### Build Requirements

- [setuptools](https://pypi.org/project/setuptools/) (>=65.0.0)
- [gettext](https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gettext/)

To build Gajim a PEP517 build frontend like pip (https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/) or build (https://pypa-build.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) must be used.

The build frontend takes care of installing all python build requirements. Beware `gettext` is not a python library and cannot be installed by the build frontend.

## Building

### Building the metadata files and translation

```bash
$ uv run ./make.py build -h

usage: make.py build [-h] [--dist {unix,flatpak,flatpak-nightly,win}]
```

Afterwards metadata files can be found in `dist/metadata` folder. 

### Building the wheel

#### Using `build`

```bash
python -m build -w
```

#### Using `uv`

```bash
uv build
```

## Installing

```bash
uv pip install dist/name_of_wheel.whl
```

### Installing the metadata files (Unix only)

```bash
$ uv run ./make.py install -h

usage: make.py install [-h] [--dist {unix,flatpak,flatpak-nightly}] [--prefix PREFIX]

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --dist {unix,flatpak,flatpak-nightly}
                        Distribution
  --prefix PREFIX       The path prefix for installation (e.g. "/usr")
```

## Tests

- `uv run pytest`
- `uv run pytest ./test/gtk/gui_file.py` (for testing GUI files)
