cmdstan installation
Minimal requirement
Note: CmdStan.jl and CmdStan refer to this Julia package. The executable C++ program is 'cmdstan'.
To run this version of the CmdStan.jl package on your local machine, it assumes that the cmdstan executable is properly installed.
In order for CmdStan.jl to find the cmdstan you need to set the environment variable JULIA_CMDSTAN_HOME
to point to the cmdstan directory, e.g. add
export JULIA_CMDSTAN_HOME=/Users/rob/Projects/Stan/cmdstan
launchctl setenv JULIA_CMDSTAN_HOME /Users/rob/Projects/Stan/cmdstan
to ~/.bash_profile
or add ENV["JULIA_CMDSTAN_HOME"]="./cmdstan"
to ./julia/etc/startup.jl
.
I typically prefer cmdstan not to include the cmdstan version number so no update is needed when cmdstan is updated.
