Build Status

Usage

The script can be called with the following syntax:

ilcsoft-install install.cfg [ -p, -i ]

options description:

  • -p to preview installation environment
  • -i to install the software

If called without options a summary of the installation is displayed. Examples of configuration files can be found under releases.

Usage Examples:

Install the full ilc software tools + external dependencies on your local disk

  • note that mysql and java and installations are not supported in ilcinstall

  • this packages need to be installed on your system. Please change the paths to this packages in

  • the file releases/v01-17-07/release-versions.py

  • for debian/ubuntu distributions you may need to install a few packages beforehand such as:

  • apt-get install build-essential cmake subversion libmysqlclient-dev freeglut3-dev zlib1g-dev libqt4-dev cernlib-core-dev

  • default-jdk libxpm-dev libxmu-dev lesstif2-dev doxygen latex2html

Step 1: install the external packages (geant4, root, GSL,....)

you can skip this step, if you want to use external tools from afs or cvmfs - see below

NB: you have to use a compiler that is compatible w/ c++11 for SL6 you can use gcc4.8 provided by CERN SFT see comment in release-versions.py on how to set this up

ilcsoft_install_prefix = "/scratch/ilcsoft/"

note: no version suffix is added to this path here as the external tools are rather independent of the ilcsoft version

possibly edit releases/v01-17-07/release-base.cfg and comment out any unneeded packages:

  • e.g. those that are already installed on your system no need to comment out packages that are already installed in the correct place, ilcinstall will simply use them

run:

./ilcsoft-install releases/v01-17-07/release-base.cfg [-p]

check the output carefully w.r.t. to paths used, then install:

./ilcsoft-install releases/v01-17-07/release-base.cfg -i

Step 2: install the actual ilcsoft release

  • no need to edit releases/v01-17-07/release-versions.py

  • assuming you have set ilcsoft_install_prefix already in Step 1

  • Note: the release version will be automatically appended to the install path !

  • if you have skipped Step 0 and want to use the external tools installed in afs or cvmfs:

  • set the ilcPath accordingly (see below for pathes), e.g:

ilcPath = '/afs/desy.de/project/ilcsoft/sw/x86_64_gcc44_sl6

or

ilcPath = '/cvmfs/ilc.desy.de/sw/x86_64_gcc48_sl6

can be set to any other directory that contains all the needed external tools

  • possibly edit releases/v01-17-07/release-ilcsoft.cfg and comment out any unneeded packages. Run:
./ilcsoft-install releases/v01-17-07/release-ilcsoft.cfg [-p]

check the output carefully w.r.t. to pathes used, then install:

./ilcsoft-install releases/v01-17-07/release-ilcsoft.cfg -i
