<h1>Build system</h1>
|
||
|
|
||
|
> _This document is a work in progress, only the Linux build system is taken into account here._
|
||
|
|
||
|
The most challenging part of the setup is to compile all the dependencies and
|
||
|
modules to be compatible with a) Unreal Engine in the server-side, and b) Python
|
||
|
in the client-side.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The goal is to be able to call Unreal Engine's functions from a separate Python
|
||
|
process.
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
In Linux, we compile CARLA and all the dependencies with clang-5.0 and C++17
|
||
|
standard. We however link against different runtime C++ libraries depending on
|
||
|
where the code going to be used, since all the code that is going to be linked
|
||
|
with Unreal Engine needs to be compiled using `libc++`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Setup
|
||
|
|
||
|
Command
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
make setup
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Get and compile dependencies
|
||
|
|
||
|
* llvm-5.0 (libc++ and libc++abi)
|
||
|
* rpclib-2.2.1 (twice, with libstdc++ and libc++)
|
||
|
* boost-1.67 (headers only)
|
||
|
* googletest-1.8.0 (with libc++)
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### LibCarla
|
||
|
|
||
|
Compiled with CMake (minimum version required CMake 3.9).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Command
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
make LibCarla
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Two configurations:
|
||
|
|
||
|
| | Server | Client |
|
||
|
|-----------------|--------------|-----------|
|
||
|
| **Unit tests** | yes | no |
|
||
|
| **Requires** | rpclib, gtest, boost | rpclib, boost
|
||
|
| **std runtime** | LLVM's `libc++` | Default `libstdc++` |
|
||
|
| **Output** | headers and test exes | `libcarla_client.a` |
|
||
|
| **Required by** | Carla plugin | PythonAPI |
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### CarlaUE4 and Carla plugin
|
||
|
|
||
|
Both compiled at the same step with Unreal Engine 4.19 build tool. They require
|
||
|
the `UE4_ROOT` environment variable set.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Command
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
make CarlaUE4Editor
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
To launch Unreal Engine's Editor run
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
make launch
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### PythonAPI
|
||
|
|
||
|
Compiled using Python's `setuptools` ("setup.py"). Currently requires the
|
||
|
following to be installed in the machine: Python, libpython-dev, and
|
||
|
libboost-python-dev; both for Python 2.7 and 3.5.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Command
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
make PythonAPI
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
It creates two "egg" packages
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `PythonAPI/dist/carla-0.9.0-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg`
|
||
|
* `PythonAPI/dist/carla-0.9.0-py3.5-linux-x86_64.egg`
|
||
|
|
||
|
This package can be directly imported into a Python script by adding it to the
|
||
|
system path
|
||
|
|
||
|
```python
|
||
|
#!/usr/bin/env python
|
||
|
|
||
|
import sys
|
||
|
|
||
|
sys.path.append(
|
||
|
'PythonAPI/dist/carla-0.9.0-py%d.%d-linux-x86_64.egg' % (sys.version_info.major,
|
||
|
sys.version_info.minor))
|
||
|
|
||
|
import carla
|
||
|
|
||
|
# ...
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
or installed with `easy_install`
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
easy_install2 --user --no-deps PythonAPI/dist/carla-0.9.0-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg
|
||
|
easy_install3 --user --no-deps PythonAPI/dist/carla-0.9.0-py3.5-linux-x86_64.egg
|
||
|
```
