2019-04-23Python package mpmath added into the templateRaul Infante-Sainz-1/+3
With this commit, we add `mpmath' Python package into the template. This package is a prerequisite of `sympy', a package to do symbolic mathematics. The motivation of adding this package is because it is a dependency of `sympy', which is more widely used into the Python science community.
2019-04-22High-level software now specified in TARGETS.mkMohammad Akhlaghi-41/+117
Until now, to specify which high-level software you want the project to contain, it was necessary to go into the `high-level.mk' Makefile that is complicated and can create bugs. With this commit, a new `reproduce/software/config/installation/TARGETS.mk' file has been created that is easily/cleanly in charge of documenting the final high-level software that must be built for the project. Also, until now, FFTW was set as a dependency of Numpy while we couldn't actually get Numpy to use it! It was just there for future reference and to justify its build rule. But now that many software won't be built and there is no problem with having rules even though a project might not use them, it has been removed.
2019-04-22SCAMP and cdsclient have been added into the projectRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+2
With this commit, we add SCAMP into the project. This program is part of the Astromatic software and the main purpose is to make the fine astrometry and the distorsion correction astronomical images. In principle, SCAMP needs ATLAS library to be able to work (that is what the documentation says). However, we had some problems with ATLAS libraries on Mac OS system, and due to that, we set the option `--enable-openblas' in the configure step. By doing that, we are be able to install SCAMP with no problems. One dependency of SCAMP is `cdsclient', it has been also added with this commit. The `cdsclient' package is a set of C and shell routines which can be built on Unix stations or PCs running Linux, which once compiled allow to query some databases located at CDS or on mirrors over the network.
2019-04-17SExtractor is now included into the projectRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+1
With this commit, we add SExtractor to be installed into the project. It is a widely used program to detect object and build catalogues from astronomical images. We had some problems when installing it because it could not link with some ATLAS libraries. But, since we have OpenBLAS installed, we can use it to override the problem with ATLAS.
2019-04-17SWarp is now into the pipelineRaul Infante-Sainz-1/+2
SWarp resamples and co-adds together FITS images using any arbitrary astrometric projection defined in the WCS standard. It is a very useful program for astronomy and that is why we added it to the pipeline. With this commit, we also cite the paper for Astrometry-net that until now was missing.
2019-04-16Astrometry-net and all its dependencies are now in the projectRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+2
With this commit, we include Astrometry-net software and one remaining dependency of it (Swig). In principle it should work as far as we tested all of this software in GNU/Linux, but we need to test also in Mac OS. As a result, this commit is just for setting all the rules and dependencies, but more tests are necessaries to ensure it works properly, specially in Mac OS systems.
2019-04-16Netpbm and its dependencies are now includedRaul Infante-Sainz-2/+5
With this commit, the installation of `netpbm' has been included. This software has a crazy dialogue installation that we override by giving to it the answers (they differs on GNU/Linux and Mac OS systems). `libxml2' also has been built (a remaining dependency of `netpbm'). In this commit, `libpng' version has been downgraded because it is required by `netpbm'. The motivation of installing `netpbm' is that it is a dependency of Astrometry-net software.
2019-04-16Cairo library and its dependency Pixman, are now includedRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+2
In this commit we add Cairo library. The motivation of including this library is because it is a dependency of Astrometry-net (which is a common software used in astronomy projects). In principle it will not be build by default by de pipeline, but we will keep the rule just in case it is needed. Pixman is another library which is a prerequisite of Cairo, it is also built with this commit.
2019-04-15New architecture to separate software-building and analysis stepsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+242
Until now, the software building and analysis steps of the pipeline were intertwined. However, these steps (of how to build a software, and how to use it) are logically completely independent. Therefore with this commit, the pipeline now has a new architecture (particularly in the `reproduce' directory) to emphasize this distinction: The `reproduce' directory now has the two `software' and `analysis' subdirectories and the respective parts of the previous architecture have been broken up between these two based on their function. There is also no more `src' directory. The `config' directory for software and analysis is now mixed with the language-specific directories. Also, some of the software versions were also updated after some checks with their webpages. This new architecture will allow much more focused work on each part of the pipeline (to install the software and to run them for an analysis).
