= Installing GenoM3 =
This pages explains what need to be installed to run [[genom3|GenoM3]] (the program itself), the templates and some additional tools.

[[http://robotpkg.openrobots.org/|robotpkg]] is the preferred way to install the different program as it automatically takes care of dependencies. We indicate (the robotpkg path / or the git repository) in case you want to use the git version:

You will need to install (if not already done), the following software:

 * pocolibs (robotpkg/middleware/pocolibs / git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/pocolibs)
 * genom3 (robotpkg/wip/genom3 / git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/genom3). This is the genom3 program itself.
 * genom3-pocolibs (if you want to generate code usable with the pocolibs middleware) (robotpkg/wip/genom3-pocolibs / git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/genom3-pocolibs). This will install the pocolibs related GenoM3 template (pocolibs/server, pocolibs/client/c)
 * genom3-ros (if you want to generate code usable with ROS Comm middleare) (robotpkg/wip/genom3-ros / git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/genom3-ros). If you install it with robotpkg, it will install ROS, if it is not already installed on your machine. This will install all the ROS related GenoM3 template (ros/server, ros/client/c, ros/client/ros).

if you want to control your modules from tcl you need to install:

 * genomix (robotpkg/wip/genomix / git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/genomix)
 * tcl-genomix (robotpkg/wip/tcl-genomix / git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/tcl-genomix)
 * eltclsh (robotpkg/shell/eltclsh / wget http://distfiles.openrobots.org/eltclsh/eltclsh-1.12.tar.gz)

if you plan to use [[openprs|OpenPRS]] with [[transgen3|Transgen3]] as a supervisor to control your modules you need to install:

 * openprs (robotpkg/supervision/openprs / git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/openprs)
 * transgen3 (robotpkg/wip/transgen3 / git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/transgen branch genom3 (git checkout genom3))
 * genom3-openprs (robotpkg/wip/genom3-openprs / git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/genom3-openprs)

Through robotpkg, you just need to make update in the given directories above, where through git, you should need to do the follow commands:

{{{
       export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$INSTALL_DIR/lib/pkgconfig
}}}
then for each component:

{{{
       git clone git://git.openrobots.org/git/robots/ELEMENTYOUWANTTOINSTALL
       cd ELEMENTYOUWANTTOINSTALL
       ./bootstrap
       mkdir build && cd build
       ../configure --prefix=$INSTALL_DIR
       make install
}}}
