Install ARTIQ via the Nix Package Manager
|
|
=========================================
|
|
|
|
These instructions provide an alternative route to install ARTIQ for people who do not wish to use conda.
|
|
|
|
This sets up an environment suitable for using ARTIQ, including the ARTIQ-Python compiler, device drivers, and the graphical user interfaces. This works correctly on Linux, and partially works (but not to a level that we would consider usable) with WSL introduced in Windows 10.
|
|
|
|
ARTIQ firmware and gateware development tools (e.g. rustc, Migen) and ARTIQ core device flashing tools (OpenOCD, proxy bitstreams) are currently not available on Nix. Pull requests welcome!

* Install the Nix package manager
|
|
|
|
* many Linux distros already have a package for the `Nix package manager <http://nixos.org/nix/>`_
|
|
|
|
* for example: ``$ apt-get install nix``
|
|
|
|
* if you would like to install via sh
|
|
|
|
* $ ``wget https://nixos.org/nix/install``
|
|
|
|
* $ ``sh install``
|
|
|
|
* $ ``source ~/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh``
|
|
|
|
* $ ``git clone github.com/m-labs/artiq``
|
|
* $ ``cd artiq/nix``
|
|
* $ ``nix-env -i -f default.nix``
|
|
|
|
The above command will setup your entire environment. Note that it will compile LLVM and Clang, which uses a lot of CPU time and disk space.
