Idris plugin for the asdf version manager

asdf-idris

Idris plugin for asdf version manager

Install

asdf plugin-add idris https://github.com/vic/asdf-idris.git

Requirements

OSX

For OSX this plugin has no aditional requirements as it will download and install the pre-packaged binaries as built by the Idris team.

One important difference with downloading and installing the pkg by hand is that using asdf allows you to have many versions of Idris installed alongside.

If you are on OSX and want to install from cabal be sure to set ASDF_IDRIS_INSTALL=cabal in your shell environment.

Linux, Windows and Installing-from-source

When installing on other platforms (Linux, Windows), or when installing a specific source revision, you will need to have cabal install and cabal sandbox working on your system.

The easiest way to get them is by using an asdf managed haskell. After installing haskell with asdf, execute:

stack install cabal-install
asdf reshim haskell

Another way is to manually install the Haskell Platform. Follow the Installation Instructions for installing any aditional build-time dependency for your platform.

Use

Check asdf readme for instructions on how to install & manage versions of Idris.
