2019-04-27Modified netpbm installation answers for Mac OS systemsRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until now, we installed `netpbm' by setting the default paths to libraries and headers. That worked fine for GNU/Linux systems, however, in Mac OS systems we have to explicity say to `netpbm' questions what are the paths to the libraries and headers. We found this problem because we tried to run `solve-field' to obtain the astrometry of some images, and then it goes to use `pnmfile', a program that failed because it was not properly linked with `libnetpmb'. With this commit, we fix this problem by answering properly the questions in the configure step of `netpbm' and setting explicity where we want to place the libraries and headers. With this commit, we also update `netpbm' version. To do that, we have to download the last version, for which it doesn't exist a tarball. So, we built this tarball and put it in the Mohammad's webpage.
2019-04-27Lack of semicolons in Binutils installation rule for Mac OS fixedRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until this commit, in Mac OS we were installing `binutils' as symbolic links of various programs (`as', `ar', `ld', `nm',` ps' and `ranlib'). However, there was a missing semicolon at the end of each line. As a consecuence, the installation of `binutils' on Mac OS systems failed. With this commit, we fix this problem by typing a semicolon at the end of each makelink line.
2019-04-25Added --enable-single option in FFTW installationRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until this commit, FFTW was installed by default, without the single precission option. However, when installing `sextractor' in a new system we found an error in the installation complaining about not having single precission files of FFTW. More explicity the error was: "FFTW single precision library files not found in [...]". With this commit, we fix this problem by passing the option `--enable-single' in the installation of FFTW.
2019-04-24Added paper citation of sip_tpv Python packageRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until now, we were not citing the paper of `sip_tpv' package. With this commit, we have been fix this issue.
2019-04-24Removed sip_tpv from TARGETS, now it is an optional packageRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
With this commit, we let the Python package `sip_tpv' to be optional in order to not install it by default. It is a very specific package and I forgot to remove it from `TARGETS.mk' in the previous commit.
2019-04-23Python package sip_tpv added into the templateRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
With this commit, we add `sip_tpv' Python package into the template. This is a small package to convert SIP distorsion coefficients into PV distorsion coefficients, and the other way around. This package is useful in a astronomical context, specially when `swarp' is going to be used in order to resample images. The reason is that `swarp' only can understand PV distorsion coefficients.
2019-04-23Python package SymPy added into the templateRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
With this commit, we add `sympy' Python package into the template. This is a package to do symbolic mathematics. The motivation is that it is a prerequisite of `sip_tpv' Python package, which is useful to convert SIP distorsion coefficients into PV coefficients (in the context of astronomical images). However, the availability of `sympy' in the template will be useful for anyone interested in this package.
2019-04-23Python package mpmath added into the templateRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
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.
2019-04-23Awk, coreutils and sed are now prerequisites of metastoreRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until now, `metastore' did not depend on the necessaries programs that we use to install it (`awk', `coreutils' and `sed'). They are not official dependencies of `metastore', but we need them to install it. With this commit, we put these programs as prerequisites of `metastore' in order to be able to install it without any problem.
2019-04-15Minor typo corrections in README-hacking.mdMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
In two places, I had mistakenly put a <'> instead of a <`>, causing bad highlighting in the markdown rendering. They have been corrected. Also, one long line in was broken up into several.
2019-04-15New architecture to separate software-building and analysis stepsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
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).
2019-04-14Replaced all occurances of pipeline in textMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
All occurances of "pipeline" have been chanaged to "project" or "template" withint the text (comments, READMEs, and comments) of the template. The main template branch is now also named `template'. This was all because `pipeline' is too generic and couldn't be distinguished from the base, and customized project.
2019-04-14Corrected copyright information for .file-metadataMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Since `.file-metadata' is a binary file, we can't include a copyright inside of it so we have to use `README.md' to mention its copyright and license notice. However, this was not done clearly and is now corrected.
2019-04-14Added citation for FFTWMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until now we weren't including the citation for FFTW (one of the template's optional packages). With this commit, it is added.
