Installation

To install this package, first, you need to install a julia executable from its official website. Version v1.0.0 and above is required. This package may not work on v0.7 and below.

If you are using a Mac, and have Homebrew installed, open Terminal.app and type:

brew cask install julia

Now I am using macOS as a standard platform to explain the following steps:

  1. Open Terminal.app, and type julia to start a Julia session.

  2. Run

    julia> using Pkg; Pkg.update()
    
    julia> pkg"add AbInitioSoftwareBase"

    and wait for its finish.

  3. Run

    julia> using AbInitioSoftwareBase

    and have fun!

  4. While using, please keep this Julia session alive. Restarting may recompile the package and cost some time.

Reinstall

  1. In the same Julia session, run

    julia> Pkg.rm("AbInitioSoftwareBase"); Pkg.gc()
  2. Press ctrl+d to quit the current session. Start a new Julia session and repeat the above steps.
