    v3 v4  
    11= VSO Software = 
    22 
    3 Many VSO packages are available as installers at http://vso1.nascom.nasa.gov/installers/, but it may be worth [wiki:ContactUs contacting us] to make sure they're the most up-to-date versions. 
    43 
    5 The complete set of VSO modules are available through anonymous CVS. 
     4The VSO now has shell scripts to handle the majority of the installation.   
    65 
    7 == Connecting via CVS == 
     6See [wiki:InstallVSO] for details. 
    87 
    9 1. Install a CVS client 
    10  
    11   In order to get the VSO Data Provider interface and code examples you should have a cvs client. If you don't you can get one at:  
    12  
    13   http://www.cvshome.org  
    14  
    15   If this is problematic for you [wiki:ContactUs let us know] and we will package up a current set for you. 
    16  
    17 2. Connect to the VSO CVS server 
    18  
    19   a. Set the environmental variable CVSROOT to 
    20 {{{ 
    21 :pserver:anonymous@solarch.tuc.noao.edu:2401/vtarc1/vso/cvsroot 
    22 }}} 
    23 older versions of CVS may require 
    24 {{{ 
    25 :pserver:anonymous@solarch.tuc.noao.edu/vtarc1/vso/cvsroot 
    26 }}} 
    27 For example: 
    28 {{{ 
    29 # in bash/ksh 
    30  > export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@solarch.tuc.noao.edu:2401/vtarc1/vso/cvsroot 
    31 # in csh: 
    32  > setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anonymous@solarch.tuc.noao.edu:2401/vtarc1/vso/cvsroot 
    33 }}} 
    34  
    35   b. login to CVS 
    36 {{{ 
    37 > cvs login 
    38 }}} 
    39  
    40   c. Hit the enter key when prompted for a password 
    41  
    42   d. Download everything, or an individual module. 
    43 {{{ 
    44 # download everything 
    45  > cvs checkout vso 
    46 # download the 'DataProvider' inheritable 
    47  > cvs checkout DataProvider 
    48 }}} 
    49 This will create the directory 'vso' in the current directory, and the directory structure of the modules requested. 
    50  
    51 3. Install the modules 
    52  
    53   a. Change to the module directory 
    54 {{{ 
    55 # for the DataProvider inheritable 
    56  > cd vso/DataProviders/Inheritable/Perl 
    57 }}} 
    58  
    59   b. Run the configuration program 
    60 {{{ 
    61  > perl Makefile.PL 
    62 }}} 
    63  
    64   c. Build, test, and install the module. 
    65 {{{ 
    66  > make 
    67  > make test 
    68  > make install 
    69 }}} 
    70  
    71   d. Read the documentation.  You may need to examine the module's README file for its full name. 
    72 {{{ 
    73 # modules are installed in the 'Physics::Solar::VSO' heiarchy, but a VSO 
    74 # module may include more than one perl package 
    75  
    76 # continuing with the DataProvider example: 
    77  > perldoc Physics::Solar::VSO::DataProvider 
    78 }}} 
    79  
    80 ----- 
    81  
    82 === Note: === 
    83  
    84 In the case of Data Providers, it may also be worthwhile to look in the module's Examples directory, or to download some of the other VSO Data Provider code to use as a reference: 
    85  
    86 {{{ 
    87  > cvs checkout NSO 
    88  > cvs checkout OVRO 
    89  > cvs checkout SDAC 
    90  > cvs checkout SHA 
    91  > cvs checkout NGDC 
    92 }}} 
    93  
    94 Most modules also contain a README file, which contains basic information about usage, and may provide additional information that is specific to that module. 
    95  
    96 ----- 
    97  
    98 If you have problems connecting via CVS, please [wiki:ContactUs contact us], and we can generate tarballs or zip files of the installers.
