# InstallVulkanSDK
A Python 3.6 script to install LunarG Vulkan SDK in Ubuntu 18.04.
Tested on Ubuntu 18.04 with linux kernel (5.0.0-23-generic to 5.3.0-53-generic) and with Vulkan SDK versions:
`1.2.141.2`, `1.2.135.0`, `1.2.131.2`, `1.2.131.1`,
`1.1.130.0`, `1.1.126.0`, `1.1.121.1`, `1.1.114.0`, `1.1.108.0`,
`1.1.106.0`, `1.1.101.0`, `1.1.97.0`, `1.1.92.1`, `1.1.85.0`,
`1.1.82.1`, `1.1.82.0`, `1.1.77.0`, `1.1.73.0`, `1.1.70.1`,
`1.1.70.0`,
`1.0.68.0`, `1.0.65.0`, `1.0.61.1`, `1.0.61.0`, `1.0.57.0`,

`1.0.24.0`, `1.0.21.1`, `1.0.21.0`, `1.0.17.0`, `1.0.13.0`,
`1.0.11.0`, `1.0.8.0`, `1.0.5.0`, `1.0.3.1`
## Preliminary
Clone/Download `InstallVulkanSDK` to your Ubuntu system. You need to use the python script `installVulkanSDK.py` to perform the installation.
## Install LunarG Vulkan SDK
1. You need to decide on these user inputs before running *installVulkanSDK.py*:
- The SDK version number you want to install, e.g. `1.0.61.1`.
- The full path of your Vulkan directory, e.g. `~/Vulkan` or `~/New/Directory/Vulkan`.
If the directory/directories does/do not exist, this script will create it/them.
2. Run python script to locally install Vulkan SDK:
- Run script with command `python3.6 installVulkanSDK.py` to install SDK with no Environment Settings.
_Note_: This Python 3.6 script will install all the prerequisite packages outlined in LunarG's documentation https://vulkan.lunarg.com/doc/view/latest/linux/getting_started.html#user-content-packages before it installs your desired LunarG Vulkan SDK version.
## Runtime Environment Settings
You need to "Set up the runtime environment" as stated in LunarG's Vulkan documentation, e.g.
`source ~/NewVulkanDirectory/VulkanSDK/1.x.yyy.z/setup-env.sh`.
## Environment Variable Persistence
For the above environment settings to be present at every Ubuntu 18.04 login sessions, you need to open your `.profile` file in your home directory, append `source $HOME/NewVulkanDirectory/VulkanSDK/1.x.yyy.z/setup-env.sh` to the file, save `.profile` followed by `source ~/.profile`.
## Motivation
I created this Python 3.6 script to help me install the LunarG Vulkan SDK as its version evolves. I hope it can benefit fellow Vulkan users. Please raise an issue if you notice any correction/improvement is needed. Thanks.
