[![Build & Package](https://github.com/saturneric/GpgFrontend/actions/workflows/release.yml/badge.svg?branch=main)](https://github.com/saturneric/GpgFrontend/actions/workflows/release.yml)
GpgFrontend is a Free, Open Source, Powerful, Easy-to-Use, Compact, Cross-Platform [OpenPGP](https://www.openpgp.org/)
Crypt Tool. Also, it's one of the excellent GUI Frontends for Modern [GnuPG](https://www.gnupg.org/) (gpg).
By using GpgFrontend, you can quickly encrypt and decrypt text or files. You can also digitally sign your text or files.
**GpgFrontend does not need to depend on any server, therefore it may be one of the last lines of defense in protecting
your privacy.** Please use this tool to transmit or store information that you regard as very precious. You can also use
it to guarantee the authenticity of your information.
[Languages Supported](#languages-support) by GpgFrontend that are widely used in most countries and regions around the
world, including English, Chinese, French, Russian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, etc.
**Notice:** GpgFrontend does not provide an embedded [gnupg](https://gnupg.org/) (gpg) binary and needs to be installed
by the user. **This is to ensure safety and avoid code or binary files involved in encryption and decryption being
implanted in the back-door during the delivery process.**
GpgFrontend is permanently free, and you can also "donate" it through the STAR project. Thanks!

## Usage
Here are some common usages to help you understand what GpgFrontend does and where it comes in handy. The interface
presented may not be exactly the same as the latest stable release.
### Text Encryption
Encryption can be done in just a few clicks.

## User Manual
GpgFrontend provides detailed documentation on his main features. If you want to know how to install with it, please
read the [User Manual](https://www.gpgfrontend.pub/#/quick-start) instead of README.
## Developer Document
You can view the developer documentation that is synchronized with the current latest release code. This document will
help you understand the source code and get involved more quickly in the process of contributing to open source.

## Build Source Code
For some capable users, building Gpg Frontend from source code is a good option. We encourage people to freely build,
package and distribute their own versions. The way we build in common systems is as follows:
Note: "$" Symbols indicate commands to be executed with a normal user. Before you start, please clone the latest stable
version code for users around the world.
```shell
$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/saturneric/GpgFrontend.git
```
如果你在中国大陆,可以使用这个仓库
```shell
$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://git.codesdream.com/GpgFrontend.git
```
### For Windows
Before building, you need to install MSYS2. After installation, open the MSYS2 terminal (MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit), enter the
MSYS2 directory, and execute the following commands:
```shell
pacman --noconfirm -S --needed mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc mingw-w64-x86_64-make mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake autoconf
pacman --noconfirm -S --needed make texinfo mingw-w64-x86_64-libconfig mingw-w64-x86_64-boost automake
pacman --noconfirm -S --needed mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5 libintl msys2-runtime-devel gettext-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-gpgme
pacman --noconfirm -S --needed mingw-w64-x86_64-ninja mingw-w64-x86_64-gnupg mingw-w64-x86_64-libarchive
```
After executing these commands, you will start compiling.
```shell
$ cd GpgFrontend
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Release" ..
$ ninja
```
After compiling, a release directory will be generated, which contains executable files that can be run directly.
```shell
$ ./release/GpgFrontend.exe
```
### For macOS
Install and compile dependencies.
```shell
$ brew install cmake git autoconf automake qt@5 texinfo gettext openssl@1.1 libarchive
$ brew install boost ninja
$ brew unlink gettext && brew link --force gettext
$ brew link qt@5
```
Build the code separately for debug.
```shell
$ cd GpgFrontend
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" -DOPENSSL_ROOT_DIR=/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1 ..
$ ninja
$ ./release/GpgFrontend # run the program
```
Build the code and make the App Bundle.
```shell
$ cd GpgFrontend
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Release" -DOPENSSL_ROOT_DIR=/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1 ..
$ ninja
$ macdeployqt ./release/GpgFrontend.app
```
### For Ubuntu 18.04 And Later
Install and compile dependencies.
```shell
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get -y install build-essential binutils git autoconf automake gettext texinfo
$ sudo apt-get -y install gcc-8 g++-8 ninja-build
$ sudo apt-get -y install libconfig++-dev libboost-all-dev libarchive-dev libssl-dev
$ sudo apt-get -y install gpg # If you need to run directly after building.
```
Compile and install libgpg-error/libassuan/gpgme. Notice: These in third_party directory is newer than those in apt.
```shell
# libgpg-error
$ cd GpgFrontend
$ cd ./third_party/libgpg-error
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode && make
$ sudo make install
# libassuan
$ cd GpgFrontend
$ cd ./third_party/libassuan
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode && make
$ sudo make install
# gpgme
$ cd GpgFrontend
$ cd ./third_party/gpgme
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-languages=cpp && make
$ sudo make install
```
Build the code and make the deb package(Please use Ubuntu 20.04 or later).
```shell
$ cd GpgFrontend
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Release" -DGPGFRONTEND_GENERATE_LINUX_INSTALL_SOFTWARE=ON ..
$ ninja
$ ninja package
```
Build the code separately for debug(Please use ubuntu 18.04 or later).
```shell
$ cd GpgFrontend
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" ..
$ ninja
$ ./release/GpgFrontend # run the program
```
Package the AppImage(Should use ubuntu 18.04).
```shell
$ cd GpgFrontend
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Release" ..
$ ninja
$ mkdir ./AppImageOut
$ cd ./AppImageOut
$ wget -c -nv https://github.com/probonopd/linuxdeployqt/releases/download/continuous/linuxdeployqt-continuous-x86_64.AppImage
$ chmod u+x linuxdeployqt-continuous-x86_64.AppImage
$ ./linuxdeployqt-continuous-x86_64.AppImage ../release/gpgfrontend/usr/share/applications/*.desktop -appimage
```