2019-04-12Dependency BibTeX entries included only when necessaryMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until now, there was a single `tex/src/references.tex' file that housed the BibTex entries for everything (software and non-software). Since we have started to include the BibTeX entry for more software, it will be hard to manage the large (sometime unused) BibTeX entries of the software in the middle of the non-software related citations in the text of the paper. Therefore, with this commit, a `tex/dependencies' directory has been made which has a separate BibTeX entry file for each software that needs one. After the software is built, this file is copied to the new `.local/version-info/cite' directory. At the end, the configure script will concatenate all the files in this directory into one file which will later be used with `tex/src/references.tex' by BibLaTeX. This greatly simplifies managing of citations. Allowing us to focus on the software-building and paper-writing citations separately/cleanly (and thus be more efficient in both).
2019-04-12File is built as a dependency of GCCRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until now, we did not have `file'. It was in other project, where a problem with `Astrometry-net' software, ends up with the necessity of having `file' into the pipeline. With this commit, we add `file' to the project. Since it is a low level program, it is set in `dependencies-basic.mk' as a prerequisite of GCC.
2019-04-12Fixed some Scipy-related packages citationsRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until now, the Scipy citation was only one paper and not the correct one (it was the online manual). With this commit, Scipy is properly cited using the two papers. Also some modifications in the `tex/src/references.tex' have been done (remove last page number).
2019-04-12Acknowledged Scipy-related packages: Cython, Matplotlib, Numpy and ScipyRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until now, name and version of all Python packages were indicated in the final paper, but not the main paper of them (if it exists). With this commit, some Python packages (Cython, Matplotlib, Numpy and Scipy) are now properly acknoledged by citating the source paper. `mpi4py' is also cited although this package is not yet included into the pipeline.
2019-04-11Unzip set as prerequisite of Numpy and SetuptoolsRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Since we mixed the installation of Python packages with all other software, it may occur that some Python packages start to be installed before having installed `unzip'. As a consecuence, they could not be decompressed and the installation will fail. In particular, tarballs of Numpy and Setuptools are .zip files. With this commit, we fix this issue by setting `unzip' as a prerequisit of Numpy and Setuptools.
2019-04-10Using bin executable in patchelf for awk and bashRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until this commit, we were using the target (version number of the program) in the `patchelf' for `awk' and `bash'. This makes an incorrect linking in libraries because the target is not the bin program but just a plain text containing the version number of the program. With this commit we fix this issue by setting in the patchelf of `awk' and `bash' the bin executable, and not the target (version number).
2019-04-08Using Clang on Mac OS systems for pkg-configMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Yahya Sefidbakht reported the following error when building Pkg-config on his Mac OS system (using GCC, not Clang). It is apparently because his version of GCC doesn't support some speical feature on Mac that is necessary to build Glib as part of Pkg-config. With this commit, on Mac systems, for pkg-config we are explicity asking to build with Clang (through the `CC' flag).
2019-04-07Configure script using our build programs in final stepsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
In order to get a consistent final result, in its later steps, the configure script uses our own build of the basic command-line tools (like `cat', `awk'). Also, a correction was made to the short option parsing errors when an unwanted argument is given, and the `-?*' was changed to `-'?'*' to avoid un-necessary shell interpretation (for example giving unreasonable results).
2019-04-07GNU M4 now built as a dependency of GNU LibtoolMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
On some systems, M4 isn't available, so the linking to the host system fails, as a result, we can't build GNU Libtool. The main reason we weren't building M4 was a bug with the most recent GNU C library (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2019-04/msg00004.html). But I found a patch used by Arch Linux which fixes the issue and allows M4 to be built. As a result, the pipeline is now building M4 also and the patched M4 tarball is now uploaded to my own webpage as backup. While doing the steps above, I also noticed that we weren't using a tab at the start of the link definitions of `dependencies-basic.mk'. Although its not necessary, to be consistent, its good for the lines to always start with a tab.
2019-04-07Corrections in configure script and astroquery, astropy rulesMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
The step where we check the possibility of using `sys/cdefs.h' was still using `$$' for shell variables (in Make), not `$' (for the shell). This was corrected. Also, since Astropy needs two citations, the `,' in the citation command would conflict with Make's parsing. So we just used an `echo' command to re-write the version info. In Astroquery, the prerequisite list was just reordered by length to be more clear to the eye.
2019-04-07Using gnuastro name for Gnuastro's target, not astnoisechiselMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until recently we were using an actual installed executable file for the programs. So for Gnuastro, the target was called `astnoisechisel'. But recently, this approach was changed and the target for each software is a simple text file with the official software name and version. So with this commit, we are simply using `gnuastro' for Gnuastro, not `astnoisechisel'.
