Dependencies are not listed #3

Closed trickeydan closed 4 years ago

trickeydan commented 6 years ago

I have just tried to use this to get a working version of srcomp working.

Please could you list the dependencies that are required for init.sh to work, e.g npm, bower etc

I have also encountered an issue with invalid command bdist_wheel which I think is to do with python versions.

PeterJCLaw commented 6 years ago

The dependencies are checked for by the init.sh, with errors reported if they are missing. I'd rather not duplicate them beyond that, especially as the script is already duplicating them out of the individual repos which it is setting up.

I suspect the lack of bdist_wheel on your system is a result of using an old version of setuptools -- can you run pip list in your environment?

trickeydan commented 6 years ago

setuptools (39.0.1)

Also of note, the init.sh script currently defaults to Python 2, rather than Python 3.

PeterJCLaw commented 6 years ago

That setuptools looks fairly recent. @prophile what does bdist_wheel rely on? Is there a reason that @trickeydan wouldn't have it?

SRComp supports Python 2 and 3, though it has been used on Python 2 much more. I don't think there's immediate cause to change the default.

Note that this repo is intended for developers who want to understand SRComp. As a result I see the init.sh as being documentation as much as code, and very much as something which the user will likely be able to poke around as needed. I don't see this repo as a way to set up a black-box SRComp for building on top of. For that, I would recommend using https://github.com/PeterJCLaw/srcomp-puppet to configure a compbox.
