# plasp—Translate PDDL to ASP
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/potassco/plasp.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/potassco/plasp)
`plasp` 3 is in early development and not intended for productive use yet.
As of now, `plasp` 3 experimentally supports the full [SAS Format](http://www.fast-downward.org/TranslatorOutputFormat) (as of version 3) used by [Fast Downward](http://www.fast-downward.org/).
Please get in touch with [Patrick Lühne](https://www.luehne.de) if you have any suggestions.
## Usage
To translate an SAS file into ASP facts, call:
```bash
$ plasp file.sas
```
For instance, the translated SAS instance can be solved incrementally with `clingo` and the meta encoding `meta-sequential-incremental.lp` as follows:
$ plasp file.sas > file.lp
$ clingo encodings/meta-sequential-incremental.lp file.lp
## Building
`plasp` requires a C++14 compiler (preferrably ≥ GCC 6.1), the `boost` libraries (≥ 1.55), and CMake for building.
$ git clone https://github.com/potassco/plasp.git
$ cd plasp
$ mkdir -p build/release
$ cd build/release
$ cmake ../.. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
$ make
The built `plasp` binary is then located at `plasp/build/release/bin/plasp`.
