Examples

Example 1: Installing a module from a repository

// Display some additional information
atomsSetConfig("Verbose","True");

// Load the test repository
atomsRepositoryAdd("http://scene1.test.atoms.scilab.org");

// Install a module
atomsInstall("toolbox_1");

// Install a specific version
atomsInstall(["toolbox_2" "2.0"]);

// Install several modules
atomsInstall(["toolbox_4" "1.0" ; "toolbox_2" "1.0"]);

// Install a module in the user section
atomsInstall(["toolbox_5"],"user");

// Install a module in the allusers section
// (write access on SCI directory is needed):
atomsInstall(["toolbox_6" "1.0";"toolbox_3" "1.0"], ..
             "allusers");

// Get the list of installed modules:
disp( atomsGetInstalled() );

// Cleaning :)
atomsRemove(["toolbox_1"; ..
             "toolbox_2"; ..
             "toolbox_3"; ..
             "toolbox_4"; ..
             "toolbox_5"; ..
             "toolbox_6"]);

Example 2: Installing a local module. As well as installing modules from the central repository, you can also install modules directly from your own machine.

// Display some additional information
atomsSetConfig("Verbose","True");

// Install a module
atomsInstall(SCI+"/modules/atoms/tests/unit_tests/toolbox_7_1.0-1.bin.zip");

// Get the list of installed modules:
disp( atomsGetInstalled() );

// Cleaning :)
atomsRemove("toolbox_7");
