To install and use Rocq, we recommend relying on the Rocq platform or on a package manager (e.g. opam or Nix).
See https://coq.inria.fr/download and https://github.com/coq/coq/wiki#coq-installation to learn more.
If you need to build the stdlib from sources manually (e.g. to contribute to the stdlib or to write a Rocq package), the remainder of this file explains how to do so.
To compile the stdlib yourself, you need:
- Rocq Look into rocq-stdlib.opam for supported versions.
Opam (https://opam.ocaml.org/) is recommended to install Rocq.
$ opam switch create rocq --packages="ocaml-variants.4.14.1+options,ocaml-option-flambda"
$ eval $(opam env)
$ opam install rocq-core
should get you a reasonable Rocq environment to compile the stdlib. See the OPAM documentation for more help.
Nix users can also get all the required dependencies by running:
$ nix-shell
To build and install the stdlib do:
$ make
$ make install
Then, the recommended way to require standard library modules is From Stdlib Require {Import,Export,} <LibraryModules>., except for Byte
(use From Stdlib.Strings or From Stdlib.Init), Tactics (use
From Stdlib.Program or From Stdlib.Init), Tauto (use From Stdlib.micromega of From Stdlib.Init) and Wf (use From Stdlib.Program or From Stdlib.Init).
