lsawade / SPECFEMMODULES

Installs or uses installed modules for the compilation of specfem.

SFMODULES

The goal of this set of scripts is to streamline the installation of dependencies of specfem. Once installation is done, all that needs to be done is

module load core-<suffix> hdf5-<suffix> adios2-<suffix>

to load environment variables relevant for the compilation of specfem.

Installing the modules required for specfem3D_globe

1. Edit main.cfg to define which packages to install, and what system you are on, e.g. frontier.
2. Edit configs/system.cfg mainly to define where you want the module and package files to be installed.
3. Edit configs/system.cfg compilers etc. only if you know what you are doing.
4. Make sure you update the MODULEPATH, this one you will have to define yourself in, e.g., your .bashrc file. Make sure it is the same as the MODULE_PATH in you want to load.

After setting the MODULE_PATH in the startup file, you can run install.sh, and it will setup the module files first load necessary, download the packages, and install the packages

Note on installing h5py afterwards.

If you want to install hdf5, you have to install openssl on Frontier manually.

conda install conda-forge::libssh

for some reason the local /usr/lib64/libssh.so is missing a symbol

TODO

When using installed hdf5 and/or adios have the option to give root dir. For the root dir following patter should do:

ADIOS_ROOT=/path/to/adios HDF5_ROOT=/path/to/hdf5

Then the setup.py will set the necessary variables.
