Installing dependencies on MacOs

MacPorts

The easiest way to install LMGC90's prerequisites is to use a package manager. The developer team uses exclusively MacPorts and cannot provide any advice if an other one is used.

To install MacPort: follow the instructions provided here

Installing

To compile:

sudo port install gcc10 python38 py38-numpy swig-python cmake +gui

Then you need to set the compiler and python as the default on your system:

sudo port select gcc mp-gcc10
sudo port select python python38

Note: here 10 stands for gcc10, any version from gcc4.5 to gcc10 should work. In the same way 38 stands for python3.8 and any version from python3.3 should work

Optional:

sudo port install hdf5 +fortran+gcc10 py38-h5py +gcc10

Optional but recommended:

sudo port install py38-scipy

To visualize:

sudo port install vtk +python38

and then download Paraview software from here

To build the documentation:

sudo port install doxygen graphviz py38-sphinx py38-numpydoc texlive-latex-extra dvipng ImageMagick

To read tutorials:

sudo port install py38-jupyter