2019-04-05Imported work on adding Cython and Python's pkgconfig moduleMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
This work is now merged, I just added the new argument to the `pybuild' function.
2019-04-05Software acknowledgement section is automatically generatedMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until now, management of the software names and versions in the paper was done manually (a macro had to be defined in `initialize.mk', then used in `paper.tex', so they had to be manually set in two places). Managing this was not easy. To fix this, with this commit, each software building rule's target is a text file that contains its human-readable name and its version. In the end, the configure script sorts them by their name and writes them into a LaTeX input file that we can easily import as a file into the main paper.
2019-04-05Python cython and pkgconfig packages added for h5pyRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
After trying to set the pipeline from scratch with no internet conection (but all tarballs already downladed), `h5py' Python package complained about not having access to download `pkgconfig'. After solving this dependency, it also complained about not having `cython'. With this commit, we add `pkgconfig' (Python) and `cython' to the pipeline in order to be able to install `h5py' properly.
2019-04-04Dependency version LaTeX macros written at the end of configureMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until now, these versions were written in each run. This was mainly inherited from the old days of the pipeline, where we didn't know the software on the host. But now that we have almost everything under control, we can just write these LaTeX macros at the end of the configure script and make `initialize.mk' simpler and also (very slightly!) speed-up/simplify the processing.
2019-04-04Better option-reading in configure, using .build to access BDIRMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until now, the steps to manage the command-line options of the configure script were limited (couldn't accept an equal sign or space between the option name and value). With this commit, it can now also accept optional equal signs between the option name and value. Thus not causing many confusions. Also, it is more logically consistent for the link to the build-directory to be placed in the top directory (as a hidden file like `.local' until now), and not as a visible directory like `reproduce/build' (which we used until now). Therefore, with this commit, the link to easily access the build-directory is `.build' in the top source directory. Finally, because `minmapsize' is too specific to Gnuastro and has now been given its default value at the start of the configure script, the description for `minmapsize' has been removed (to not confuse users who don't use Gnuastro). If anyone is familiar enough with Gnuastro to change it, they already know it from its book.
2019-04-02.gitignore with copyright using better search for copyright noticeMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
In the previous commit, a copyright notice was added after a systematic search of the version controlled files. However, we missed `.gitignore' (because we were discarding those with the `*.git*' pattern to avoid files in the `.git' directory). This has been fixed by using this command (in the top project directory) instead: for f in $(find ./ -type f); do \ if [[ $f != ./.git/* ]]; then \ n=$(grep -i copyright $f | wc -l); \ echo "$n $f"; \ fi; \ done | awk '$1==0'
2019-04-02Copyright notice added to remaining filesMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
After doing a systematic search for files without a copyright notice, a few more were found that didn't have a notice. So a notice was added for them. I used this Bash command to find the files: for f in $(find ./ -type f); do \ if [[ $f != *.git* ]]; then \ n=$(grep -i copyright $f | wc -l); \ echo "$n $f"; \ fi; \ done | awk '$1==0'
2019-03-29Added copyright information in dependency-versions.mkMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
To help make it easier to re-use (like the rest of the "large" files).
2019-03-29Added Copyright to all TeX and README filesMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
In order to be more clear, a copyright statement was added to all the LaTeX and README files.
2019-03-28Configure script now has optionsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
With the options, it is now possible to run the configure script more easily after the initial run. The `--help' option provides a nice and complete introduction along with a listing of the input options and the `-j' option can be use to manually set the number of threads.
2019-03-28flock is now built in configure, to allow serial downloadsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until now, we were using `flock' (file-lock) for downloading the input datasets in series. But we couldn't do this when downloading the software tarballs because `flock' wasn't yet available. Generally, unlike processing, downloading is much better done in series than in parallel. To enable serial downloads of the software also, with this commit we are installing `flock' in the configure script (not in a Makefile). As a result, besides `flock', we can also benefit from the other good features of the `reproduce/src/bash/download-multi-try' script *(for example attempting download again after some time). Some GNU mirrors may have problems at the time of download, so with this commit, we are using the main GNU FTP server for GNU programs.
2019-03-19Minor corrections: typo and adding file to .gitignoreMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
The LaTeX macro for libgit2 was not properly used in `paper.tex'. On Mac systems, after browsing the directory, a `.DS_Store' file was created. So to keep things clean on those systems, it is added to the files to be ignored by Git.
