Installation
Get the sources from the subversion repository.
svn checkout svn://splatter.kin.ucalgary.ca/trunk/vtkski
See the section on svn for more info: Subversion (SVN)
From the vtkski project directory, create a build directory and use cmake to configure the build:
mkdir build cd build cmake-gui ..
The most important cmake variable is VTK_DIR. If you intend to also build the paraview plugins, then you must build vtkski against the internal version of VTK inside the paraview build directory. (See Paraview development if you need to install ParaView). As an example, on my system I set VTK_DIR to /home/eric/source/paraview-3.6.1/build/VTK.
Building Doxygen documentation
To build the Doxygen documentation, set the cmake variable BUILD_DOCUMENTATION to ON. This variable is marked as advanced. So far, building documentation has only been tested on Linux.
Documentation for vtkski
On-line documentation for vtkski... coming soon. For now, you can build the Doxygen documentation yourself.
