MOOSΒΆ

To build the MOOS middleware, you need to install MOOS and pymoos (MOOS Python bindings) on your system.

The instructions below install the new MOOS V10 release. Information on installing previous versions of MOOS and pymoos can be found on their respective homepages: MOOS homepage and pymoos homepage.

The pymoos bindings require at a minimum that the core MOOS packages be installed:

$ cd ~/
$ git clone https://github.com/themoos/core-moos.git
$ cd core-moos
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ../
$ make

Finally pymoos can be installed by:

$ git clone https://github.com/msis/python-moos pymoos
$ cd pymoos
$ mkdir build
$ cmake ../ -DPYBIND11_PYTHON_VERSION=3
$ make
$ sudo make install

Because pymoos supports both major versions of Python, it is necessary to make sure that version 3 is the one selected.

The installation can be verified by running import pymoos from a Python3 interpreter

$ python3
>>> import pymoos

If you receive and ImportError, then you need to add the installation path to PYTHONPATH

$ export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/local/lib/python3/dist-packages/

PS :: The installation path is printed with the install command.
