External dependencies

opam

The pycoq calls opam package manager to install and run the coq-serapi and coq binaries. The pycoq assumes that opam binary of version 2.* is in the $PATH.

On Ubuntu 20.04 install opam with sudo apt-get install opam. See https://opam.ocaml.org/doc/Install.html for other systems.

strace

The pycoq calls strace to inspect the building of coq-projects to prepare the context. The pycoq assumes
that strace is in the $PATH.

On Ubuntu 20.04 install strace with sudo apt-get install strace. See https://github.com/strace/strace for other systems.

Install from github

Assuming python>=3.8 and pip are in your python environment (we recommend to use conda or python venv) to install from github run

pip install git+https://github.com/IBM/pycoq

Test your setup

From your python environment with pycoq installed run

pytest --pyargs pycoq

Config pycoq

The location of the project directory, debug level and other parameters can be specified in the config file $HOME/.pycoq

By default, pycoq uses directory $HOME/.local/share/pycoq to store temporary files such as the opam repository, project files and the logs. To remove the project directory:

rm -fr $HOME/.local/share/pycoq

To remove the config file:

rm $HOME/.pycoq
