SoOSiM Installation Guide

Print
Last Updated on Tuesday, 18 June 2013

In this guide we will install SoOSiM in a 64-bit Ubuntu 13.04, but the guide should work for any other Unix-like OS (just adapting the commands to the running OS).

Command line version

First we need to install the ghc, cabal-install and git.

apt-get install ghc cabal-install git

 

Second we retreive the code from the repository:

git clone git://github.com/christiaanb/SoOSiM.git
git clone git://github.com/christiaanb/SoOSiM-components.git
git clone git://github.com/christiaanb/SoOSiM-cli.git

 

Third we compile and install the code:

cd SoOSiM; cabal install; cd ..
cd SoOSiM-components; cabal install; cd ..
cd SoOSiM-cli; cabal install; cd ..

 

The executable will be installed in $HOME/.cabal/bin, so it can be executed by:

$HOME/.cabal/bin/SoOSiM-cli

 

You can add the executable to your $PATH (or copy it to another directory in the $PATH) to execute it easier.

 

GUI version

This guide installs SoOSim GUI version and installs the executable in /opt/soosim directory:

Install dependencies:

apt-get install ghc cabal-install libz-dev git libftgl-dev libglade2-dev
            alex happy libgtkglext1-dev

 

Set-up the environment:

export HOME=/root
export PATH=/root/.cabal/bin:/opt/soosim/cabal-dev/bin:$PATH
cabal update
cabal install cabal-dev

 

Create the installation directory and retrieve the source code:

mkdir /opt/soosim
cd /opt/soosim
wget https://raw.github.com/ivanperez-keera/SoOSiM-ui/master/install-with-deps.sh
chmod a+x install-with-deps.sh
 

Finally, compile the code:

./install-with-deps.sh