2019-03-18Reseting path in script to make symbolic links to system programsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until recently, there was no problem with the `makelink' script of `dependencies-basic.mk' because it was called on separate recipe lines (and thus separate shells). But recently we added a call to it within a single shell (for GCC on Mac OS systems). So a previous call to it would effect the next call. To fix this, in this commit, we are re-setting PATH to its original value after each call finishes.
2019-03-18No Bzip2 shared libraries on macOS systemsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Bzip2 has a special/separate Makefile to build shared libraries which didn't work on a macOS. So with this commit, we are allowing Bzip2 shared libraries only on macOS systems. Also, I noticed that macOS's `sed' doesn't have the `-i' option (to do the change in place within the same file). So we are using `-e' to write the changed Makefile in a temporary directory, then rename that.
2019-03-11Not checking software versions in initialize.mkMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until now, we were actually running all the programs to check their versions during initialization. But now that the number of programs has increased, this can be slow. With this commit, we simply report the version as a constant string. Maybe later, we can follow the strategy of the TeX Live packages and write them all at configure time.
2019-03-11for-group gives write permission to all built software in the endMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Since the `install' script also sets permissions manually, the permissions that we define in `for-group' don't usually affect the installed files. Therefore the installed files of one user can't be modified/deleted by another. With this commit, after for-group finishes configuration, it also adds the write flag for all group members in the whole installation directory.
2019-03-08For-group script can allow to arguments to Make callMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
Until now the `./for-group' script would only add one argument to the Make call, but in some situations, you need a second argument is well. With this option, any possible fourth argument to `./for-group' is passed to Make.
2019-03-08Using system's GCC on MacMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
We still have a few problems with building GCC on a MacOS system. To allow using the pipeline on this operating system, until we find the solution, GCC is only built on non-Mac systems. On Mac, we'll just make a symbolic link to the host's executables.
2019-03-07Several new Python packages added for full buildMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
To ensure that we have all the necessary Python dependencies, I done an offline build and noticed that several packages were also necessary for the `./configure' step to finish (`libffi', `asn1crypto', `cffi', `jeepney', `pycparser' and `secretstorage'). With this commit they are added.
2019-03-06Imported work on many basic Python modulesMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
With the help of Raul, we were able to build many higher-level Python packages to enable the installation of packages like Matplotlib and Astroquery. With this commit, that work is being merged into the master branch.
2019-03-06Astroquery, astropy, matplotlib and numpy are now in the pipelineRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
Until this commit, we had some of the python packages intalled but they did not work properly because of the `PYTHONPATH' variables. That is, the pipeline's `python' was the `python' of the system instead of the pipeline's `python'. With this commit this issue has been fixed by setting the correct `PYTHONPATH'. In this commit we also modify the installation of `bzip2' because `CMake' was complaining about some libraries built statically.
2019-03-01Elaboration in README-hacking.mk's future improvements sectionMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
This section was a little outdated and since then, a more clear/exact image of using the Nix experience for the reproducible paper template has been added.
2019-02-23GCC build rule doesn't depend on BinutilsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+0
In an attempt to test the GCC build rule (without Binutils, because its too architecture dependent), all the necessary dependencies were moved to GCC (from `ld'). Also `fortran' was also added to the languages supported by GCC. This rule built GCC 8.2.0 nicely on my GNU/Linux system. But `gcc' is still not a final target to built, so the rule is being ignored for now.
2019-02-21Matplotlib is now in the pipelineRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
As matplotlib is a general package for plotting and it is widely used in science, we have added it to the pipeline. When installing a dependency of matplotlib `python-dateutil', we found a conflict in the download of the tarball. This is because the name has a dash (-) in the middle. In addition, the name starts with 'python', so it is the same as the python itself. Now it is possible to install any package with any name, just adding an elif in before the URL direction.
2019-02-20Installed astroquery in the pipelineRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+0
All dependencies for building astroquery package have been done. Until nowthe Python dependencies were built in the same Makefile as the high level libraries and programs. But, because astroquery has many dependencies we split the Python and Python packages installation in a new Makefile. The installation of differents packages are done using Python and not pip, because we found some problems when doing it with pip. Apparently there are some interferences between the packages installed by the pip of the system and the pip installed as part of Python in the pipeline.
