A cross compile script for qBittorent-nox static.

qbittorrent-nox-static-cross-compile

You can download Enhanced-Edition from here: qBittorrent-Enhanced-Edition/releases

There is a bash script for cross-compile qbittorrent-nox static for armv7l and aarch64 on Alpine 3.12, based on musl-cross-make and qbittorrent-nox-static :

• Update the system and install the core build dependencies - Requires root privileges if dependencies are not present.
• Install and build the qbittorrent-nox specific dependencies locally with no special privileges required.
• Build a fully static and portable qbittorrent-nox binary which automatically uses the latest version of all supported dependencies.

Here is an example build profile:

qBittorrent 4.3.3 was built with the following libraries:

Qt: 5.15.2
Libtorrent: 1.2.12.0
Boost: 1.75.0
OpenSSL: 1.1.1i
zlib: 1.2.11

Typically the script is intended to be deployed on a docker or VPS but long as your system meets the core dependency requirements tested for by the script, the script can be run as a local user.

See here for binaries I have built and how to install them - Downloads

Alpine Linux platform

musl - This script creates a fully static qbittorrent-nox binary using musl.

The final result will show this when using file

file ./aarch64-qbittorrent-nox-4.3.1

Gives this result:

./aarch64-qbittorrent-nox-4.3.1: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, ARM aarch64, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, stripped

Script information

Fully static builds were built and tested on:

Alpine Linux 3.12 amd64

Script usage

Follow these instructions to install and use this build tool.

Use these commands via ssh on your Linux platform.

For Alpine specifically, you need to install bash to use this script.

apk add bash

Use musl-cross-make build your aarch64/arm toolchain:

（aarch64 for Phicomm-N1 and arm for Asus RT-AC68U etc...）

Edit config.mak, use TARGET=aarch64-linux-musl then make install

Edit config.mak, use TARGET=arm-linux-musleabi then make install

Then execute the script use this command:

~/cb-qb-static-aarch64.sh 4.3.1 reset

Here 4.3.1 is qBittorrent version, reset for first time compile or re-compile all modules. After a full compile, if you just want compile a new version of qBittorrent next time, use:

~/cb-qb-static-aarch64.sh new-version-number

Supported modules

zlib (default)
openssl (default)
boost (default)
qtbase (default)
qttools (default)
libtorrent (default)
qbittorrent (default)

Configuration

If you want to configure qBittorrent before you start it you this method

Create the default configuration directory.

mkdir -p ~/.config/qBittorrent

Create the configuration file.

touch ~/.config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf

Edit the file

nano ~/.config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf

Add this. Make sure to change your web ui port.

musl static

arm64:

mkdir -p ~/bin && source ~/.profile
wget -qO ~/bin/qbittorrent-nox https://github.com/rampageX/qbittorrent-nox-static-cross-compile/releases/download/4.3.1/aarch64-qbittorrent-nox
chmod 700 ~/bin/qbittorrent-nox

Now you just run it and enjoy!

~/bin/qbittorrent-nox

Default login:

username: admin
password: adminadmin

Some key start-up arguments to help you along. Using the command above with no arguments will loads the defaults or the settings define in the ~/.config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf

Options:
    -v | --version             Display program version and exit
    -h | --help                Display this help message and exit
    --webui-port=<port>        Change the Web UI port
    -d | --daemon              Run in daemon-mode (background)
    --profile=<dir>            Store configuration files in <dir>
    --configuration=<name>     Store configuration files in directories
                               qBittorrent_<name>

Second instance

When you simply call the binary it will look for it's configuration in ~/.config/qbittorrent.

If you would like to run a second instance using another configuration you can do so like this

~/bin/qbittorrent-nox --configuration=NAME

This will create a new configuration directory using this suffix.

~/.config/qbittorrent_NAME

And you can now configure this instance separately.

Nginx proxypass

location /qbittorrent/ {
	proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080/;
	proxy_http_version      1.1;
	proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-Host        $http_host;
	http2_push_preload on; # Enable http2 push

	# The following directives effectively nullify Cross-site request forgery (CSRF)
	# protection mechanism in qBittorrent, only use them when you encountered connection problems.
	# You should consider disable "Enable Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) protection"
	# setting in qBittorrent instead of using these directives to tamper the headers.
	# The setting is located under "Options -> WebUI tab" in qBittorrent since v4.1.2.
	#proxy_hide_header       Referer;
	#proxy_hide_header       Origin;
	#proxy_set_header        Referer                 '';
	#proxy_set_header        Origin                  '';

	# Not needed since qBittorrent v4.1.0
	#add_header              X-Frame-Options         "SAMEORIGIN";
}

Systemd service

Location for the systemd service file:

/etc/systemd/system/qbittorrent.service

Modify the path to the binary and your local username.

[Unit]

Description=qbittorrent-nox
Wants=network-online.target
After=network-online.target nss-lookup.target

[Service]

User=username
Group=username

Type=exec
WorkingDirectory=/home/username

ExecStart=/home/username/bin/qbittorrent-nox
KillMode=control-group
Restart=always
RestartSec=5
TimeoutStopSec=infinity

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

After any changes to the services reload using this command.

systemctl daemon-reload

Now you can enable the service

systemctl enable --now qbittorrent.service

Now you can use these commands

systemctl stop qbittorrent
systemctl start qbittorrent
systemctl restart qbittorrent

Systemd local user service

You can also use a local systemd service.

~/.config/systemd/user/qbittorrent.service

You can use this configuration with no modification required.

[Unit]
Description=qbittorrent
After=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=%h/bin/qbittorrent-nox

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

After any changes to the services reload using this command.

systemctl --user daemon-reload

Now you can enable the service

systemctl --user enable --now qbittorrent.service

Now you can use these commands

systemctl --user stop qbittorrent
systemctl --user start qbittorrent
systemctl --user restart qbittorrent

qb-nox-static-cc's Issues

能发再编译个新版本

找了一大圈,只有你这个arm静态编译的版本可以正常打开webUI,其他的虽然可以用客户端连接,但是一打开webUI就会bus error自动退出,所以能不能再帮忙编译个新的版本呢
