Getting started

Introduction

This page teaches how to get started with ATOMS module manager on the scilab platform towards a session example. It describes how one can install a module and load it in Scilab environment.

Atoms

• Configure ATOMS to display extra-informations

  -->atomsSetConfig('Verbose','True');

• List available modules

  -->atomsList();
  
        ampl_toolbox - An interface to load .nl files created by AMPL
         ANN_Toolbox - ANN Toolbox
              conmin - A Scilab interface to the conmin optimization method
               CUTEr - Testing environment for optimization and linear algebra solvers
         dace_scilab - This is a conversion of the well known DACE kriging toolbox for Matlab.
         dde_toolbox - Dynamic Data Exchange client for Scilab
          HYDROGRv50 - Models and function for operational hydrology
             lolimot - A fast neural network - LOcal LInear MOdel Tree
        module_lycee - Scilab pour les lycées
                NISP - Non Intrusive Spectral Projection
             plotlib - "Matlab-like" Plotting library for Scilab
            scilab2c - Translate Scilab code into C code
              scipad - Scipad 7.20
             simplex - This package contains the simplex optimization method
     sndfile_toolbox - Read & write sound files
             stixbox - Statistics toolbox for Scilab 5.2

• Install a module Installing a module download and extract it.

  -->atomsInstall('NISP');
  
      NISP (2.1) will be installed in the 'allusers' section
      Installing NISP (2.1) ... success

• Load a module The module is installed but it's not loaded in the scilab environment and its functionnalities are not available yet.

  By default, a module is added to the list of modules to load at Scilab start when it's installed. (>> More information on the autoload system :

  • atomsAutoloadList
  • atomsAutoloadAdd
  • atomsAutoloadDel
  ).

  -->atomsLoad('NISP');
        
      Start NISP Toolbox
        Load gateways
        Load help
        Load demos

• Remove a module:

  -->atomsRemove NISP
    
      NISP (2.1) will be removed from the 'allusers' section
      the package NISP (2.1) is currently loaded, It will removed at next Scilab restart
