# Creating an installer
|
|
|
|
Currently, the installer creation has been tested on Windows only.
|
|
|
|
For creating the installer, [WixSharp](https://github.com/oleg-shilo/wixsharp) has to be present on your system.
|
|
|
|
1. Download the [latest WixSharp release](https://github.com/oleg-shilo/wixsharp/releases)
|
|
2. Extract into a folder
|
|
3. Add that folder to the PATH environment variable
|
|
|
|
When creating an installer, you _have to_ specify a build number using e.g. `-DBUILD_NUMBER=3` when invoking cmake. The build number is used to
|
|
differentiate multiple builds for the same Mumble version and makes sure that always the latest build will upgrade any previous builds. If you are
|
|
creating an installer for yourself, just use build number `0`.
|
|
|
|
The cmake option `packaging`, off by default, specifies whether or not to build the installer. If being built it will be multi-lingual by default.
|
|
|
|
Use the cmake generate option `-Dpackaging=ON` to enable building the installer.
|
|
|
|
Use the additional cmake generate option `-Dtranslations=OFF` to build a single-language installer instead.
|
|
|
|
Note that the installers expect some components to be built. For example, the client installer expects the `g15` component to be built too. Without it packaging will fail on the missing expected file.
