This package contains `leanproject`, a supporting tool for [Lean mathlib](https://leanprover-community.github.io/).

## Installation

Those tools use python3, at least python 3.5, which is the oldest
version of python supported by the python foundation. They can be
installed using [pip](https://pypi.org/project/mathlibtools/). The basic
install command is thus:
```
pip install mathlibtools
```
Depending on your setup you may need to preface this command with
`sudo`, and `pip` may be called `pip3` to distinguish it from its
deprecated python2 version. For instance on Debian or Ubuntu, you can
install `pip` using `sudo apt install python3-pip` and then run `sudo
pip3 install mathlibtools` to install mathlib tools system-wide.
If you want to use the latest development version, you can clone this
repository, go to the repository folder, and run `pip install .`.

You also need to have [elan](https://github.com/Kha/elan) already
installed.

If you are using NixOS, you can also install mathlib tools using the bundled `default.nix` file:
```
nix-env -if https://github.com/leanprover-community/mathlib-tools/archive/master.tar.gz
```

## Basic usage

Everything is done using the `leanproject` command-line tool. You can
use `leanproject --help` to get the list of available commands and
options.

### Getting an existing Lean project

The command to fetch an existing project from GitHub and make sure it
includes a copy of mathlib ready to go is `leanproject get name` where
name is either a git url, such as `https://github.com/leanprover-community/tutorials.git`
or `git@github.com:leanprover-community/tutorials.git`, or a GitHub project
identifier such as `leanprover-community/tutorials`. The organization
name defaults to `leanprover-community` so the simplest way get the tutorials
project is to run:

```
leanproject get tutorials
```
You can specify a git branch name `my_branch` by appending 
`:my_branch` at the end of the specified name (without space). 
You can also specify a target directory name as a second argument to the
command.

### Creating a new project

You can create a project in a new folder `my_project` by running:
```
leanproject new my_project
```
If you omit the argument, the project will be created directly inside
the current folder. This new project will be using the latest version of
Lean compatible with mathlib, and include a pre-built mathlib.

### Building a project

Only mathlib itself comes with pre-built olean files. In order to build
oleans in a project (which is needed for every non-trivial project in
order to get decent interactive Lean speed), you can use:
```
leanproject build
```

### Getting mathlib oleans

In an existing project depending on mathlib (or in mathlib itself), you
can run:
```
leanproject get-mathlib-cache
```
to download a compiled mathlib at the commit currently specified in the
project `leanpkg.toml` (see the next section if you want to update this
commit and get the latest mathlib).

### Upgrading mathlib

In an existing project depending on mathlib, you can upgrade to the
latest mathlib version by running:
```
leanproject upgrade-mathlib
```
This can be abbreviated to `leanproject up`.
By default, this will update the version of Lean used by this project to
match the latest version compatible with mathlib. You can forbid such an
upgrade by using `leanproject --no-lean-upgrade upgrade-mathlib`.

## Advanced usage

### Global mathlib install

If you want to use mathlib outside of a Lean project, you can run:
```
leanproject global-install
```
This will put a pre-compiled mathlib inside `$HOME/.lean`, the user-wide
Lean project whose dependencies can be used by lean files outside
projects. You can upgrade this project using:
```
leanproject global-upgrade
```

### Adding mathlib to an existing project

If you already have a Lean project but it doesn't use mathlib yet, you
can go to the project folder and run:
```
leanproject add-mathlib
```
By default, this will update the version of Lean used by this project to
match the latest version compatible with mathlib. You can forbid such an
upgrade by using `leanproject --no-lean-upgrade add-mathlib`.

### Project olean cache

In any Lean project, it can be useful to store and retrieve olean files,
especially if the project has several git branches. Storing oleans is
done by:
```
leanproject mk-cache
```
while retrieving them is done by:
```
leanproject get-cache
```
One should note that, although olean files are indeed the primary target
here, these commands actually store everything from the
`src` and `test` folders of the current project.

If the project is mathlib itself, the caches will be stored in
`$HOME/.mathlib/`. Otherwise, they will be stored in a folder `_cache` inside
the project top-level folder. They are named after the corresponding git
commit hash.

In general, using these commands in a dirty git repository (*ie* a
repository whose working copy contains uncommitted changes) is a bad
idea. You can do it anyway by running `leanproject mk-cache --force` or
`leanproject get-cache --force` respectively.

The `--force` option will also overwrite existing cache for the current
git revision.

When using `get-cache` inside the mathlib project, the local cache in
`$HOME/.mathlib/` will be searched first, before trying to download it.
You can force download by running 
`leanproject --force-download get-cache`. This `--force-download` option
can also be used with the `upgrade-mathlib` command.

### Git hooks

If you want leanproject to fetch olean caches after each `git checkout`,
and make olean caches after each `git commmit` in the current project,
you can run:
```
leanproject hooks
```
Beware this will overwrite any `post-checkout` or `post-commit` file you
might have in your project `.git/hooks`.

### Cache download url handling

By default, leanproject will try to find mathlib olean files hosted on an
Azure server. You permanently override the base url it uses by running:
```
leanproject set-url my_url
```
so that leanproject will look for caches at
`my_url/relevant_git_hash.tar.gz`. You can override this base url
for one invocation using `leanprover --from-url my_url ...`
(where `...` denotes a command and its arguments).

### Time-stamps diagnostic and repairing

`lean` uses timestamps to decide whether an olean file should be
recompiled. You can use:
```
leanproject check
```
to check that every olean from the core library and mathlib is more
recent than its source. In case there is some issue, `leanproject` will
propose to reset timestamps. Of course doing so is a good idea only if
you are sure you didn't want to modify one of those lean files.

## Contributing

Pull requests are welcome. The heaving lifting is done in
`mathlibtools/lib.py` (which you can also use as a library for other
python programs that want to manipulate Lean projects). Command line
parsing is done in `mathlibtools/leanproject.py`, using the 
[click library](https://click.palletsprojects.com/en/7.x/).

Local testing is done using 
[pytest](https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/) and 
[tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). You'll need to have python
versions 3.5 to 3.8 at hand, which probably means you want to
use [pyenv](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv). You'll also need
[mypy](https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html) for static
analysis. Please do not add code without type annotations.

Tests in `tests/test_functional.py` are end-to-end tests that actually
download things from the internet and write on disk (in temporary
folders). They are pretty slow. Other test files are meant for unit tests.
Don't hesitate to add tests!

## Troubleshooting

If `leanproject` ends with a mysterious error message, you can run it 
using the `--debug` flag, e.g. `leanproject --debug new my_project`. 
It will then probably output a python trace that you'll be able to paste
in a GitHub issue or on [Zulip](https://leanprover.zulipchat.com/).
