Qt 5.15 CI/CD pipeline

[Chris45]

Hello,

I have an open source Qt 5.15 desktop application that I want to compile for Windows, Linux and macOS.
I'm going to build a pipeline in Azure DevOps to automatically build and release.

I need to install Qt 5.15 silently in the pipeline VMs.
What is the recommended way to do this?

Hi and welcome to devnet,

AFAIK, the current way to do this is to use the aqtinstall project.

@SGaist Thanks for your answer, I will give it a try. I'm surprised there is no "official" way to do this. In my understanding it was possible to do it with the offline installer but there is no more offline installer for 5.15 as far as I can see.

You could use the online installer however it now requires a username and password (that you already have since you are posting here) that you might not want to put in your CI configuration.
