1. Installation

Database

• lemlat_db.sql: MySQL database dump used by LEMLAT 3.0 to process word-forms. All database tables are released under a CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 License.
• lemlat_documentation.pdf: description of the tables of lemlat_db and of the overall process of word-form analysis.

Build environment

Source code and build environments are in the folder lemlat_workspace:

• Makefiles and packaging scripts for GNU/Linux and OSX are stored in the lemlat_workspace/LemLat_client sub-folder.
• A Visual C solution is in the lemlat_workspace/winBuild sub-folder.

MySQL binaries are needed to build up the embedded databases.

Binaries

In the bin directory of LEMLAT we provide a Command-Line Interface (CLI) implementation of the word-form analysis for Linux, OSX and Windows operating systems. Two versions are available:

• a client version, which requires a working MySQL Server. A client installation means that the database and the main application are present on a server, and a client is installed on the computer of the user who will access the database on this server through a network.
• a standalone version, which uses an embedded version of the database. A standalone installation means that the database and all the information is stored on your local computer and no server is needed.

Client installation

Prerequisites

In order to use this version you need a working copy of MySQL Server, in which the provided dump of the LEMLAT database can be stored. Once the MySQL is installed and running:

• Navigate to the LEMLAT3/bin/folder.
• Download the .tar.giz or .zip archive containing the client version of LEMLAT 3.0 for your operating system. If you're working on a Linux machine, you can choose between the 32bit (linux_client.tar.gz) and 64bit (linux_client_64.tar.gz) archive.
• Extract the archive and open a console in the extracted directory;
• Edit the configuration file my.cnf.sample providing the information needed to access the database and save it as my.cnf.

Standalone installation

• Navigate to the LEMLAT3/bin/folder.
• Download the archive containing the embedded version of LEMLAT 3.0 for your operating system. If you're working on a Linux machine, you can choose between the 32-bit (linux_embedded.tar.gz) and 64-bit (linux_embedded_64.tar.gz) archive.
• Extract the archive and open a console in the extracted directory.
