* add OctavePackage
1. remove import CudaPackage which is not needed anymore
2. mention CudaPackage and OctavePackage in packaging guide
3. adjust OctavePackageTemplate
4. add clue file for Octave build
5. sanity check on self.prefix
* use setup_environment
* Only specify a file as needing relocation if it contains the spack
root as a text string (this constraint also applies to binaries)
* Don't fail if there is an error retrieving RPATH information from a
binary (even if it is specified as requiring relocation)
This adds the ability for packages to apply compiler flags in one of
three ways: by injecting them into the compiler wrapper calls (the
default in this PR and previously the only automated choice);
exporting environment variable definitions for variables with
corresponding names (e.g. CPPFLAGS=...); providing them as arguments
to the build system (e.g. configure).
When applying compiler flags using build system arguments, a package
must implement the 'flags_to_build_system_args" function. This is
provided for CMake and autotools packages, so for packages which
subclass those build systems, they need only update their flag
handler method specify which compiler flags should be specified as
arguments to the build system.
Convenience methods are provided to specify that all flags be applied
in one of the 3 available ways, so a custom implementation is only
required if more than one method of applying compiler flags is
needed.
This also removes redundant build system definitions from tutorial
examples
Fixes#5940
This PR changes the option '--restage' of 'spack install' to
'--dont-restage', inverting its meaning and the default behavior
of the command.
Fixes#6200
For compilers that successfully run a version detection script but
don't actually return a version, Spack was keeping track of the
empty version and then failing when attempting to construct a
compiler spec. This skips any attempt to add a compiler entry when
no version is reported (but logs when a compiler fails to report
a version).
* Support pruning of vars with Env from_sourcing_file (issue #6501)
- Blacklist string literals or regular expressions of environment
variables that are to be removed from consideration as being affect
by the sourcing of the file. Conversely, whitelist modifications
that should not ignored. Whitelisted variables have priority over
blacklisting.
Eg,
EnvironmentModifications.from_sourcing_file
(
bashrc
blacklist=['JUNK_ENV', 'OPTIONAL_.*'],
whitelist=['OPTIONAL_REQUIRED.*']
)
This modification can be used to eliminate environment variables that
are not generalized for modules (eg, user-specific variables).
* BUG: module prepend-path in wrong order (fixes#6501)
* STYLE: module variables in sorted order (issue #6501)
- looks nicer and also helps when comparing the contents of different
module files.
* ENH: remove duplicates from env paths when creating modules (issue #6501)
- this makes for a cleaner module environment and helps avoid some
unnecessary changes to the environment that are only provoked by
redundancies in the PATH.
eg,
before PATH=/usr/bin
after PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/my/application/bin
should only result in /my/application/bin being added to the PATH
and not /usr/bin:/my/application/bin
Activate via the 'clean' flag (default: False):
EnvironmentModifications.from_sourcing_file(bashrc, clean=True,..
Fixes#2440
The "Getting started" guide should be short and sweet. This commit
simplifies the "Environment-Modules" section pruning:
- outdated / wrong suggestions as noted in #2440
- uncommon setups that are better treated in a reference guide
According to the documentation here:
http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/ext/autodoc.html
"For module data members and class attributes, documentation can either
be put into a comment with special formatting (using a #: to start the
comment instead of just #), or in a docstring after the definition."
* Updated function which checks if a binary file needs relocation.
Previously this was incorrectly identifying ELF binaries as symbolic
links (so they were being excluded from relocation). Added test to
check that ELF binaries are not considered symlinks.
* relocate_text was not replacing paths in text files. Added test to
check that text files are relocated properly (i.e. paths in the file
are converted to the new prefix).
* Exclude backup files created by filter_file when installing from
binary cache.
* Update write_buildinfo_file method signature to distinguish between
the spec prefix and the working directory for the binary cache
package.
"spack spec" was providing helpful error information about conflicts
that was missing from "spack install", this updates "spack install"
to provide the same information.
The original docstring had confusing wording re: what is going to
symlinked and where when using the `extend` directive, and how exactly
the symlinking is performed (not automatically on install, but using
`spack activate`). See #5559.
Showing "Normalize" on output doesn't give users additional information,
as this step is essentially an implementation detail of concretization.
This PR skips it and shows just the input spec and the concretized one.
Printing partial hashes for input spec has been disabled.
* First draft for SC17 build systems portion
Added tutorial_buildsystems.rst file as well as example files under
the tutorial/ directory.
* Remove floating `
* Add requested changes, and examples of subclasses
Added in the requested changes to the documentation. Also added in
information about the subclasses and the defaults that they provide.
Also fixed some phrasing issues, formatting and punctuation.
* Flake8 fixes and new files for classes
Made flake8 fixes to pass tests and also added files to demonstrate code
in the classes.
* Minor edits
Edits in formatting and made some sentence changes
* Flake8 fixes
More flake8 fixes
* Flake8 fix
* Change section order on tutorial and minor edits
Placed the section at the appropriate section for the tutorial and then
added some minor edits that were requested.
* Add requested changes and more details
Added more details to Cmake, Makefile and Python Packages.
* Fixed formatting and minor edits
* Fix doc build error
* Allow types and 'any' in variant definitions.
- Previously variant values had to be a tuple or a callable predicate.
- This allows 'any' as shorthand for `lambda x: True` and type objects
as shorthand for "any value of this type".
- Makes variant definitions more readable, keeps lambdas out of
packages for common cases.
* Update packaging tutorial
* Fix bad file reference in packaging tutorial
* First draft of the advanced packaging tutorial
* advanced packaging tutorial: improved phrasing
Thanks Denis and Hartzell!
* Fixed typos + reworded a couple of sentences
* Reworked module file tutorial section
First draft for the SC17 update. This includes:
- adding an introduction on module files + Spack's module
generation blueprints
- adding a set-up section and provide a docker image for easy set-up
- updating all the relevant snippets
- extending a bit some of the concepts that were already touched
* Added reference to #5582 + committed Dockerfiles
Also fixed a couple of typos spotted by Denis.
* module file tutorial: added section on template customization
* module file tutorial: fixed minor typos + rephrased a sentence
* module file tutorial: made explicit that Docker image comes with software
* module file tutorial: improved phrasing and layout.
Thanks Hartzell!
* module file tutorial: added vim and nano to editors
* module file tutorial: fixed typo
* Fixed typos
Thanks Adam!
* module file tutorial: updated Dockerfile + minor changes in introduction
