`DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` can frequently break builtin macOS software when
pointed at Spack libraries. This is because it takes *higher* precedence
than the default library search paths, which are used by system software.
`DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH`, on the other hand, takes lower precedence.
At first glance, this might seem bad, because the software installed by
Spack in an environment needs to find *its* libraries, and it should not
use the defaults. However, Spack's isntallations are always `RPATH`'d,
so they do not have this problem.
`DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH` is thus useful for things built in an
environment that need to use Spack's libraries, that don't set *their*
RPATHs correctly for whatever reason. We now prefer it to
`DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` in modules and in environments because it helps a
little bit, and it is much less intrusive.
If a user invoked "spack env activate example-henv", Spack would
mistakenly interpret the "-h" from "example-henv" as the "-h" option.
This commit allows users to create and activate environments with
"-h" in the name.
This issue existed for bash shell support as well as csh support, and
this commit addresses both, along with some other unrelated csh
support issues.
* add --skip-unstable-versions option to 'spack mirror create' which skips sources/resource for packages if their version is not stable (i.e. if they are the head of a git branch rather than a fixed commit)
* '--skip-unstable-versions' should skip all VCS sources/resources, not just those which are not cachable
* Buildcache command: add install option -o/--otherarch
This will allow matching specs from other archs, for example
installing macOS buildcaches on linux hosts.
* spack commands --update-completion
It's often useful to run a module with `python -m`, e.g.:
python -m pyinstrument script.py
Running a python script this way was hard, though, as `spack python` did
not have a similar `-m` option. This PR adds a `-m` option to `spack
python` so that we can do things like this:
spack python -m pyinstrument ./test.py
This makes it easy to write a script that uses a small part of Spack and
then profile it. Previously thee easiest way to do this was to write a
custom Spack command, which is often overkill.
This commit introduces a `--no-check-signature` option for
`spack install` so that unsigned packages can be installed. It is
off by default (signatures required).
This PR adds a new command to Spack:
```console
$ spack containerize -h
usage: spack containerize [-h] [--config CONFIG]
creates recipes to build images for different container runtimes
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--config CONFIG configuration for the container recipe that will be generated
```
which takes an environment with an additional `container` section:
```yaml
spack:
specs:
- gromacs build_type=Release
- mpich
- fftw precision=float
packages:
all:
target: [broadwell]
container:
# Select the format of the recipe e.g. docker,
# singularity or anything else that is currently supported
format: docker
# Select from a valid list of images
base:
image: "ubuntu:18.04"
spack: prerelease
# Additional system packages that are needed at runtime
os_packages:
- libgomp1
```
and turns it into a `Dockerfile` or a Singularity definition file, for instance:
```Dockerfile
# Build stage with Spack pre-installed and ready to be used
FROM spack/ubuntu-bionic:prerelease as builder
# What we want to install and how we want to install it
# is specified in a manifest file (spack.yaml)

Instead of another script, this adds a simple argument to `spack
commands` that updates the completion script. Developers can now just
run:
spack commands --update-completion
This should make it simpler for developers to remember to run this
*before* the tests fail. Also, this version tab-completes.
Previously the `spack load` command was a wrapper around `module load`. This required some bootstrapping of modules to make `spack load` work properly.
With this PR, the `spack` shell function handles the environment modifications necessary to add packages to your user environment. This removes the dependence on environment modules or lmod and removes the requirement to bootstrap spack (beyond using the setup-env scripts).
Included in this PR is support for MacOS when using Apple's System Integrity Protection (SIP), which is enabled by default in modern MacOS versions. SIP clears the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` and `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` variables on process startup for executables that live in `/usr` (but not '/usr/local', `/System`, `/bin`, and `/sbin` among other system locations. Spack cannot know the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` of the calling process when executed using `/bin/sh` and `/usr/bin/python`. The `spack` shell function now manually forwards these two variables, if they are present, as `SPACK_<VAR>` and recovers those values on startup.

This PR adds a `--format=bash` option to `spack commands` to
auto-generate the Bash programmable tab completion script. It can be
extended to work for other shells.
Progress:
- [x] Fix bug in superclass initialization in `ArgparseWriter`
- [x] Refactor `ArgparseWriter` (see below)
- [x] Ensure that output of old `--format` options remains the same
- [x] Add `ArgparseCompletionWriter` and `BashCompletionWriter`
- [x] Add `--aliases` option to add command aliases
- [x] Standardize positional argument names
- [x] Tests for `spack commands --format=bash` coverage
- [x] Tests to make sure `spack-completion.bash` stays up-to-date
- [x] Tests for `spack-completion.bash` coverage
- [x] Speed up `spack-completion.bash` by caching subroutine calls
This PR also necessitates a significant refactoring of
`ArgparseWriter`. Previously, `ArgparseWriter` was mostly a single
`_write` method which handled everything from extracting the information
we care about from the parser to formatting the output. Now, `_write`
only handles recursion, while the information extraction is split into a
separate `parse` method, and the formatting is handled by `format`. This
allows subclasses to completely redefine how the format will appear
without overriding all of `_write`.

The pathadd function was using setopt to configure zsh for word
splitting, which leaks out of the function and breaks default
functionality in a number of external zsh plugins and packages. This
switches to emulate -L, just as the spack function uses, to keep the
setting local to the function.
Previously, `spack test` automatically passed all of its arguments to
`pytest -k` if no options were provided, and to `pytest` if they were.
`spack test -l` also provided a list of test filenames, but they didn't
really let you completely narrow down which tests you wanted to run.
