Rework Spack's continuous integration workflow to be environment-based.
- Add the `spack ci` command, which replaces the many scripts in `bin/`
- `spack ci` decouples the CI workflow from the spack instance:
- CI is defined in a spack environment
- environment is in its own (single) git repository, separate from Spack
- spack instance used to run the pipeline is up to the user
- A new `gitlab-ci` section in environments allows users to configure how
specs in the environment should be mapped to runners
- Compilers can be bootstrapped in the new pipeline workflow
- Add extensive documentation on pipelines (see `pipelines.rst` for further details)
- Add extensive tests for pipeline code
* docs: add a spack environment for building the docs
* docs: remove tutorial and link to spack-tutorial.readthedocs.io
The tutorial now has its own standalone website, versioned by instances
of the tutorial. Link to that instead of versioning it directly with Spack.
#8612 added command extensions to Spack: a command implemented in a
separate directory. This improves the implementation by allowing
the command to import additional utility code stored within the
established directory structure for commands.
This also:
* Adds tests for command extensions
* Documents command extensions (including the expected directory
layout)
- add CombinatorialSpecSet in spack.util.spec_set module.
- class is iterable and encaspulated YAML parsing and validation.
- Adjust YAML format to be more generic
- YAML spec-set format now has a `matrix` section, which can contain
multiple lists of specs, generated different ways. Including:
- specs: a raw list of specs.
- packages: a list of package names and versions
- compilers: a list of compiler names and versions
- All of the elements of `matrix` are dimensions for the build matrix;
we take the cartesian product of these lists of specs to generate a
build matrix. This means we can add things like [^mpich, ^openmpi]
to get builds with different MPI versions. It also means we can
multiply the build matrix out with lots of different parameters.
- Add a schema format for spec-sets
- remove the old LGPL license headers from all files in Spack
- add SPDX headers to all files
- core and most packages are (Apache-2.0 OR MIT)
- a very small number of remaining packages are LGPL-2.1-only
Spack provides a number of classes based on commonly-used build systems
that users can extend when writing packages; the classes provide functionality
to perform the actions relevant to the build system (e.g. running "configure" for
an Autotools-based package). This adds documentation for classes supporting the
following build systems:
* Makefile
* Autotools
* CMake
* QMake
* SCons
* Waf
This includes build systems for managing extensions of the following packages:
* Perl
* Python
* R
* Octave
This also adds documentation on implementing packages that use a custom build
system (e.g. Perl/CMake).
Spack also provides extendable classes which aggregate functionality for related
sets of packages, e.g. those using CUDA. Documentation is added for
CudaPackage.
Adds the "buildcache" command to spack. The buildcache command is
used to create gpg signatures for archives of installed spack
packages; the signatures and archives are placed together in a
directory that can be added to a spack mirror. A user can retrieve
the archives from a mirror and verify their integrity using the
buildcache command. It is often the case that the user's Spack
instance is located in a different path compared to the Spack
instance used to generate the package archive and signature, so
this includes logic to relocate the RPATHs generated by Spack.

- @citibeth moved `spack module loads` after `spack load`
- @glennpj tried to clarify installation table + changes to language
- @tgamblin Removed top level section and moved the whole thing into the reference manual
* module file support: moved directive before spack module loads
* Transferred pending changes from efischer/develop
* 1. Rewrite of "Getting Started": everything you need to set up Spack, even on old/ornery systems. This is not a reference manual section; items covered here are covered more systematically elsewhere in the manual. Some sections were moved here from elsewhere.
2. Beginning to write three methods of application developer support. Two methods were moved from elsewhere.
* Edits...
* Moved sections in preparation for additional text to be added from old efischer/docs branch.
* Moved 2 more sections.
* Avoid accid
* Applied proofreading edits from @adamjstewart
* Fixed non-standard section characters.
* Moved section on profiling to the developer's guide.
* Still working on Spack workflows...
* Finished draft of packaging_guide.rst
* Renamed sample projects.
* Updates to docstrings
* Added documentation to resolve#638 (content taken from #846)
* Added section on resolving inconsistent run dependencies. Addresses #645
* Showed how to build Python extensions only compatible with certain versions of Python.
* Added examples of getting the right behavior from depends_on(). See #1035
* Added section on Intel compilers and their GCC masquerading feature. Addresses #638, #1687.
* Fixed formatting
* Added fixes to filesystem views. Added a caveats section to ``spack setup``.
* Updated section on Intel compiler configuration because compiler flags currently do not work (see #1687)
* Defined trusted downloads, and updated text based on them. (See #1696)
* Added workflow to deal with buggy upstream software. See #1683
* Added proper separation between Spack Docs vs. Reference Manual
* Renamed spack_workflows to workflows. Resolves a conflict with the .gitignore file.
* Removed repeated section.
* Created new "Vendor Specific Compiler Configuration" section and organized existing Intel section into it. Added new PGI and NAG sections; but they need to be expanded / rewritten based on the existing text plus research through Spack issues on GitHub.
* Fixed text on `spack load --dependencies` to conform to reality. See #1662
