First, create an OPAM switch:
opam switch create project ocaml-base-compiler.4.12.0
If prompted, run
eval $(opam env)
Then run
opam install -y utop odoc ounit2 qcheck bisect_ppx menhir ocaml-lsp-server ocamlformat ocamlformat-rpc
Now install packages specific to this project:
opam install -y opium sqlite3 cohttp cohttp-lwt-unix ANSITerminal yojson
You may need to install dependencies for these packages using sudo apt install or opam install.
You should start the server before running the client.
Go to the server directory using cd src/server. Then run make run. The server should be up and running.
Open a new terminal. Go to the client directory using cd src/client. Then run make run. The client interface should be up and running.
Go to the server directory using cd src/server. Then run make clean. The data files in the server side should have been all deleted.
Then, go to the client directory using cd src/client. Then run make clean again. The data files in the client side should have been all deleted.
Be sure to run make clean on both server and client side.
Note: running make clean permanently erases all data and cannot be restored.
To test our system, go to the src/server, src/client, and src/util directories and run make test. To generate documentations, go to the src directory and run make docs.
