how to install qt enterprise using command line only?

[Лагнер, Сергей]

Hello all.

I'm trying to use qt enterprise and I want to install it on my build
server. There is no any GUI on the server, so I need some way to install qt
without it. I downloaded qt-enterprise-linux-x64-android-5.6.1-1.run, but
it seems does not have such option.
I'd like to note, I do not want to build qt from sources, just install is
enough for me.
Is it possible to install it using command line only?

Thanks,
Sergey

Hi,

I have written a script for installing Qt OpenSource edition via command
line environment (xvfb is still needed). Although it do not fit with
enterprise edition (probably you need to login), it can be an example to
show how to manipulate Qt installer framework.

Hi.

Sorry for the delayed response. I have checked and your script works well.
Many thanks.

But it not exactly what I want. I surprised that nobody cares about it. Is
the server without GUI rare case, or all others build Qt from scratch?

Have you tried passing --platform minimal to the installer? I think this would then work without any X Server.

Have you considered specifying option with a single leading dash?

Looks like the installer eats the options that QGuiApplication needs. Try this
instead:

export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=minimal

I have tested this method on a VM without X. It works.

There's an "offscreen" one as well that works on Linux/MacOS/Widnows,
I use it for automated tests on a headless system.

I've been using the --script option to install on headless systems.

--script qt.install.js

--- qt.install.js ---

function Controller() {
installer.autoRejectMessageBoxes();
installer.installationFinished.connect(function() {
gui.clickButton(buttons.NextButton);
})
}
Controller.prototype.WelcomePageCallback = function() {
gui.clickButton(buttons.NextButton);
}
Controller.prototype.CredentialsPageCallback = function() {
gui.clickButton(buttons.NextButton);
}
Controller.prototype.IntroductionPageCallback = function() {
gui.clickButton(buttons.NextButton);
}
Controller.prototype.TargetDirectoryPageCallback = function() {

gui.currentPageWidget().TargetDirectoryLineEdit.setText(installer.value("HomeDir")
+ "/Qt");
gui.clickButton(buttons.NextButton);
}
Controller.prototype.ComponentSelectionPageCallback = function() {
gui.clickButton(buttons.NextButton);
}
Controller.prototype.LicenseAgreementPageCallback = function() {
gui.currentPageWidget().AcceptLicenseRadioButton.setChecked(true);
gui.clickButton(buttons.NextButton);
}
Controller.prototype.ReadyForInstallationPageCallback = function() {
gui.clickButton(buttons.NextButton);

Hello all.
I'm trying to use qt enterprise and I want to install it on my build server.
There is no any GUI on the server, so I need some way to install qt without
it. I downloaded qt-enterprise-linux-x64-android-5.6.1-1.run, but it seems
does not have such option.
I'd like to note, I do not want to build qt from sources, just install is
enough for me.
Is it possible to install it using command line only?

The way I install it on remote headless servers is:
- install on a local machine (same OS same CPU arch)
- rsync to remote server

It has the added advantage, that you can make sure all your build
servers are running the exact same thing

My 2 cents
