Andromeda is implemented in OCaml and relies on the OPAM package manager for installation. Please make sure you have a recent working OCaml & OPAM.
Execute the following command to get and install Andromeda:
opam pin add andromeda git+https://github.com/Andromedans/andromeda
How to compile Andromeda
If you would like to compile Andromeda yourself, follow these instructions.
Prerequisites
You need OCaml 4.12 or later, and quite possibly it works with earlier versions, and several OCaml packages, which you can install by running
opam install dune dune-build-info dune-site menhir sedlex
If you also install the ledit or rlwrap utility, the Andromeda toplevel will use them to give you line editing capabilities.
Compilation
Checkout the Andromeda repository
git clone git@github.com:Andromedans/andromeda.git
or consider forking it if you indent do experiment with it, or contribute to the project.
To build Andromeda, run the command
dune build
in the andromeda folder. This will create the executable ./andromeda.exe. You can also run tests with
dune runtest
If you see no input, the tests passed.
Usage
You may run the compiled executable andromeda.exe. For basic usage and command-line options, run
./andromeda.exe --help
