Building from source

Here you have two options.

With setuptools

You will need a C++20 capable compiler and CMake >= 3.19 installed on your system. Then install our python dependencies via pip. Our python package dependencies are listed in requirements.txt in the root of this repository. Now you can call pip install .

E.g.:

cd jupedsim
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install .

Compile yourself

You will need a C++20 capable compiler and CMake >= 3.19 installed on your system. Then install our python dependencies via pip. Our python package dependencies are listed in requirements.txt in the root of this repository. Now you can generate makefiles with CMake, then compile and run the python library.

pip install -r jupedsim/requirements.txt
mkdir jupedsim-build
cd jupedsim-build
cmake ../jupedsim
make -j
source ./environment

The last line in the above description will populate the python path with the location of our python code and the native library.

Warning

When sourcing ./environment from the build folder you need to ensure JuPedSim is not installed in the current python environment. Otherwise there will be erroneous calls to the wrong python code, resulting in crashes and/or exceptions.
