Install ARTIQ via the Nix Package Manager
===========================
=========================================
Nix does not support windows.
These instructions provide an alternative route to install ARTIQ for people who do not wish to use conda.
* Install the nix package manager
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 with WSL introduced in Windows 10.
* many linux distros already have a package for the `nix package manager <http://nixos.org/nix/>`_
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!
* for example: $ apt-get install nix
* Install the Nix package manager
* if you would like to install via sh (please be sure you `understand <https://www.seancassidy.me/dont-pipe-to-your-shell.html>`_ the dangers involved when curl piping to sh. Also ensure you have read the contents of the script and feel comfortable executing it. Otherwise there is the `manual <http://nixos.org/nix/manual/>`_)
* many Linux distros already have a package for the `Nix package manager <http://nixos.org/nix/>`_
* $ curl https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh
* for example: ``$ apt-get install nix``
* $ source ~/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh
* if you would like to install via sh
* $ git clone github.com/m-labs/artiq
* $ cd artiq/nix
* $ nix-env -i -f default.nix
* $ ``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.
