Distribution and packaging of SageMath

Here are some links and information about distributing Sage.

Source and pre-compiled binaries

The release manager releases the source for each development release and each public release. Binaries for a number of operating systems are prepared by the release manager, and sometimes by more people.

Containers

Binder

Docker images

Official SageMath Docker images

Computational topology Sage Docker image

CoCalc Docker images

Official CoCalc Docker image:

Other CoCalc Docker images might ship SageMath too:

Virtualbox

Live USB

Sage Debian Live

AIMS Desktop

Package managers

This section is about SageMath packages in package managers, which can be related to particular Linux distributions, or macOS-specific (like Homebrew), or distribution-agnostic, or even OS-agnostic.

Arch-linux

Conda / Anaconda / Miniconda / Conda Forge

  • wiki page: Conda

  • people: isuruf, saraedum

Debian

Fedora package

Gentoo: Sage-on-Gentoo

Homebrew

SageMath can now be installed on macOS via Homebrew by running

brew cask install sage

This fetches the dmg for the app, and installs the app from that dmg. See this post on sage-devel.

Nix

  • Nix package manager: https://nixos.org/nix/

  • Sage package: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tree/master/pkgs/applications/science/math/sage

  • Distribution-agnostic, functional, declarative package managing.
  • Should always have 0 doctest failures. To achieve that, some dependency versions are pinned. That is not an issue because Nix allows multiple versions of a package to be installed at the same time. However the goal is to minimize the amount of pinned dependencies.

  • Should work on most Linux distributions. More precisely any Linux distro where the Nix package manager is available, e.g. ArchLinux, Debian, others -- definitely works on NixOS.

  • Tested on x86 Linux. Probably works on ARM but that is as of yet untested.
  • Could run on Darwin, but currently doesn't since some dependencies don't have Darwin-specific patches. If you're a Darwin user, help with that would be very much appreciated. This is work in progress.

  • Might even work with the "Windows Subsystem for Linux", but probably needs some patches. Absolutely untested.
  • Allows user-installs, given that the nix package manager is already installed.
  • To install: nix-env -iA nixpkgs.sage or on NixOS just add sage to your environment.systemPackages

  • Betas are usually packaged in a PR until the release is final.

  • Currently (2018-07-26) maintained by timokau. Any help is appreciated. If you are interested (even if you don't know anything about nix yet), open an issue pinging @timokau and I'll help you get started.

RPM package (Fedora, Mandriva)

Ubuntu

Other

Please edit this wiki or email slelievre if you know about other package managers providing SageMath... See wikipedia's list of package managers.

Windows

SageMath installer for Windows

Porting to Cygwin

Windows subsystem for Linux

  • Under Windows 10, one can run the "Windows Subsystem for Linux" to "run Linux under Windows", and install SageMath binaries for Linux.

Discussion

Porting to exotic architectures

BSD

Solaris

AIX, HP-UX

Using SageMath through other software

Other software, such as Cantor and TeXmacs, have interfaces to SageMath.

On tablets and mobile phones, Juno provides a good interface to CoCalc.

See Interfaces to Sage in other software.
