sudo apt-get install libseekthermal*
or selected packages using your favorite package management tool
Building from source
To build from source, this project requires the CMake build system with an open-source macro extension called ReMake.
Preparing the build system
If you already have installed ReMake on your build system, you may skip this step. Otherwise, before attempting to build this project the traditional CMake way, you must install ReMake following these instructions.
Installing build dependencies
The build dependencies of this project are available from the standard package repositories of recent Ubuntu releases. To install them, simply use the command
sudo apt-get install doxygen pkg-config
Building with CMake
Once ReMake is available on your build system, you may attempt to build this
project the CMake way. Assuming that you have cloned the project sources into
PROJECT_DIR
, a typical out-of-source build might look like this:
-
Create a build directory using
mkdir -p PROJECT_DIR/build
-
Switch into the build directoy by
cd PROJECT_DIR/build
-
In the build directory, run
cmake PROJECT_DIR
to configure the build
-
If you want to inspect or modify the build configuration, issue
ccmake PROJECT_DIR
-
Build the project using
make
-
If you intend to install the project, call
make packages_install
(from packages on Debian-based Linux only) or
make install
API documentation
This project generates its API documentation from source. To access it, you
may either inspect the build directory tree after the project has been built
using make
or install the documentation package through
sudo apt-get install libseekthermal-doc
