Command Line Options
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
The CLI uses argparse to parse the command line options so the short or long versions may be used and the
|
|
long options may be truncated to the shortest unambiguous abbreviation.
|

|
|
|
|
List available versions of Qt, targets, extensions, modules, and architectures.
|
|
|
|
.. describe:: host
|
|
|
|
linux, windows or mac
|
|
|
|
.. describe:: target
|
|
|
|
desktop, winrt, ios or android.
|
|
When omitted, the command prints all the targets available for a host OS.
|
|
Note that winrt is only available on Windows, and ios is only available on Mac OS.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --help, -h
|
|
|
|
Display help text
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --extension <Extension>
|
|
|
|
Extension of packages to list
|
|
{wasm,src_doc_examples,preview,wasm_preview,x86_64,x86,armv7,arm64_v8a}
|
|
|
|
Use the ``--extensions`` flag to list all relevant options for a host/target.
|
|
Incompatible with the ``--extensions`` flag, but may be combined with any other flag.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --extensions (<Qt version> | latest)
|
|
|
|
Qt version in the format of "5.X.Y", or the keyword ``latest``.
|
|
When set, this prints all valid arguments for the ``--extension`` flag for
|
|
Qt 5.X.Y, or the latest version of Qt if ``latest`` is specified.
|
|
Incompatible with the ``--extension`` flag.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --spec <Specification>
|
|
|
|
Print versions of Qt within a `SimpleSpec`_ that specifies a range of versions.
|
|
You can specify partial versions, inequalities, etc.
|
|
``"*"`` would match all versions of Qt; ``">6.0.2,<6.2.0"`` would match all
|
|
versions of Qt between 6.0.2 and 6.2.0, etc.
|
|
For example, ``aqt list-qt windows desktop --spec "5.12"`` would print
|
|
all versions of Qt for Windows Desktop beginning with 5.12.
|
|
May be combined with any other flag to filter the output of that flag.
|
|
|
|
.. _SimpleSpec: https://python-semanticversion.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference.html#semantic_version.SimpleSpec
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --modules (<Qt version> | latest) <architecture>
|
|
|
|
This flag lists all the modules available for Qt 5.X.Y with a host/target/extension/architecture
|
|
combination, or the latest version of Qt if ``latest`` is specified.
|
|
You can list available architectures by using ``aqt list-qt`` with the
|
|
``--arch`` flag described below.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --arch (<Qt version> | latest)
|
|
|
|
Qt version in the format of "5.X.Y". When set, this prints all architectures
|
|
available for Qt 5.X.Y with a host/target/extension, or the latest version
|
|
of Qt if ``latest`` is specified.
|
|
|
|
.. _`list archives flag`:
|
|
.. option:: --archives (<Qt version> | latest) architecture [modules...]
|
|
|
|
This flag requires a list of at least two arguments: 'Qt version' and 'architecture'.
|
|
The 'Qt version' argument can be in the format "5.X.Y" or the "latest" keyword.
|
|
You can use the ``--arch`` flag to see a list of acceptable values for the 'architecture' argument.
|
|
Any following arguments must be the names of modules available for the preceding version and architecture.
|
|
You can use the ``--modules`` flag to see a list of acceptable values.
|
|
|
|
If you do not add a list of modules to this flag, this command will print a
|
|
list of all the archives that make up the base Qt installation.
|
|
|
|
If you add a list of modules to this flag, this command will print a list
|
|
of all the archives that make up the specified modules.
|
|
|
|
The purpose of this command is to show you what arguments you can pass to the
|
|
:ref:`archives flag <install archives flag>` when using the ``install-*`` commands.
|
|
This flag allows you to avoid installing parts of Qt that you do not need.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --latest-version
|
|
|
|
Print only the newest version available
|
|
May be combined with the ``--extension`` and/or ``--spec`` flags.

|
|
.. option:: --help, -h
|
|
|
|
Display help text
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --outputdir, -O <Output Directory>

|
|
|
|
.. option:: --external, -E <7zip command>
|
|
|
|
Specify external 7zip command path. By default, aqt uses py7zr_ for this task.
|
|
|
|
.. _py7zr: https://pypi.org/project/py7zr/
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --internal
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
.. option:: --keep, -k
|
|
|
|
Keep downloaded archive when specified, otherwise remove after install
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --modules, -m (<list of modules> | all)
|
|
|
|
Specify extra modules to install as a list.
|
|
Use the :ref:`List Qt Command` to list available modules.
|
|
|
|
This option is applicable to all the ``install-*`` commands except for ``install-tool``.
|
|
|
|
You can install multiple modules like this:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ aqt install-* <host> <target> <Qt version> -m qtcharts qtdatavis3d qtlottie qtnetworkauth \
|
|
qtpurchasing qtquicktimeline qtscript qtvirtualkeyboard qtwebglplugin
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you wish to install every module available, you may use the ``all`` keyword
|
|
instead of a list of modules, like this:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
aqt install-* <host> <target> <Qt version> <arch> -m all
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _install archives flag:
|
|
.. option:: --archives <list of archives>
|
|
|
|
[Advanced] Specify subset of archives to **limit** installed archives.
|
|
This is advanced option and not recommended to use for general usage.
|
|
Main purpose is speed up CI/CD process by limiting installed modules.
|
|
It can cause broken installation of Qt SDK.
|
|
|
|
This option is applicable to all the ``install-*`` commands except for ``install-tool``.
|
|
|
|
You can print a list of all acceptable values to use with this command by
|
|
using ``aqt list-qt`` with the :ref:`archives flag <list archives flag>`.

|
<host> <target> (<Qt version> | <spec>) [<arch>]
|
|
|
|
Install Qt library, with specified version and target.
|
|
There are various combinations to accept according to Qt version.
|
|
|
|
.. describe:: host
|
|
|
|
linux, windows or mac. The operating system on which the Qt development tools will run.
|
|
|
|
.. describe:: target

This is a Qt version such as 5.9.7, 5.12.1 etc.
|
|
Use the :ref:`List Qt Command` to list available versions.
|
|
|
|
.. describe:: spec
|
|
|
|
This is a `SimpleSpec`_ that specifies a range of versions.
|
|
If you type something in the ``<Qt version>`` positional argument that
|
|
cannot be interpreted as a version, it will be interpreted as a `SimpleSpec`_,
|
|
and ``aqt`` will select the highest available version within that `SimpleSpec`_.
|
|
|
|
For example, ``aqt install-qt mac desktop 5.12`` would install the newest
|
|
version of Qt 5.12 available, and ``aqt install-qt mac desktop "*"`` would
|
|
install the highest version of Qt available.
|
|
|
|
When using this option, ``aqt`` will print the version that it has installed
|
|
in the logs so that you can verify it easily.
|
|
|
|
.. describe:: arch
|
|
|
|
The compiler architecture for which you are developing. Options:

Use the :ref:`List Qt Command` to list available architectures.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --noarchives
|
|
|
|
[Advanced] Specify not to install all base packages.
|
|
This is advanced option and you should use it with ``--modules`` option.
|
|
This allow you to add modules to existent Qt installation.
