OpenModelica is an open-source Modelica-based modeling and simulation environment intended for industrial and academic usage.
The User's Guide is automatically generated from the documentation repository.
The OpenModelica Compiler is the core of the OpenModelica project. OMEdit is the graphical user interface on top of the compiler. OMSimulator is a capable FMI and SSP-based Co-Simulation environment, available as a standalone version or integrated in OMEdit. In addition there are interactive environments OMNotebook, OMPlot and OMShell interaction with the OMCompiler as well as various other tools: OMOptim, OMParser, OMSens, OMSense_Qt.
OpenModelica.git is a superproject. Clone the project using one of:
# Faster pulling by using openmodelica.org read-only mirror (low latency in Europe; very important when updating all submodules)
# Replace the openmodelica.org pull URL with https://github.com/OpenModelica/OpenModelica.git if you want to pull directly from github
# The default choice is to push to your fork on github.com (SSH). Replace MY_FORK with OpenModelica to push directly to the OpenModelica repositories (if you have access)
MY_FORK=<MyGitHubUserName>
git clone --recurse-submodules https://openmodelica.org/git-readonly/OpenModelica.git
cd OpenModelica
git remote set-url --push origin [email protected]:$MY_FORK/OpenModelica.git
git submodule foreach --recursive 'git remote set-url --push origin `git config --get remote.origin.url | sed s,^.*/,[email protected]:'$MY_FORK'/,`'If you are a developer and want to update your local git repository to the latest developments or latest heads, use:
# After cloning
cd OpenModelica
git checkout master
git pull
# To checkout the latest master on each submodule run
# you will need to merge each submodule, but your changes will remain
git submodule foreach --recursive "git checkout master && git pull"
# Running master on all submodules might lead to build errors
# so use this to make sure you force all submodules to the commits
# from the OpenModelica glue project which are properly tested
git submodule update --force --init --recursiveIn order to push to the repository, you will push to your own fork of OpenModelica.git, etc. You will need to create a fork of each repository that you want to push to (by clicking the Fork button in the GitHub web interface).
If you do not checkout the repositories for some GUI clients (such as OMOptim.git), these directories will be ignored by autoconf and skipped during compilation.
To checkout a specific version of OpenModelica, say tag v1.16.2 do:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/OpenModelica/OpenModelica.git
cd OpenModelica
git checkout v1.16.2
git submodule update --force --init --recursiveIf you have issues building you can try to clean and reset the repository using:
git clean -fdx
git submodule foreach --recursive git clean -fdx
git reset --hard
git submodule foreach --recursive git reset --hard
git submodule update --init --recursiveTo check your working copy status and the hashes of the submodules, use:
git status
git submodule status --recursivegit clone https://openmodelica.org/git-readonly/OpenModelica.git OpenModelica-minimal
cd OpenModelica-minimal
git submodule update --init --recursive librariesWe automatically generate nightly builds for Windows and for various flavours of Linux. You can download and install them directly if you just want to run the latest development version of OpenModelica without the effort of compiling the sources yourself.
Here is a short example session. This example uses OMShell-terminal, but OMShell, mos-scripts, or OMNotebook work the same way.
$ cd trunk/build/bin
$ ./OMShell-terminal
