FangTian Installation and Deployment ​

This chapter describes how to install FangTian in openEuler.

Software and Hardware Requirements ​

Hardware Requirements ​

Currently, only the x86 and AArch64 architectures are supported.

Environment Setup ​

Install the openEuler OS. For details, see the openEuler Installation Guide.

Installing the FangTian Software Package ​

On the x86 platform:

sudo dnf install ft_multimedia ft_mmi ft_flutter ft_engine arkui-linux ft_utils
sudo dnf install ft_multimedia-devel ft_mmi-devel ft_flutter-devel ft_engine-devel

On the AArch64 platform:

sudo dnf install ft_multimedia ft_mmi ft_flutter ft_engine ft_utils
sudo dnf install ft_multimedia-devel ft_mmi-devel ft_flutter-devel ft_engine-devel

Starting FangTian ​

• Start the SAMGR system service.

  Assume that binder and ashmem have been installed.

  shell

  sudo /usr/share/sa/pre_oneshot_samgr

  Directly start SAMGR.

  shell

  mkdir -p ~/tmp
  sudo samgr > ~/tmp/samgr.log 2>&1 &

  Alternatively, set SAMGR as a service and start the service.

  shell

  sudo systemctl restart samgr

• Start the SA engine.

  shell

  sa_main /system/profile/ft/ft.xml > ~/tmp/ftsa.log 2>&1 &

  Description

  • SA stands for system ability. A process can have multiple SAs. The ft.xml file specifies multiple SAs for the ft process. For details about SAMGR and SAs, see the OpenHarmony documentation.
  • The SA configuration XML file, sa_main, and SAMGR are automatically deployed during software package installation.
