The easier way to install this library is by using OPAM:
opam install mindstorm
for the standard version and
opam install mindstorm-lwt
for the LWT one. If you prefer to compile and install by hand, make sure you have dune and the dependencies listed in src/dune and lwt/dune, then run
dune build @install
dune install mindstorm
dune install mindstorm-lwt
Two modules are available: Mindstorm and Mindstorm_lwt with
essentially the same signatures, except that the second one—as its
name indicates—is to be used with Lwt.
You need the package libbluetooth-dev (under Debian) or equivalent.
For the USB connection, you must install the package libusb-1.0-0-dev
(its presence should be automatically detected).
Do not install the LEGO® fantom drivers. (If you know how to make this library work with the LEGO® drivers installed, submit a patch!)
At the moment, the package is not compatible with OSX.
You can compile the HTML doc with
make doc
and then point your browser to _build/default/_doc/index.html.
Alternatively, you can
read it online.
