Installation
============
Prerequisite
-------------------
#. The :ref:`TRIQS <triqslibs:welcome>` toolbox (see :ref:`TRIQS installation instruction <triqslibs:installation>`).
In the following, we will suppose that it is installed in the ``path_to_triqs`` directory.
Installation steps
------------------
#. Download the sources from github::
$ git clone https://github.com/triqs/app4triqs.git app4triqs.src
#. Create an empty build directory where you will compile the code::
$ mkdir app4triqs.build && cd app4triqs.build
#. Make sure that you have added the TRIQS and Cpp2Py installation to your environment variables::
$ source path_to_triqs/share/cpp2pyvarsh.sh
$ source path_to_triqs/share/triqsvarsh.sh
#. In the build directory call cmake::
$ cmake ../app4triqs.src
#. Compile the code, run the tests and install the application::
$ make
$ make test
$ make install
Version compatibility
---------------------
Be careful that the version of the TRIQS library and of the solver must be
compatible (more information on the :ref:`TRIQS website <triqslibs:versions>`).
As app4triqs is still in alpha phase (unstable), it can only be compiled against the
unstable branch of triqs.
Custom CMake options
--------------------
Functionality of ``app4triqs`` can be tweaked using extra compile-time options passed to CMake::
cmake -DOPTION1=value1 -DOPTION2=value2 ... ../app4triqs.src
