PyCppAD — Python bindings for CppAD Automatic Differentiation library
======
**PyCppAD** is an open source framework which provides bindings for the CppAD Automatic Differentiation([CppAD](https://coin-or.github.io/CppAD/doc/cppad.htm)) C++ library in Python.
**PyCppAD** also includes support for the CppADCodeGen ([CppADCodeGen](https://github.com/joaoleal/CppADCodeGen)) library, which exploits CppAD functionality to perform code generation.
## Installing PyCppAD
### Installation via 
As simple as that:
```bash
conda install pycppad -c conda-forge
```
### Installation via PyPI
As simple as that:
```bash
pip install pycppad
```
### Installation by source
#### Dependencies
PyCppAD dependes on the following dependencies:
* [Boost.Python](http://boostorg.github.io/python/doc/html/index.html)
* [Eigen3](https://eigen.tuxfamily.org)
* [EigenPy](https://github.com/stack-of-tasks/eigenpy)
* [CppAD](https://coin-or.github.io/CppAD/doc/install.htm)
* [CppADCodeGen](https://github.com/joaoleal/CppADCodeGen) (Optional)
#### Compiling PyCppAD
Once the dependencies have been installed, follow the following commands to compile PyCppAD:
```
cd ${path_to_your_development_source}/
git clone --recursive https://github.com/Simple-Robotics/pycppad.git
cd pycppad
mkdir _build-RELEASE
cd _build-RELEASE
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${path_to_your_installation}
make install
```
Set up the `path_to_your_installation` and `path_to_your_development_source` based on your personal development environment.
Alternatively, in order to compile with [CppADCodeGen](https://github.com/joaoleal/CppADCodeGen) support, add `-DBUILD_WITH_CPPAD_CODEGEN_BINDINGS=ON` to the cmake command, and follow the build sequence as before:
```
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${path_to_your_installation} -DBUILD_WITH_CPPAD_CODEGEN_BINDINGS=ON
```
