How to Build

Using Nix (Recommended)

Build Complete UI Plugin

# Build everything (default)
nix build

# Or explicitly
nix build '.#default'

The result will include:

• /lib/accounts_ui.dylib (or .so on Linux) - The Accounts UI plugin

Build Individual Components

# Build only the library (plugin)
nix build '.#lib'

# Build the standalone Qt application
nix build '.#app'

Development Shell

# Enter development shell with all dependencies
nix develop

Note: In zsh, you need to quote the target (e.g., '.#default') to prevent glob expansion.

If you don't have flakes enabled globally, add experimental flags:

nix build --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'

The compiled artifacts can be found at result/

Running the Standalone App

After building the app with nix build '.#app', you can run it:

# Run the standalone Qt application
./result/bin/logos-accounts-ui-app

The app will automatically load the required modules (capability_module, accounts_module, accounts_module) and the accounts_ui Qt plugin. All dependencies are bundled in the Nix store layout.

Nix Organization

The nix build system is organized into modular files in the /nix directory:

• nix/default.nix - Common configuration (dependencies, flags, metadata)
• nix/lib.nix - UI plugin compilation
• nix/app.nix - Standalone Qt application compilation

Output Structure

When built with Nix:

Library build (nix build '.#logos-accounts-ui-lib'):

result/
└── lib/
    └── accounts_ui.dylib    # Logos Accounts UI plugin

App build (nix build '.#app'):

result/
├── bin/
│   ├── logos-accounts-ui-app    # Standalone Qt application
│   ├── logos_host           # Logos host executable (for plugins)
│   └── logoscore            # Logos core executable
├── lib/
│   ├── liblogos_core.dylib  # Logos core library
│   └── liblogos_sdk.dylib   # Logos SDK library
├── modules/
│   ├── capability_module_plugin.dylib
│   └── accounts_module_plugin.dylib
└── accounts_ui.dylib            # Qt plugin (loaded by app)
