| ====== Quickstart ====== | ====== Quickstart ====== | ||
| - | You need | + | To run it you need: |
| - | * GNU bash as a default Bourne shell (''/bin/sh'') -- this is not true in Ubuntu!!! they have dash, change it -- just uninstall it | + | * **required** to run VARDA: [[http://www.swi-prolog.org/|SWI Prolog]] |
| - | * SWI Prolog | + | * //needed// to build visual models [[http://graphviz.org/|GraphViz]] |
| - | * GraphViz | + | * //needed// for automatic visualisation: [[http://www.imagemagick.org/|ImageMagick]] and [[http://directory.fsf.org/project/bash/|GNU Bash]] (Warning: under Unix, you need GNU bash as a default Bourne shell (''/bin/sh'') -- this is not the case with Ubuntu!!! it ships //dash//, change it: ''sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash'' and answer //No// to the question: //Install dash as /bin/sh?//, or uninstall //dash//.) |
| - | * ImageMagick | + | |
| + | ===== GNU/Linux ===== | ||
| To use it: | To use it: | ||
| Line 28: | Line 50: | ||
| ./varda therm-model.pl | ./varda therm-model.pl | ||
| - | In Varda, try ''vardahelp.'' | + | In Varda, try ''hlp.'' |
| While working in Varda you are in the pure SWI shell, just use Prolog :-) | While working in Varda you are in the pure SWI shell, just use Prolog :-) | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you want to load a model when you are in VARDA simply use: | ||
| + | ?- [therm-model]. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Models: | ||
| + | * ''therm-model.pl'' the [[hekate:hekate_case_thermostat]] | ||
| + | * ''userv-model-alpha.pl'' the UServ case. | ||
| + | * ''elevator-model.pl'' an example elavator system. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Batch mode ===== | ||
| + | In a Unix shell it is possible to use VARDA in a batch mode, specifying goal from the commandline, e.g.: | ||
| + | ./varda hekate_case_thermostat-model.pl -t sar. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Windows ===== | ||
| + | If you use Windows, you can still use VARDA, but automatic visualization would not work (it requires a Unix-like environment). | ||
| + | Just run SWI Prolog, and: | ||
| + | ?- [varda]. | ||
| + | ?- [therm-model]. | ||
| + | If you have Graphviz under Windows, you can generate pictures manually, e.g.: | ||
| + | ?- sar('therm-ard.dot'). | ||
| + | ?- shi('therm-tph.dot'). | ||
| + | ?- gax. | ||
| + | ?- sxt('therm-xtt.dot'). | ||
| + | And then run Graphviz DOT: | ||
| + | dot -T png therm-ard.dot > therm-ard.png | ||
| + | |||

| + | ====== FAQ ====== | ||
| + | ===== ARD Design Levels ===== | ||
| + | In ARD+ you can directly see anly the most detailed (last level). | ||
| + | If you want to see previous levels, you can either: | ||
| + | * comment out parts of the model | ||
| + | * ''hic'' to previous levels in VARDA | ||
| + | If you want to manually collapse the history, and display the ARD and TPH, use: | ||
| + | ''ard_hist_collapse'' insteand of ''hic'' and then ''sar'' and ''shi''. | ||

| - | ===== CVS Access ===== | ||
| - | The code in currently in the CVS at charon. | ||
| - | It has a restricted access. | ||
| - | One has to be in the //hades// group. | ||
| - | This includes the team working on tools and examples. | ||
| - | To check out, use: | + | Patches and suggestions welcomed! |
| - | export CVSROOT=:ext:kinio@charon.ia.agh.edu.pl/mnt/cvs/cvs-hades | + | |
| - | export CVS_RSH=ssh | + | The development is not public. |
| - | cvs co varda | + | |
| - | Put your user name instead of ''kinio''. | + | Developers see [[hekatedev:hades]] |
| - | ===== XML support ===== | ||
| - | Property removal during transform. | ||
| - | <del>Modified ''varda_model'' look for ''FIXED4XML''. | ||
| - | ''sar.'' works, but painfully, ''shi.'' ok, ''gax'' seems ''ok'' :-) | ||
| - | --- //[[gjn@agh.edu.pl|Grzegorz J. Nalepa]] 2008/01/26 15:27//</del> works fine --- //[[wojnicki@agh.edu.pl|Igor Wojnicki]] 2008/01/28 02:07// | ||
