Bunch of general information

To do.

Build solver

Currently in order to build the solver on a fresh opam switch I needed the following packages (anecdotal data from Arch x64, assuming you have opam):

opam update                 # Seriously, do that one
opam switch 4.06.1+flambda  # caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/flambda.html
eval `opam config env`      # *sight*
opam install ppx_jane core re2 yojson vg cairo2 camlimages menhir ocaml-protoc

Now try to run make in the root folder, it should build several ocaml binaries.

Build rust compressor

Get Rust (e.g. curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh according to https://www.rust-lang.org/)

Now running make in the rust_compressor folder should install the right packages and build the binary.

Installing submodules

Run:

git submodule update --recursive --init

from within the main project directory. You might need a recent version of git; 2.7.4 worked.

Miscellaneous python dependencies

This should install all of the Python packages that you need. Not all of these are needed for any particular domain, but all of these are required by at least one domain.

pip install dill
pip install sexpdata
pip install Box2D-kengz
pip install pygame
pip install pycairo
pip install cairocffi
pip install psutil
conda install protobuf
pip install pypng

PyPy

If for some reason you want to run something in pypy, install it from:

https://github.com/squeaky-pl/portable-pypy#portable-pypy-distribution-for-linux

Be sure to add pypy3 to the path. Really though you should try to use the rust compressor and the ocaml solver. You will have to (annoyingly) install parallel libraries on the pypy side even if you have them installed on the Python side:

pypy3 -m ensurepip
pypy3 -m pip install --user vmprof
pypy3 -m pip install --user dill
