|
||||
===Notes===
|
||||
|
||||
The Windows package is installed by just unpacking it anywhere.
|
||||
%It finds the libraries relative to the ``.exe`` file.
|
||||
You will probably need to set the ``PATH`` and ``GF_LIB_PATH`` environment
|
||||
variables, see Inari's notes on
|
||||
[Installing GF on Windows http://www.grammaticalframework.org/~inari/gf-windows.html#toc3].
|
||||
|
||||
%The new experimental MINGW package is for use in the
|
||||
%[MINGW http://www.mingw.org] environment in Windows. Unpack it in the MSYS shell
|
||||
%(which is started with ``C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat``).
|
||||
%It should work out of the box without any additional settings.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``.deb`` packages should work on Ubuntu 14.04, 1604 and 17.04 and similar
|
||||
Linux distributions.
|
||||
|
||||
The packages for macOS (Mac OS X) should work on at
|
||||
least 10.9, 10.10, 10.11 and 10.12 (Mavericks, Yosemite, El Capitan and Sierra).
|
||||
|
||||
(*) **Note** that for compatibility with OS X 10.11 and newer,
|
||||
``gf-3.9.pkg`` will install the ``gf`` executable in ``/usr/local/bin``
|
||||
instead of ``/usr/bin``, so make sure ``/usr/local/bin`` is in your ``$PATH``.
|
||||
Also, if you still have an older version of GF installed in ``/usr/bin``,
|
||||
remove it and/or make sure ``/usr/local/bin`` comes before ``/usr/bin``
|
||||
in your ``$PATH`` so you don't accidentally run the old version.
|
||||
|
||||
The Mac OS and Linux ``.tar.gz`` packages are designed to be installed in
|
||||
``/usr/local``.
|
||||
You can install them in other locations, but then you need to set the
|
||||
``GF_LIB_PATH`` environment variable:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
export GF_LIB_PATH=/usr/local/share/gf-3.9/lib
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
where ``/usr/local`` should be replaced with the path to the location where you
|
||||
unpacked the package.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
==Installing the latest release from source==
|
||||
|
||||
[GF is on Hackage http://hackage.haskell.org/package/gf], so under normal
|
||||
circumstances the prodedure is fairly simple:
|
||||
|
||||
+ Install a recent version of the
|
||||
[Haskell Platform http://hackage.haskell.org/platform],
|
||||
e.g. version 7.10.3 (see note 2 below)
|
||||
+ ``cabal update``
|
||||
+ On Linux: install some C libraries from your Linux distribution
|
||||
(see note 1 below)
|
||||
+ ``cabal install gf``
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
You can also download the full source package from here:
|
||||
[``gf-3.9.tar.gz`` gf-3.9.tar.gz].
|
||||
|
||||
=== Notes ===
|
||||
|
||||
The above steps installs GF for a single user.
|
||||
% and does not require root privileges.
|
||||
The executables are put in ``$HOME/.cabal/bin``
|
||||
(or, with recent versions of the Haskell platform on Mac OS X,
|
||||
in ``$HOME/Library/Haskell/bin``), so it is a good
|
||||
idea to put a line in your ``.bash_profile`` or ``.profile``
|
||||
to add that directory to you path:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
PATH=$HOME/.cabal/bin:$PATH
|
||||
```
|
||||
or
|
||||
```
|
||||
PATH=$HOME/Library/Haskell/bin:$PATH
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note 1**.
|
||||
GF uses [``haskeline`` http://hackage.haskell.org/package/haskeline], which
|
||||
on Linux depends on some non-Haskell libraries that
|
||||
won't be installed automatically by cabal, and therefore need to be installed
|
||||
manually. Here is one way to do this:
|
||||
|
||||
- On Ubuntu: ``sudo apt-get install libghc-haskeline-dev``
|
||||
- On Fedora: ``sudo yum install ghc-haskeline-devel``
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
**Note 2**.
|
||||
The GF source code has been updated to compile with GHC 8.0.x. Using older
|
||||
versions of GHC (7.10.3, 7.10.2, 7.8, 7.6) should work too.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Known problems ===
|
||||
|
||||
There seems to be a bug in some versions of Cabal that can cause
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Distribution/Simple/PackageIndex.hs:124:8-13: Assertion failed
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
if the same version of GF is
|
||||
already installed. If you encounter this, you can use ``ghc-pkg unregister gf``
|
||||
to remove the installed version of GF and ``ghc-pkg list gf`` to verify that
|
||||
it is gone.
|
||||
|
||||
==Installing from the latest developer source code==
|
||||
|
||||
The first time:
|
||||
%, assuming you already have the Haskell Platform and darcs
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
darcs get --lazy http://www.grammaticalframework.org/ GF
|
||||
cd GF
|
||||
cabal install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Subsequently:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd GF
|
||||
darcs pull -a
|
||||
cabal install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can get the code from the
|
||||
[GF GitHub https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/GF/] mirror, which is
|
||||
updated nightly.
|
||||
|
||||
The above notes for installing from source apply also in these cases.
|
||||

||||
