# Linux
A simple map application and test suite for Linux based on [Mapbox GL Native](../../README.md) and [GLFW](https://github.com/glfw/glfw).
We are using Ubuntu for development. While the software should work on other distributions as well, we are not providing explicit build instructions here.
This process gives you a Linux desktop app built on a Linux host system.
### Build
Install GCC 5+ if you are running Ubuntu 14.04 or older. Alternatively, you can also use [Clang 3.5+](http://llvm.org/apt/).
sudo add-apt-repository --yes ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gcc-5 g++-5
export CXX=g++-5
Ensure you have git and other build essentials:
sudo apt-get install curl git build-essential zlib1g-dev automake \
libtool xutils-dev make cmake pkg-config python-pip \
libcurl4-openssl-dev libpng-dev libsqlite3-dev \
libllvm3.4
Ensure you have cmake 3.x:
sudo add-apt-repository --yes ppa:george-edison55/cmake-3.x
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cmake cmake-data
Install glfw3 dependencies:
sudo apt-get install libxi-dev libglu1-mesa-dev x11proto-randr-dev \
x11proto-xext-dev libxrandr-dev \
x11proto-xf86vidmode-dev libxxf86vm-dev \
libxcursor-dev libxinerama-dev
Set the environment variable `MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN` to your [Mapbox access token](ACCESS_TOKEN.md):
export MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN=MYTOKEN
Optionally, you can specify a custom style to the test application:
export MAPBOX_STYLE_URL=MYSTYLEURL
Then, you can then proceed to build the test application:
make glfw-app
Set an access token as described below, and then run:
make run-glfw-app
### Test
- `make test-*` Builds and runs all tests. You can specify individual tests by replacing * with their name (e.g. `make test-Sprite.CustomSpriteImages`).
The `zsh` will treat the * in this command as a glob, so you'll need to run
`make "test-*"` instead.
### Usage
Keyboard shortcuts for testing functionality are logged to the console when the test app is started.
