# Making portable releases

Building is trivial, but bundling to deploy on other people's computers is harder (they don't have fluidsynth, nor its dependencies).

I've not automated this process.  
It relies on the "copy" build steps which ensure our frameworks are bundled into the targets (e.g. libfluidsynth gets copied into the Frameworks folder of the .app target).  
After that, I manually relink the .app to be portable. Here's how...

Assuming your `juicysfplugin` repository lives in `~/git/juicysfplugin`, then by default it will be compiled will a dynamic link to the fluidsynth which brew installed into `/usr/local/opt`:

```bash
otool -L /Users/birch/git/juicysfplugin/Builds/MacOSX/build/Release/juicysfplugin.app/Contents/MacOS/juicysfplugin 
/Users/birch/git/juicysfplugin/Builds/MacOSX/build/Release/juicysfplugin.app/Contents/MacOS/juicysfplugin:
	/usr/local/opt/fluid-synth/lib/libfluidsynth.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.7.1)
```

We can rewrite this dynamic link like so:

```bash
# the executable depends on fluidsynth 1
install_name_tool -change /usr/local/opt/fluid-synth/lib/libfluidsynth.1.dylib @executable_path/../Frameworks/libfluidsynth.1.7.1.dylib /Users/birch/git/juicysfplugin/Builds/MacOSX/build/Release/juicysfplugin.app/Contents/MacOS/juicysfplugin
# the appex Plugin depends on fluidsynth 1. might have this slightly wrong.
install_name_tool -change /usr/local/opt/fluid-synth/lib/libfluidsynth.1.dylib @executable_path/../Frameworks/libfluidsynth.1.7.1.dylib /Users/birch/git/juicysfplugin/Builds/MacOSX/build/Release/juicysfplugin.app/Contents/PlugIns/juicysfplugin.appex/Contents/MacOS/juicysfplugin

## dependencies

We'll need:

> glib and gthread, but also iconv and intl

https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/fluid-dev/2012-03/msg00033.html

I already added to XCode target "standalone plugin" a "copy files" build phase, which copies the following into Frameworks:

```
/usr/local/Cellar/glib/2.54.3/lib/libglib-2.0.0.dylib
/usr/local/opt/glib/lib/libgthread-2.0.0.dylib
/usr/local/opt/pcre/lib/libpcre.1.dylib
/usr/local/opt/gettext/lib/libintl.8.dylib
/usr/local/Cellar/fluid-synth/1.1.10/lib/libfluidsynth.1.7.1.dylib
```
