Script to install setlX on UNIX-like OS

Bash script to install the setlX interpreter on UNIX like Operating systems.

This script is based on the official instruction on how to install setlX, which can be found here: SetlX Official Website

Since the script is still under development, there are not many features. It is currently only working for Linux. It will work on macOS soon.

Installing setlX

You need to be root to execute the script, since you are copying files to /usr/local/ and changing the access permissions in order to make it executable. You also need to restart your computer to be able to use the setlX command.

Packages required: wget or curl, java

Changing version and paths

You are able to edit the script to change the setlX-version and the paths. By default, the values are:

setlx_version=2-5-1
TmpDir="$HOME/tmp/setlX"
JarDir="/usr/local/setlX/"
LibDir="$HOME/setlXlibrary"
BinDir="/usr/local/bin"

The TmpDir variable is used to check for a temporary folder. The setlX-binary will be downloaded and unzipped to $HOME/tmp/setlX by default. This folder will not be deleted after the installation has been finished!

If you want to change the path for the jar-files or the library-files, just change the paths for the JarDir and LibDir variables. Right now, you also have to change the paths in the following two lines by hand:

sed -i 's/setlXJarDirectory\=\"\.\"/setlXJarDirectory\=\"\/usr\/local\/setlX\/\"/' ${TmpDir}/setlX
sed -i 's/setlXlibraryPath\=\"\$HOME\/setlXlibrary\/\"/setlXlibraryPath\=\"\$HOME\/setlXlibrary\/\"/' ${TmpDir}/setlX
