HatchKeeper is now avalible as an AppImage. If this doesnt work
for you, it is possible to extract HatchKeeper with ./*.AppImage
--appimage-extract, this will work as a portable app or you can
manually install it.
To use as a portable app just extract the AppImage and give
HatchKeeper execute permission. Make sure that .HatchKeeper_Data_*
has read and write permission.
Or Just copy HatchKeeper_* to /usr/bin and copy .HatchKeeper_Data_*
to you home folder. Make sure you have the right permissions.
run HatchKeeper_* to launch
NOTE: beginning with version 0.75.0 hatchkeeperd will no longer
be available, use the built-in notifications instead.

Compiling HatchKeeper
__________________________
Compiling HatchKeeper is not automated yet.
To compile HatchKeeper, you'll need a working install of
wxWidgets-3.1.1 <https://www.wxwidgets.org> develoment libs
and wxFreeChart, I use <https://www.github.com/iwbnwif/wxFreeChart>
Currently(2018).
You can manually specfiy __NO_GRAPH__ and edit out the wxFreeChart
library in the makefile to eliminate the wxFreeChart dependency.
On Windows:
I use the TDM-GCC-5.1.0 compiler see <http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net> for downloads.
You'll need to build a copy of wxWidgets 3.1.1. install source to C:\wxWidgets 3.1.1
Next open C:\wxWidgets-3.1.1\build\msw\config.gcc in a text editor and modify some
lines to look like this:
# Standard flags for C++
CXXFLAGS ?= "--std=gnu++11"
# What type of library to build? [0,1]
SHARED ?= 1
# Type of compiled binaries [,release]
BUILD ?= release
# Should debugging info be included in the executables? The default value
# "default" means that debug info will be included if BUILD=debug
# and not included if BUILD=release. [0,1,default]
DEBUG_INFO ?= 0
# Value of wxDEBUG_LEVEL. The default value is the same as 1 and means that all
# but expensive assert checks are enabled, use 0 to completely remove debugging
# code. [0,1,default]
DEBUG_FLAG ?= 1
# Version of C runtime library to use. You can change this to
# static if SHARED=0, but it is highly recommended to not do
# it if SHARED=1 unless you know what you are doing. [dynamic,static]
RUNTIME_LIBS ?= dynamic
Next cd to C:\wxWidgets-3.1.1\build\msw\ and run
mingw32-make -j2 -f makefile.gcc to build the libs
Copy the following files into the root of HatchKeeper source.
/lib/wxbase311u_gcc_custom.dll
/lib/wxmsw311u_adv_gcc_custom.dll
/lib/wxmsw311u_aui_gcc_custom.dll
/lib/wxmsw311u_core_gcc_custom.dll
/lib/wxmsw311u_html_gcc_custom.dll
To build the wxFreeChart cd into the source/build and run
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc WX_DIR=C:\wxWidgets-3.1.1 WX_UNICODE=1 WX_DEBUG=0 WX_SHARED=1
Copy the include folder, the /lib/wxcode*.a file and
the /lib/wxcode*.dll file to the root of the HatchKeeper
source.
Finally build HatchKeeper by cd into the directory.
run mingw32-make -j2 -f WinMakefile
NOTE. you might have to edit the WinMakefile.
On Linux.
Make sure you have g++/gcc, make, etc installed. If you
want to use native notifications, install libnotify
development files.
Build wxWidgets 3.1.1 first. cd into the wx source and run
./configure --disable-shared
make -j2
sudo make install
Next build wxFreeChart. cd into the source and run
./configure make sure the summary specifies wx 3.1.1
than run make
Copy the include folder and the /lib/libwxcode*.a file
to the root of the HatchKeeper source.
In HatchKeeper Rename LinMakefile to Makefile and run:
make -j2 , than: sudo make install to install, unless you
prefer to use it as a portable app.
On Mac.
Assuming you have the Command Line Tools For Xcode Installed.
You'll have to build and install wxWidgets 3.1.1, Open terminal
and cd into the wx directory. Run ./configure --disable-shared
then run make. After building is done, run sudo make install.
Next build wxFreeChart. cd into the source and run ./configure
make sure the summary specifies wx 3.1.1 than run make
Copy the include folder and the /lib/libwxcode*.a file to the
root of the HatchKeeper source.
Now extract HatchKeeper source and cd into it. Run make -f MacMakefile
The finished product will be called HatchKeeper.app. Copy this to
/Applications to install.
