Compiling CCExtractor
You may compile CCExtractor across all major platforms using CMakeLists.txt
stored under ccextractor/src/
directory. Autoconf and custom build scripts are also available. See platform specific instructions in the below sections.
Downloads for precompiled binaries and source code can be found on our website.
Clone the latest repository from Github
git clone https://github.com/CCExtractor/ccextractor.git
Linux
- Make sure all the dependencies are met.
sudo apt-get install -y gcc
sudo apt-get install -y libcurl4-gnutls-dev
sudo apt-get install -y tesseract-ocr
sudo apt-get install -y tesseract-ocr-dev
sudo apt-get install -y libleptonica-dev
Note: On Ubuntu Version 14.04 (Trusty) and earlier, you should build leptonica and tesseract from source
- Compiling
Using the build script
#Navigate to linux directory and call the build script
cd ccextractor/linux
./build
# test your build
./ccextractor
Standard linux compilation through Autoconf scripts
sudo apt-get install autoconf #Dependency to generate configuration script
cd ccextractor/linux
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
# test your build
./ccextractor
Using CMake
#Create and navigate to directory where you want to store built files
cd ccextractor/
mkdir build
cd build
#Generate makefile using cmake and then compile
cmake ../src/
make
# test your build
./ccextractor
Compiling with GUI:
To build CCExtractor with a gui you will additionally need to install GLEW and GLFW
In order to compile it you'll need to configure it using autoconf by passing the -with-gui
option.
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-gui
make
Once set up you can run the GUI interface from the terminal ./ccextractorGUI
macOS
- Make sure all the dependencies are met. They can be installed via Homebrew as
brew install pkg-config
brew install autoconf automake libtool
brew install tesseract
brew install leptonica
To verify tesseract and leptonica are detected by pkg-config, e.g.
pkg-config --exists --print-errors tesseract
pkg-config --exists --print-errors lept
- Compiling
Using build.command script:
cd ccextractor/mac
./build.command OCR
# test your build
./ccextractor
If you don't want the OCR capabilities, then you don't need to configure the tesseract and leptonica packages, and build it with just
cd ccextractor/mac
./build.command
# test your build
./ccextractor
Using CMake
#Create and navigate to directory where you want to store built files
cd ccextractor/
mkdir build
cd build
#Generate makefile using cmake and then compile
cmake ../src/
make
# test your build
./ccextractor
Standard compilation through Autoconf scripts :
cd ccextractor/mac
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
# test your build
./ccextractor
Compiling with GUI:
To use CCExtractor with a gui you will additionally need to install GLEW and GLFW. You can do that by installing it via homebrew using:
brew install glfw
brew install glew
In order to compile it you'll need to configure it using autoconf by passing the -with-gui
option.
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-gui
make
Once set up you can run the GUI interface from the terminal ./ccextractorGUI
Windows
Open the windows/ccextractor.sln file with Visual Studio (2015 at least), and build it.
Configurations options are: (Debug|Release)-Full
Configurations options include dependent libraries which are used for OCR.
Using CMake
You may also generate .sln
files for Visual Studio and build using build tools, or open .sln
files using Visual Studio.
cmake ../src/ -G "Visual Studio 14 2015"
cmake --build . --config Release --ccextractor
