Category theory group projects at UniMath workshop, Birmingham, Dec 2017
The Coq code depends on the UniMath library, available from http://github.com/UniMath/UniMath, and the UniMath/TypeTheory library, http://github.com/UniMath/TypeTheory
To compile these, follow the installation instructions given for those libraries, including make install to install the compiled .vo files into the user-contrib directory of UniMath’s Coq.
You will also need to make UniMath’s Coq available for working on this library. The simplest way is to install it globally as the default Coq on your system, by adding its location to your $PATH. To do this for just your current session, navigate to your copy of the UniMath repository, and call
$ PATH=$PATH:`pwd`/sub/coq/bin/
or to make it persistent, modify your shell configuration file (usually ~/.bash_profile or similar) by calling
echo "export PATH=\"`pwd`/sub/coq/bin/:\$PATH\"" >> ~/.bash_profile
Alternatively, if you do not want to make UniMath’s Coq your default, you can add an alias for its directory to your shell config file by calling (from within the UniMath toplevel directory)
echo "export UNIBIN=\"`pwd`/sub/coq/bin/\"" >> ~/.bash_profile
If you have UniMath’s Coq installed in your $PATH (as per the first suggestion above), then our library can be built just with make from within the toplevel directory of the repository.
Otherwise, you need to pass the location of the UniMath coqc binary by hand, as e.g. make COQBIN="~/src/UniMath/sub/coq/bin/", or make COQBIN=$UNIBIN if you have added an alias as suggested above.
To install these files in user-contrib for further import in other libraries, issue make install (again, specifying COQBIN if necessary).
Similarly, to use these files in Proof General, you must make sure the correct coqtop is called. If UniMath’s Coq is installed globally, this will be automatic. Otherwise, it may be either permanently set in the option coq-prog-name, or prompted for at each invocation by setting proof-prog-name-ask to true in the Proof General customisation options.
