DGtal is a generic open source library for Digital Geometry programming for which the main objective is to structure different developments from the digital geometry and topology community. The aims are numerous: make easier the appropriation of our tools for a neophyte (new PhD students, researchers from other topics,...), permit better comparisons from new methods with already existing approaches and to construct a federative project. Another objective of DGtal is to simplify the construction of demonstration tools to share new results and potential efficiency of the proposed work.
DGtal is an opensource free software written by researchers and students from the DGtal research community. We wish to keep an estimate of the number of persons using the library. This is really important for us to justify the ressources spent in developing this software. Please, take a few seconds to fill in the registration form: http://dgtal.org/registration/
-
Linux: Binary packages (Arch, CentOS, Fedora, openSUSE, RHEL, SL)
-
MacOS (using homebrew): brew install dgtal (
brew options dgtalto enable optional features) -
Windows: no binary package, please compile the library.
More details are given in the documentation pages. We just sketch the main instructions on linux/unix-based systems:
git clone https://github.com/DGtal-team/DGtal.git
cd DGtal ; mkdir buid ; cd build
cmake ..
make installMinimum system requirements: C++11 enabled compiler, cmake, boost (>= 1.46).
DGtal can be compiled on Microsoft Windows system using Visual Studio 2014 (or newer): Generate the Visual Studio project using windows cmake tool and compile the DGtal solution (you may also need to set the cmake variable BUILD_SHARED_LIBS to false).
DGtal core libarary is under the GNU LGPL v3 license (see LICENSE). DGtal documentation and website materials are under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 .
If some dependencies are activated, resulting binaries may follow the dependencies licenses. More precisely:
- If the library is built with the 3D internal viewer using libQGLViewer (
WITH_QGLVIEWERflag set totrue), then resulting binaries must follow libQGLViewer license (GNU GPL or commercial, see libQGLViewer licensing). - If CGAL is activated (
WITH_CGALoption), the resulting binaries are under GNU GPL v3 license if the source code uses Jet Fitting based differential estimators (see CGAL Estimation of Local Differential Properties of Point-Sampled Surfaces package)
