Installation

Prerequisites

To get started with using ARCtrl, we first need to make sure some prerequisites are met. What these are depends on the programming language you are going to program in.

In any of the three cases, there are of course a plethora of different ways to setup your environment. These are therefore only suggestions to get started.

To use ARCtrl in F# or C#, the .NET SDK needs to be installed. We recommend Version .NET8.0.

To use ARCtrl in Javascript, nodejs needs to be installed. We recommend Version >=22.

Additionally, as an (at the moment still) implicit dependency you need to run

npm install @nfdi4plants/exceljs

Installation

Now you can install the ARCtrl package.

You can find the .NET package on nuget:

For .NET projects, you can just run

dotnet add package ARCtrl

For working in a script, you can easily reference the ARCtrl package from nuget.

#r "nuget: ARCtrl"

You can find the Javascript package on npm:

You can now import the main ARC class in your js source file

import {ARC} from "@nfdi4plants/arctrl";

You can find the Python package on PyPI:
