Standard Go Install

The simplest way to install is via standard Go install procedures (at some point we may have binary packages, and are looking into the vendoring vgo stuff) -- something like this:

GOBIN=/path/to/writable/bin go get -u github.com/emer/emergent/...   # ignore warnings and just see if it builds
  • If that doesn't work, here's some individual steps. First get the source:
> go get github.com/emer/emergent    # ignore any warnings about no go files, etc.
  • Go to the examples/leabra25ra directory and make sure all dependencies are installed (and updated)
> cd ~/go/src/github.com/emer/emergent/examples/leabra25ra    # use `$GOPATH` instead of `~/go` if you have that set
> go get [-u] ./...    # the -u may be needed but will take a lot longer -- try without first..
  • Important: IGNORE any error messages you see from go get (including "no go files..") -- the only thing that matters is what happens with go build! get somehow gets confused with a few things..

  • You may get a bunch of warnings about "text-based stub file... libraries out of sync" -- these appear to be harmless and can safely be ignored. This appears to be a particular problem with recent xcode versions and no obvious remedy is currently available.

  • OpenGL on Mojave(?): if you get the following kind of error, install xcode. The following command SHOULD work, but if it does not, then install xcode from the app store (free, but a long download):

In file included from ../../../../../golang.org/x/mobile/gl/work.go:28:
./work.h:22:10: fatal error: 'OpenGL/gl3.h' file not found
#include <OpenGL/gl3.h>

> xcode-select --install