Instead of trying to do our own weird thing, this passes `spack test`
args directly to `pytest`, and omits the implicit `-k`. This means we
can now run, e.g.:
```console
$ spack test spec_syntax.py::TestSpecSyntax::test_ambiguous
```
This wasn't possible before, because we'd pass the fully qualified name
to `pytest -k` and get an error.
Because `pytest` doesn't have the greatest ability to list tests, I've
tweaked the `-l`/`--list`, `-L`/`--list-long`, and `-N`/`--list-names`
options to `spack test` so that they help you understand the names
better. you can combine these options with `-k` or other arguments to do
pretty powerful searches.
This one makes it easy to get a list of names so you can run tests in
different orders (something I find useful for debugging `pytest` issues):
```console
$ spack test --list-names -k "spec and concretize"
cmd/env.py::test_concretize_user_specs_together
concretize.py::TestConcretize::test_conflicts_in_spec
concretize.py::TestConcretize::test_find_spec_children
concretize.py::TestConcretize::test_find_spec_none
concretize.py::TestConcretize::test_find_spec_parents
concretize.py::TestConcretize::test_find_spec_self
concretize.py::TestConcretize::test_find_spec_sibling
concretize.py::TestConcretize::test_no_matching_compiler_specs
concretize.py::TestConcretize::test_simultaneous_concretization_of_specs
spec_dag.py::TestSpecDag::test_concretize_deptypes
spec_dag.py::TestSpecDag::test_copy_concretized
```
You can combine any list option with keywords:
```console
$ spack test --list -k microarchitecture
llnl/util/cpu.py modules/lmod.py
```
```console
$ spack test --list-long -k microarchitecture
llnl/util/cpu.py::
test_generic_microarchitecture
modules/lmod.py::TestLmod::
test_only_generic_microarchitectures_in_root
```
Or just list specific files:
```console
$ spack test --list-long cmd/test.py
cmd/test.py::
test_list test_list_names_with_pytest_arg
test_list_long test_list_with_keywords
test_list_long_with_pytest_arg test_list_with_pytest_arg
test_list_names
```
Hopefully this stuff will help with debugging test issues.
- [x] make `spack test` send args directly to `pytest` instead of trying
to do fancy things.
- [x] rework `--list`, `--list-long`, and add `--list-names` to make
searching for tests easier.
- [x] make it possible to mix Spack's list args with `pytest` args
(they're just fancy parsing around `pytest --collect-only`)
- [x] add docs
- [x] add tests
- [x] update spack completion
This PR moves build smoke tests from TravisCI and migrates them to Github Actions. The result is that build tests are performed in parallel with unit tests and they don't hog additional resources on Travis. The workflow will not run if a PR only changes packages in the built-in repository, but will always run on pushes to develop or master.
* Removed build tests from Travis and passed them to Github Actions
* Store ~/.ccache in Github Actions cache
* Add filters on paths and make sure this workflow don't run
* Use paths-ignore and exclude only files in the built-in repo
* Added a badge to README.md
Before this commit we used to run the entire unit test suite
in the presence of a failure. Since we currently rely a lot
on the state of the filesystem etc. the end report was most
of the time showing spurious failures that were a consequence
of the first failing test.
This PR makes unit tests exit at the first failing test
Also, pin codecov at v4.5.4 (last one supporting Python 2.6)
* docker: add missing module to ubuntu images
* docker: fix issue with missing locale
* docker: one package per line + rm python2 support
* docker: ubuntu image also needs 'file' for buildcache creation
fixes#13073
Since #3206 was merged bootstrapping environment-modules was using the architecture of the current host or the best match supported by the default compiler. The former case is an issue since shell integration was looking for a spec targeted at the host microarchitecture.
1. Bootstrap an env modules targeted at generic architectures
2. Look for generic targets in shell integration scripts
3. Add a new entry in Travis to test shell integration
fixes#13005
This commit fixes an issue with the name of the root directory for
module file hierarchies. Since #3206 the root folder was named after
the microarchitecture used for the spec, which is too specific and
not backward compatible for lmod hierarchies. Here we compute the
root folder name using the target family instead of the target name
itself and we add target information in the 'whatis' portion of the
module file.
Dotkit is being used only at a few sites and has been deprecated on new
machines. This commit removes all the code that provide support for the
generation of dotkit module files.
A new validator named "deprecatedProperties" has been added to the
jsonschema validators. It permits to prompt a warning message or exit
with an error if a property that has been marked as deprecated is
encountered.
* Removed references to dotkit in the docs
* Removed references to dotkit in setup-env-test.sh
* Added a unit test for the 'deprecatedProperties' schema validator
fixes#12915closes#12916
Since Spack has support for specific targets it might happen that
software is built for targets that are not exactly the host because
it was either an explicit user request or the compiler being used is
too old to support the host.
Modules for different targets are written into different directories
and by default Spack was adding to MODULEPATH only the directory
corresponding to the current host. This PR modifies this behavior to
add all the directories that are **compatible** with the current host.
* Fix CD: Packages Service First
Build the packages.spack.io service images first, so they are
guaranteed to be pushed even if further images fail to build.
Fix the query to the `spack` script executed in later builds.
* CD: Remove Spack Images
Now done on Dockerhub.
- We don't currently make enough use of the maintainers field on
packages, though we could use it to assign reviews.
- add a command that allows maintainers to be queried
- can ask who is maintaining a package or packages
- can ask what packages users are maintaining
- can list all maintained or unmaintained packages
- add tests for the command
* fix docker builds/remove extra builds/add ci builds
* preinstall vim in CI builder images
* simplify & streamline docker resources
* restore os-container-mapping.yaml file
- [x] Add shell tests to ensure that `spack env activate`, `spack env
deactivate`, and `despacktivate` continue to work.
- [x] Also ensure that activate and deactivate both work with `set -u`
