x *.sh && ./docker-compile.sh -t rpi-raspbian-stretch
Raspbian Buster
wget -qN https://raw.github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/master/bin/scripts/docker-compile.sh && chmod +x *.sh && ./docker-compile.sh -t rpi-raspbian-buster
X64:
wget -qN https://raw.github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/master/bin/scripts/docker-compile.sh && chmod +x *.sh && ./docker-compile.sh
i386:
wget -qN https://raw.github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/master/bin/scripts/docker-compile.sh && chmod +x *.sh && ./docker-compile.sh -t i386
Raspberry Pi v1 & ZERO
wget -qN https://raw.github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/master/bin/scripts/docker-compile.sh && chmod +x *.sh && ./docker-compile.sh -t armv6hf
Raspberry Pi 2 & 3
wget -qN https://raw.github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/master/bin/scripts/docker-compile.sh && chmod +x *.sh && ./docker-compile.sh -t armv7hf
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git cmake build-essential qtbase5-dev libqt5serialport5-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev python3-dev libxrender-dev libavahi-core-dev libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev libjpeg-dev libturbojpeg0-dev libqt5sql5-sqlite libssl-dev zlib1g-dev
on RPI you need the videocore IV headers
sudo apt-get install libraspberrypi-dev
OSMC on Raspberry Pi
sudo apt-get install rbp-userland-dev-osmc
ATTENTION Win10LinuxSubsystem we do not (/we can't) support using hyperion in linux subsystem of MS Windows 10, albeit some users tested it with success. Keep in mind to disable all linux specific led and grabber hardware via cmake. Because we use QT as framework in hyperion, serialport leds and network driven devices could work.
See AUR for PKGBUILDs on arch. If the PKGBUILD does not work ask questions there please.
To install on OS X you either need Homebrew or Macport but Homebrew is the recommended way to install the packages. To use Homebrew XCode is required as well, use brew doctor
to check your install.
First you need to install the dependencies:
brew install qt5
brew install python3
brew install cmake
brew install libusb
brew install doxygen
brew install zlib
We assume a 64bit Windows 7 or higher. Install the following
- Git (Check: Add to PATH)
- Python 3 (Windows x86-64 executable installer) (Check: Add to PATH and Debug Symbols)
- Open a console window and execute
pip install aqtinstall
. - Now we can download Qt to C:\Qt
mkdir c:\Qt && aqt install -O c:\Qt 5.15.0 windows desktop win64_msvc2019_64
- Open a console window and execute
- CMake (Windows win64-x64 Installer) (Check: Add to PATH)
- Visual Studio 2019 Build Tools (direct link)
- Select C++ Buildtools
- On the right, just select
MSVC v142 VS 2019 C++ x64/x86-Buildtools
and latestWindows 10 SDK
. Everything else is not needed.
complete automated process for Mac/Linux:
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng/master/bin/compile.sh | sh
some more detailed way: (or more or less the content of the script above) be sure you fulfill the prerequisites above.
git clone --recursive https://github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng.git hyperion
cd hyperion
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make -j $(nproc)
if this get stucked and dmseg says out of memory try:
make -j 2
# optional: install into your system
sudo make install/strip
# to uninstall (not very well tested, please keep that in mind)
sudo make uninstall
# ... or run it from compile directory
bin/hyperiond
# webui is located on localhost:8090 or 8091
Creates hyperion directory and checkout the code from github
export HYPERION_DIR="hyperion"
git clone --recursive --depth 1 https://github.com/hyperion-project/hyperion.ng.git "$HYPERION_DIR"
Change into hyperion folder and create a build folder
cd "$HYPERION_DIR"
mkdir build
cd build
To generate make files with automatic platform detection and default settings:
This should fit to RPI, x86, amlogic/wetek
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
Developers on x86 linux should use:
cmake -DPLATFORM=x11-dev -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
To use framebuffer instead of dispmanx (for example on the cubox-i):
cmake -DENABLE_FB=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
To generate make files on OS X:
Platform should be auto detected and refer to osx, you can also force osx:
cmake -DPLATFORM=osx -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
To generate files on Windows (Release+Debug capable):
Platform should be auto detected and refer to windows, you can also force windows:
# You might need to setup MSVC env first
call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\BuildTools\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat"
cmake -DPLATFORM=windows -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" ..
The -j $(nproc)
specifies the amount of CPU cores to use.
make -j $(nproc)
On a mac you can use sysctl -n hw.ncpu
to get the number of available CPU cores to use.
make -j $(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
On Windows run
cmake --build . --config Release -- -maxcpucount
Maintainer: To build installer, install NSIS and set env VCINSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\BuildTools\VC"
Copy all necessary files to /usr/local/share/hyperion
sudo make install/strip
If you want to install into another location call this before installing
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/pi/apps ..
This will install to /home/pi/apps/share/hyperion
