Basic Installation
|
|
==================
|
|
These instructions give a very basic overview of how to configure, compile and
|
|
install Open Babel on most systems. If you are using unique install locations
|
|
and/or libraries are not automatically detected please consult the 'Advanced'
|
|
section.
|
|
|
|
1. Create a 'build' directory:
|
|
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
|
|
2. Configure the build system. You can specify additional build
|
|
options at this time (see below):
|
|
|
|
cmake ..
|
|
|
|
3. Compile:
|
|
|
|
make -j2
|
|
|
|
4. Test (optional):
|
|
|
|
make test
|
|
|
|
5. Install:
|
|
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
Advanced
|
|
========
|
|
The build system (CMake) provides mechanisms for specifying
|
|
non-standard installation locations and enabling/disabling of optional
|
|
components.
|
|
|
|
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX : specify the installation prefix
|
|
(default /usr/local)
|
|
|
|
-DLIB_INSTALL_DIR : specify the install location for libraries
|
|
(default ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib)
|
|
|
|
-DEIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIR : specify the Eigen include directory
|
|
|
|
-DRUN_SWIG : specify whether to regenerate language bindings
|
|
|
|
-DPYTHON_BINDINGS : specify whether to build Python bindings
|
|
|
|
-DMINIMAL_BUILD : specify whether to do minimal build with just two
|
|
formats (SMI, SDF) useful for developers
|
|
|
|
-DBUILD_GUI : specify wether to build Open Babel GUI (wxWidgets required)
|
|
|
|
For more information please consult the CMake documentation and the
|
|
Open Babel website:

Environment Variables
|
|
==================
|
|
Open Babel uses a few environment variables to find things at
|
|
runtime. If Open Babel is installed to the location specified at
|
|
compile time, none of these variables need to be set.
|
|
|
|
BABEL_LIBDIR - the location of Open Babel format plugins
|
|
BABEL_DATADIR - the location of the data files
|
