Installation Guide to ORXONOX on Tardis
There are generally two ways to install ORXONOX (from source) onto the System
The first one is the default approach, and requires you to have a copy (and all svn-files) on your account.
The Second approach requires you to check out orxonox every time you switch your workstation again.
The Home-Account approach
- Download the source either from svn (https://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox/trunk) or (http://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox/trunk)
$ svn co https://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox/trunk orxonox/trunk
- Enter the newly checked out directory and configure it (this requires a special switch (—with-tardis), that automatically sets all environment flags for you at configure-time.
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --with-tardis
$ make
- now you are ready to work with the Source
The Tardis-Local approach
- Download this script: https://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox/trunk/scripts/tardis-scratch-checkout.pl. Probably you will have to change the Permissions of the file, so you can execute it
$ wget https://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox/trunk/scripts/tardis-scratch-checkout.pl
$ chmod 755 tardis-scratch-checkout.pl
- Then you will have to execute the script (to get the trunk):
$ ./tardis-scratch-checkout.pl
This will automatically check out the trunk to /scratch/{username}/orxonox/trunk.
If you'd like a branche you can use the script to do this too:
$ ./tardis-scratch-checkout.pl branches/myBranche
- Now you can work with your trunk/branche
Pro/Contra
| / | Home-Account | Tardis-Local
|
| Checkout | once per account | once per tardis and account
|
| Compiling | Network→slow | local→very much faster
|
| Linking | stinking slow (30 seconds+) | adequately fast
