Dependencies

• cmake >= 3.5
• All OSes: click here for installation instructions
• make >= 4.1
  • Linux: make is installed by default on most Linux distros
  • Mac: install Xcode command line tools to get make
  • Windows: Click here for installation instructions
• gcc/g++ >= 5.4
  • Linux: gcc / g++ is installed by default on most Linux distros
  • Mac: same deal as make - [install Xcode command line tools]((https://developer.apple.com/xcode/features/)
  • Windows: recommend using MinGW
• uWebSockets == 0.14, but the master branch will probably work just fine
  • Follow the instructions in the uWebSockets README to get setup for your platform. You can download the zip of the appropriate version from the releases page. Here's a link to the v0.14 zip.
  • If you have MacOS and have Homebrew installed you can just run the ./install-mac.sh script to install this.
• Fortran Compiler
  • Mac: brew install gcc (might not be required)
  • Linux: sudo apt-get install gfortran. Additionall you have also have to install gcc and g++, sudo apt-get install gcc g++. Look in this Dockerfile for more info.
• Ipopt
  • Mac: brew install ipopt
  • Linux
    • You will need a version of Ipopt 3.12.1 or higher. The version available through apt-get is 3.11.x. If you can get that version to work great but if not there's a script install_ipopt.sh that will install Ipopt. You just need to download the source from the Ipopt releases page or the Github releases page.
    • Then call install_ipopt.sh with the source directory as the first argument, ex: bash install_ipopt.sh Ipopt-3.12.1.
• CppAD
  • Mac: brew install cppad
  • Linux sudo apt-get install cppad or equivalent.
• Eigen. This is already part of the repo so you shouldn't have to worry about it.
• Simulator. You can download these from the releases tab (or here)
• Not a dependency but read the DATA.md for a description of the data sent back from the simulator.
