Getting started

PACPUS is a framework provided as source code. So you have to compile it by yourself to use it.

Prerequisites

This tutorial was validated under a Linux Mint 17.x distribution.

First you will need some third party software, run this command in a terminal:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install subversion build-essential libboost-all-dev cmake qt5-default qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools qtcreator qtcreator-plugin-cmake libqt5webkit5-dev qt5-doc qt5-doc-html 

Compilation, installation of PACPUS framework

You need to have the write rights in /opt folder. If not you can create the pacpus folder manually and change the rights:

sudo mkdir /opt/pacpus
sudo chown $USER /opt/pacpus

Then we will get the code and compile it.

cd ~
mkdir dev && mkdir dev/pacpus
cd dev/pacpus
svn co https://devel.hds.utc.fr/svn/pacpusframework/tags/0.2.3 pacpusframework
cd pacpusframework/build
./build_linux.sh

First cmake will prompt you the result of the project building:

-- Configuring done
-- Generating done

Then the build process will start in release and debug modes. If succeeded the script will install the pacpus environment in /opt/pacpus

Testing

To finish we will check the working of the installation

sudo chown -R $USER /opt/pacpus
cd /opt/pacpus/0.2.3/bin
export PACPUS_ROOT=/opt/pacpus/0.2.3
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$PACPUS_ROOT/bin
./PacpusSensor

If working you will see the PacpusSensor window on the screen.

pacpussensor

Of course, as we don't provide a XML configuration file, we will get some errors in the terminal.

If you don't want to worry about the setting of the environment variables PACPUS_ROOT and LD_LIBRARY_PATH every day, you can write the following lines in your ~/.bashrc

export PACPUS_ROOT=/opt/pacpus/0.2.3
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$PACPUS_ROOT/bin

Let's go to the PacpusTutorials page to know how to develop quickly a new application.
