Building Coriolis
=================
To build Coriolis, ensure the following prerequisites are met:
Ubuntu/Windows WSL2 Build Environment
=====================================
If you haven't already got them, install `build-essential` and `git`
.. code-block:: bash
sudo apt install build-essential git ccache
Clone the repo:
.. code-block:: bash
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/lip6/coriolis
cd coriolis
Install the build dependencies:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo apt install python3 python3-pip python3.10-venv \
doxygen pelican texlive-latex-recommended \
bison flex \
qtbase5-dev libqt5svg5-dev libqwt-qt5-dev libbz2-dev \
rapidjson-dev libboost-all-dev libeigen3-dev libxml2-dev
Mac OSX Build Environment
=========================
To build on Mac, first install _Homebrew: https://brew.sh. Be sure to follow all the instructions it gives after install so HOMEBREW_PREFIX gets set!
Clone the repo:
.. code-block:: bash
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/lip6/coriolis
cd coriolis
To install the prereqisites:
.. code-block:: bash
brew install ccache doxygen pelican qt@5 qwt-qt5 rapidjson boost eigen
brew install --cask mactex
We need to set some environment variables for finding the cask only components. We use dotenv to set these in the PDM venv (see below)
.. code-block:: bash
pip install dotenv
dotenv set CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH "$HOMEBREW_PREFIX/opt/qt@5/lib/cmake/"
dotenv set PKG_CONFIG_PATH "$HOMEBREW_PREFIX/opt/qt@5/lib/pkgconfig:$HOMEBREW_PREFIX/opt/qwt-qt5/lib/pkgconfig"
Building Coriolis
=================
To build Python wheels, you'll need the `build` package if you don't already have it installed:
.. code-block:: bash
pip3 install build
.. code-block:: bash
python3 -m build -w
The wheels can be found in dist and installed using pip:
.. code-block:: bash
pip3 install dist/*.whl
Development environment
=======================
For day-to-day development, its currently best to use meson and ninja directly. Currently there are `issues with using a Python editable install`_.
We use PDM_ to manage our development environment, which uses Python's venv_ system.
.. code-block:: bash
pip install pdm
Before starting, you'll likely want to install the `shell completion`_ and read about `using pdm with virtual environments`_. The basics are very simple, you just use pdm to run the build commands in an environment it automatially handles.
First we set up our pdm virtual environment:
.. code-block:: bash
pdm install --no-self -d --plugins
Below we are just using a local directory call builddir for our meson_ build directory, but you can put it wherever you like.
.. code-block:: bash
pdm run meson setup builddir
pdm run ninja -C builddir install
You can then use `pdm run` to run any programs or scripts dependant on Coriolis, for example:
.. code-block:: bash
pdm run unittests/python/test_hurricane.py
You can also install locally using:
.. code-block:: bash
pdm run meson setup builddir -Dpython.install_env=system
pdm run ninja -C builddir install
For more configuration and install options, see:
.. code-block:: bash
pdm run meson configure

Other operating systems
=======================
Coriolis is currently tested on CentOS 7 (via manylinux 2014), latest Ubuntu and on MacOSX.
We welcome patches for other operating systems, though please add appropriate CI!
You'll need the following prerequisites:
* A C++11 compliant compiler.
* Python 3.
* make or ninja.
* cmake.
* Python 3.9 or later
* Pip
* ninja.
* bzip2
* boost.
* boost
* bison & flex.
* Qt 5 & Qt 5 Svg.
* Qwt
* libxml2.
* RapidJSON, http://rapidjson.org/ .
* Eigen 3, http://eigen.tuxfamily.org .
* Lemon, http://lemon.cs.elte.hu/trac/lemon .
* doxygen
* pelican
* latex
The build system relies on a fixed directory tree from the root
of the user currently building it. Thus first step is to get a clone of
the repository in the right place. Proceed as follow:
.. code-block:: bash
$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/lip6/coriolis
$ cd coriolis
Then, to build Python wheels:
.. code-block:: bash
$ poetry build
The wheels can be found in dist and installed using pip:
.. code-block:: bash
$ pip install dist/*.whl
Building for Mac OSX
====================
To build on mac, first install _Homebrew: https://brew.sh
To install the prereqisites:
.. code-block:: bash
brew install doxygen qt@5 qwt-qt5 rapidjson boost eigen
brew install --cask mactex
.. code-block:: bash
CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH=/opt/homebrew/opt/qt@5/lib/cmake/
Using Coriolis
==============
Prior to using Coriolis, you need to setup your UNIX environment by running
the following command:
.. code-block:: bash
ego@home:~$ eval `~/coriolis-2.x/OS.DISTRIB/Release.Shared/install/etc/coriolis2/coriolisEnv.py`
Then you can launch the GUI:
.. code-block:: bash
ego@home:~$ cgt -V
