Installing GenI

Command line interface and server

(tested on Linux, Windows, and MacOS X)

  1. Install the Haskell Platform. GenI 0.24 is known to build with either haskell-platform-2013.2.0.0 and haskell-platform-2012.2.0.0. Other versions may work too.

    If you want the graphical interface, and you are on a 64-bit Mac,

    take the 64-bit version of the Haskell Platform.

  2. Install the basic version first. If you just want the last stable release of GenI,

        cabal install GenI geniserver

However, if you want to install the unstable version

    from source, change to the directory this README is in and

        cabal install . ./geniserver

Graphical interface

  1. Install wxWidgets. If you have a 64-bit Mac, install the Cocoa interface. If you use HomeBrew on Mac, brew install wxmac should do the trick.

    GenI 0.24 has been known to work with wxWidgets 2.9.4 on MacOS X, and

    is expected to work on wxWidgets 2.8.x or wxWidgets 2.9.x on Linux.

  2. Install wxHaskell (potentially painful)

        cabal install wx

If you run into trouble here, you may need to use a development

    version of wxHaskell.

  3. Install the graphical interface (should be easy if 2 went well)

        cabal install ./geni-gui

  4. Try GenI (needs GenI examples files from this repository)

        cd examples/ej
    geni-gui -t trees -l lexicon -s suite

Development

I accept Darcs patches and GitHub pull requests. The Darcs repository might be a bit ahead of the Git one, but I'll try to keep the mirror up to date.

Style

Please follow published style guide. There is quite a bit of old code that does not follow this. Sorry. I'm slowly working on transitioning it.

Versions

  • Stable version has even minor number (eg. 0.22.x)
  • Development version has odd minor number (eg 0.23.yyyymmdd) Sometimes with a datestamp for major API changes in between
  • NEWS file will probably mention the next release (eg. 0.24)
