How to Install Dune
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Dune is available as an Opam package. First, make sure that Opam is installed:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: console
|
|
|
|
$ opam --version
|
|
2.1.5
|
|
|
|
Any version higher than 2.0.0 is supported, though preferably at least 2.1.0.
|
|
|
|
If Opam is not available, follow `the official instructions on the Opam website
|
|
<https://opam.ocaml.org/doc/Install.html>`_ to install it and then run its
|
|
global setup with ``opam init``.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Opam requires a "shell hook" to work properly. Make sure to set it up
|
|
correctly during ``opam init``. Otherwise you will have to run ``eval $(opam
|
|
env)`` every time you create an Opam switch or change directory.
|
|
|
|
Then, you can install Dune in an Opam switch using the following command:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: console
|
|
|
|
$ opam install dune
|
|
|
|
After the command completes, the following should display a version number:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: console
|
|
|
|
$ dune --version
|
|
3.12.1
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
In most cases, when using Opam you will not need to install Dune by hand.
|
|
Installing the project's dependencies will install it in the Opam switch.
