Installation

Installation

Both the amygdala daemon and the gda client are single, stand-alone binaries that require no installation beyond ensuring the executable is on your $PATH.

Using the module system, the launcher is available via

$ module load gda_launcher

This will make the most recent stable release available. If you would like to test a pre-release version you can use

$ module load gda_launcher/nightly

or see a list of available versions with

$ module avail gda_launcher

You can check the path is set up correctly and you have the version you expect with --version.

$ gda --version

Downloading binaries

The built binaries for each version will be made available by CI in the repo and can be downloaded from the release page here.

Building from source

Both components can be built by cloning the source from here and running

cargo build --release --all

You will need the rust/cargo toolchain to be available - see rustup.rs. See development section for more details.
