Installation Steps #16

Closed PatelKrutarth closed 7 years ago

PatelKrutarth commented 7 years ago

I have no experience with Scala, and very little with maven. So that I cannot be able to follow installation steps. I am using 64-bit Ubuntu 16.04. How can I install pdffigures2 on my machine?

PatelKrutarth commented 7 years ago

I used the command: $sbt compile And I think it is working now. Please let me know if I have done something wrong, or I need to perform other steps to install.

Thats all you need to do, sbt will take care of everything else. The instructions from the "Command Line Tools" section of the README should work out of the box. (Maybe we should clarify this) the "Installation" section is just for using the library as a dependency.

@chrisc36 I have no background in Scala as well. Can you please provide some steps to download and install pdffigure2? I spent all day working with maven but nothing works yet...

chrisc36 commented 6 years ago

We do not use maven, you need to install:

https://www.scala-sbt.org/1.0/docs/Setup.html

Then clone the repo and the "sbt" commands in the README should work.
