Installation
If you already installed Victor go directly to the tutorial page.
Download
The source code as well as the precompiled version of the software are available in GitHub. You can download it directly from [GitHub]
Alternatively you can clone Victor into your local repository. Assuming you already have installed the Git software, just type in a terminal:
git clone https://github.com/BioComputingUP/Victor.git <your_folder>
Compile
If you successfully got the source code, now you need to compile it. Before compiling, please check that the g++ compiler is installed in your system and set a couple of environment variables in the makefile.global or just type the following command, replacing <your_folder> with the Victor main directory and remember to put the tailing "/" to avoid strange errors:
export VICTOR_ROOT=/<your_folder>/victor/ export PATH=$PATH:/<your_folder>/victor/bin/
Now, to compile the library simply do:
make clean make install
After that you should obtain the following folder structure:
bin/ // a copy of all "APPS" executable lib/ // libraries data/ // symbolic links to the content of the "Data" folder inside packages samples/ // some PDB files for testing purpose tools/ // some helper classes Biopool/ // the Biopool package /APPS /Data /Sources Align2/ // the Align package /APPS /Sources Energy/ // the Energy package /APPS /Data /Sources Lobo/ // the Lobo package /APPS /Data /Sources
