GitHub CI Bors enabled project chat

This is a complete port of mathlib to Lean 4. Development of mathlib now takes place in this repository.

Mathlib is a user maintained library for the Lean theorem prover. It contains both programming infrastructure and mathematics, as well as tactics that use the former and allow to develop the latter.

Installation

You can find detailed instructions to install Lean, mathlib, and supporting tools on our website.

Experimenting

Documentation

Besides the installation guides above and Lean's general documentation, the documentation of mathlib consists of:

Much of the discussion surrounding mathlib occurs in a Zulip chat room, and you are welcome to join, or read along without signing up. Questions from users at all levels of expertise are welcome! We also provide an archive of the public discussions, which is useful for quick reference.

Transitioning from Lean 3

For users familiar with Lean 3 who want to get up to speed in Lean 4 and migrate their existing Lean 3 code we have:

Contributing

The complete documentation for contributing to mathlib is located on the community guide contribute to mathlib

The process is different from other projects where one should not fork the repository. Instead write permission for non-master branches should be requested on Zulip by introducing yourself, providing your GitHub handle and what contribution you are planning on doing.

  • To obtain precompiled olean files, run lake exe cache get. (Skipping this step means the next step will be very slow.)

  • To build mathlib4 run lake build.

  • To build and run all tests, run make.

  • You can use lake build Mathlib.Import.Path to build a particular file, e.g. lake build Mathlib.Algebra.Group.Defs.

  • If you added a new file, run the following command to update Mathlib.lean

    find Mathlib -name "*.lean" | env LC_ALL=C sort | sed 's/\.lean//;s,/,.,g;s/^/import /' > Mathlib.lean

Guidelines

Mathlib has the following guidelines and conventions that must be followed

Downloading cached build files

You can run lake exe cache get to download cached build files that are computed by mathlib4's automated workflow. If tar terminates with an error, it means that you might have ended up with corrupted files. In this case, run lake exe cache get! to overwrite them (get won't try to download the same file again).

Call lake exe cache to see its help menu.

Building HTML documentation

Building HTML documentation locally is straightforward, but it may take a while:

lake -Kdoc=on build Mathlib:docs

The HTML files can then be found in build/doc.

Dependencies

If you are a mathlib contributor and want to update dependencies, use lake update -Kdoc=on. This will update the lake-manifest.json file correctly. You will need to make a PR after committing the changes to this file.
