Kaimini, a general purpose fitting and analysis front end

Introduction

Documentation

Currently there is only the API documentation and a very incomplete manual.

Dependencies

Kaimini is written in C++. To build it, the C++ Standard Library, some parts of the Boost C++ Libraries, Minuit2, the GNU Scientific Library (GSL), and CMake are required. Instructions about installing these dependencies are available in the Kaimini wiki.

Installation

To compile Kaimini and to install the kaimini executable (by default into /usr/local/bin on Unix), run these commands in Kaimini's source tree:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install

If Minuit2 is not installed into standard directories (e.g. under /usr/ or /usr/local/), CMake won't find it. In this case cmake must be invoked with the full path to the Minuit2 installation or source directory:

cmake -D Minuit2_ROOT=/path/to/Minuit2/installation/dir ..

Download

You can download Kaimini in either tar.gz or zip formats.

The version control system used for development of Kaimini is Git. The Git repository can be inspected and browsed online at GitHub and it can be cloned by running:

git clone git://github.com/fthomas/kaimini.git

Issues and feedback

For bug reports, feature requests, or general feedback either use the issue tracker or write me an email.
