Momentum provides foundational algorithms for human kinematic motion and numerical optimization solvers to apply human motion in various applications.
This page guides you through the process of building Momentum and running the examples.
Momentum binary builds are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux via Pixi or the Conda package manager.
pixi add momentum
conda install conda-forge::momentum
micromamba install -c conda-forge momentum
Complete the following steps only once:
-
Install Pixi by following the instructions on https://prefix.dev/
-
Clone the repository and navigate to the root directory:
git clone https://github.com/facebookincubator/momentum cd momentumEnsure that all subsequent commands are executed in the project's root directory unless specified otherwise.
-
Build the project with the following command (note that the first run may take a few minutes as it installs all dependencies):
pixi run build -
Run the tests with:
pixi run test
To view all available command lines, run pixi task list.
To run the hello_world example:
pixi run hello_world
Alternatively, you can directly run the executable:
# Linux and macOS
./build/hello_world
# Windows
./build/Release/hello_world.exe
To run other examples:
pixi run glb_viewer --help
For more examples, please refer to the Examples page.
If you need to start over for any reason:
pixi run clean
Momentum uses the build/ directory for CMake builds, .pixi/ for the Pixi virtual environment, and .deps/ for building dependencies. You can clean up everything by either manually removing these directories or by running the command above.
The full documentation for Momentum can be found on our [website][https://facebookincubator.github.io/momentum] and the C++ API documentation is available [here][https://facebookincubator.github.io/momentum/doxygen/index.html].
