Installation

You are here on the installation guidelines. This page will guide through the installation process of idol.

There are two ways to install idol: a local installation (easy to use) and a global installation (for more advanced users).

Local Installation

A local installation lets CMake automatically download and install idol in a sub-folder of your CMake project. This is the easiest way to get started.

Global Installation

A global installation installs idol globally on your computer (e.g., in /usr/lib).

Options (External Solvers, etc.)

No matter which installation method you choose, you can customize the installation by setting a set of parameters accordingly. This is particularly useful if you want to install idol with some external solver such as Gurobi. Please refer to the complete list of options for more information.
