# Installation
## Linux
1. Install the HDF5 libraries:
```bash
sudo apt-get install libhdf5-dev
```
If you intend to use *CAXS*, install the latest version of [OpenMPI](https://www.open-mpi.org/) as well
(support of `mpif08` is mandatory).
2. Download the tar.gz archive in the _dist_ directory.
3. Extract its content anywhere you want executing:
```bash
tar xzvf exorem.tar.gz
```
4. `cd` yourself into the extracted _dist/exorem_ directory, then compile the code executing:
```bash
make exorem
```
5. Test the installation executing:
```bash
cd bin
./exorem.exe --version
```
Then:
```bash
./exorem.exe ../inputs/example.nml
```
Notes:
- you can compile all the programs coming with *Exo-REM* executing:
```bash
make
```
- you can compile the debug version (slower, but more informative on error) of *Exo-REM* executing:
```bash
make exorem_debug
```
or, for all the programs:
```bash
make debug
```
## Windows 10
1. Install your favourite Linux distribution on your computer following [these instructions](
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/wsl/install-win10).
2. Launch the Linux application.
3. Execute inside the Linux terminal:
```bash
apt-get update -y
apt-get upgrade -y
apt-get install -y build-essential
```
3. Follow the installation steps for Linux.
Note: to access to a Windows directory from your Linux application, use `/mnt`.
For example to `cd` into _C:\Users_ execute `cd /mnt/c/Users`.
