Install

In order to build and work with melrose on your operating system, the following components need to be installed:

• melrose executable program
• (optionally) Melrōse plugin for Visual Studio Code

Depending on your operating system, different steps are required.

[all platforms] Melrōse plugin for Visual Studio Code

Search and install the extension from the editor or go to the Marketplace published package

[all platforms] Go SDK.

You need to install the Go SDK for compiling the program on your machine.

Mac OSX

go install github.com/emicklei/melrose/cmd/melrose@latest

After installing melrōse, you can start the tool in a Terminal using:

$ melrose

If this command cannot be found then you need to add $GOPATH/bin to your PATH.

Linux

On Ubuntu / Debian

sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev

You need to install the Go SDK for compiling the program on your machine.

go install -v github.com/emicklei/melrose/cmd/melrose...@latest

After installing both libasound2 and melrōse, you can start the tool in a Terminal using:

$ melrose

If this command cannot be found then you need to add $GOPATH/bin to your PATH.

Windows

Look at the build script (.travis.yml) of melrose-windows for detailed steps to build an executable from source.
