How to compile on Linux

You need the following packages

For Debian and Ubuntu try
sudo apt install ninja meson gegl
sudo apt install ninja meson gegl04

For Fedora
sudo dnf install ninja meson gegl04

If you have these packages just run

./build_plugin_linux which will compile the plugin and all its dependencies and put it in a folder called "Linux binaries"

or build_linux.sh which will compile the individual dependency plugin but it will remain inside the build folder.

For Windows

Everything above compiling on Linux is relevant accept you first install MySys2 then shell into the MySys2 environment then

pacman install ninja meson gegl

After that hitting "build_plugin_windows" will generate binaries for the plugin in a "WindowsBinaries" Folder.

The raw command to compile GEGL Plugins

meson setup --buildtype=release build && ninja -C build
