C++ Simulated Low Fare Search (LFS) Library

Summary

SimLFS aims at providing a clean API and a simple implementation (C++ library) of an airline-related Low Fare Search (LFS) system. That library uses the Standard Airline IT C++ object model (https://github.com/airsim/stdair).

SimLFS makes an extensive use of existing open-source libraries for increased functionality, speed and accuracy. In particular the Boost (C++ Standard Extensions: https://www.boost.org) library is used.

Installation

On Fedora/CentOS/RedHat distribution

Just use DNF (or Yum on older distributions):

$ dnf -y install simlfs-devel simlfs-doc

You can also get the RPM packages (which may work on Linux distributions like Novel Suse and Mandriva) from the Fedora repository (e.g., for Fedora Rawhide, https://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/devel/rawhide/x86_64/)

Building the library and test binary from Git repository

The Sourceforge Git repository may be cloned as following:

$ git clone git@github.com:airsim/simlfs.git simlfsgit # through SSH
$ git clone https://github.com/airsim/simlfs.git # if the firewall filters SSH
$ cd simlfsgit

Then, you need the following packages (Fedora/RedHat/CentOS names here, but names may vary according to distributions):

• cmake
• gcc-c++
• stdair-devel, airrac-devel, rmol-devel, airinv-devel, simfqt-devel
• boost-devel
• zeromq-devel
• readline-devel
• soci-mysql-devel
• python-devel
• gettext-devel (optional)
• doxygen, ghostscript, graphviz and tetex-latex (optional)
• rpm-build (optional)

Building the library and test binary from the tarball

The latest stable source tarball (simlfs*.tar.gz or .bz2) can be found on GitHub: https://github.com/airsim/simlfs/releases

To customise the following to your environment, you can alter the path to the installation directory:

export INSTALL_BASEDIR="${HOME}/dev/deliveries"
export LFS_VER="1.00.6"
if [ -d /usr/lib64 ]; then LIBSUFFIX="64"; fi
export LIBSUFFIX_4_CMAKE="-DLIB_SUFFIX=$LIBSUFFIX"
``

Then, as usual:
* To configure the project, type something like:
```bash
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/simlfs-${LFS_VER} \
   -DWITH_STDAIR_PREFIX=${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/stdair-stable \
   -DWITH_AIRRAC_PREFIX=${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/airrac-stable \
   -DWITH_RMOL_PREFIX=${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/rmol-stable \
   -DWITH_RMOL_PREFIX=${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/airinv-stable \
   -DWITH_RMOL_PREFIX=${INSTALL_BASEDIR}/simfqt-stable \
   -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug \
   -DINSTALL_DOC:BOOL=ON -DRUN_GCOV:BOOL=OFF ${LIBSUFFIX_4_CMAKE} ..

• To build the project, type:

  make
  

• To test the project, type:

  make check
  

• To install the library (libsimlfs*.so*) and the binary (simlfs), just type:

  make install
  

• To package the source files, type:

  make dist
  

• To package the binary and the (HTML and PDF) documentation:

  make package
