2019-04-14Replaced all occurances of pipeline in textMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+2
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.
2019-04-13Corrected copyright notices and info about adding copyright infoMohammad Akhlaghi-5/+1
Until now, the files where the people were meant to change didn't have a proper copyright notice (for example `Copyright (C) YOUR NAME.'). This was wrong because the license does not convey copyright ownership. So the name of the file's original author must always be included and when people modify it (and add their own copyright-able modifications). With this commit, the file's original author (and email) are added to the copyright notice and when more than one person modified a file, both names have their individual copyright notice. Based on this, the description for adding a copyright notice in `README-hacking.md' has also been modified.
2019-02-20Installed astroquery in the pipelineRaul Infante-Sainz-17/+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.
2019-02-13Astropy installed in the pipelineRaul Infante-Sainz-0/+16
Astropy was added and one very important thing is that we have to use the pypi tarball (https://pypi.org/) (which is bootstrapped) and not the github tarball.
2019-01-21Metastore package now installed to allow keeping file meta-dataMohammad Akhlaghi-9/+18
The pipeline heavily depends on file meta data (and in particular the modification dates), for example the configuration-Makefiles within the pipeline are set as prerequisites to the rules of the pipeline. However, when Git checks out a branch, it doesn't preserve the meta-data of the files unique to that branch (for example program source files or configuration-Makefiles). As a result, the rules that depend on them will be re-done. This is especially troublesome in the scenario of this reproducible paper project because we commonly need to switch between branches (for example to import recent work in the pipeline into the projects). After some searching, I think the Metastore program is the best solution. Metastore is now built as part of the pipeline and through two Git hooks, it is called by Git to store the original meta-data of files into a binary file that is version controlled (and managed by Metastore).
2019-01-20Cleaner, more managable, build of BashMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
The build of bash has been made a little cleaner to help in readability and management of the code.
2019-01-14Fixed call to sed in the standard GNU Build systemMohammad Akhlaghi-4/+5
The call to SED in `dependencies-build-rules.mk' had the file name before the options. On some verions of SED, this would cause problems. So the filename is now given after the options.
2019-01-02Copyright year updated to 2019Mohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
Since the current implementation of this pipeline officially started in 2018, all the files only had 2018 in their copyright years. This has now been corrected to 2018-2019.
2018-12-04Configure script for GNU Build system now an input argumentMohammad Akhlaghi-6/+7
Until now, we were checking the existance of the `configure' file and if it wasn't present, we would check for `config' (for OpenSSL which also has a lower-level "Configure" script that is called by the `config' script). But after two tests on Mac machines by Raul Infante Sainz and Cristina Martínez Lombilla, we found out that Mac Os's file names aren't case sensitive and thus the build wouldn't use `config', but `Configure'. Now, the exact configuration script can be specified as the 7th argument to the `gbuild' script. If it isn't given, the standard `configure' name will be used, but when it is, the given name will be used.
2018-12-03Checking Mac OS host for configuring OpenSSLMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+2
OpenSSL can't automatically detect the architecture of Mac OS systems, so as it suggests on its Wiki, it needs some help for doing that. With this commit, we are checking the build on Mac OS with the presence of `otool' (Mac OS's linker). If it's there, we'll add the OpenSSL configuration options suggested by OpenSSL's Wiki.
2018-12-03Trusted CA certificates also downloaded for Wget usageMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+1
To enable easy downloading of HTTPS links with Wget (this pipeline's defaut downloader), we need a set of trusted CA certificates. Until the time that we can generate one ourselves, one generic set of trusted CA certificates is now downloaded like a tarball and placed in the OpenSSL configuration directory. With these CA certificates, within the pipeline we can now safely use the pipeline's own installed Wget.
2018-12-03Preference for shared library linkingMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+2
Some high-level programs like Wget and cURL need to be built in shared mode because they also include dynamic loading of libraries. Therefore, if we only build the lower-level libraries in static mode, our own build will be ignored and they will go and find the system's shared libraries to link with. Because of this, for now, we have manually set the `static_build' variable in the configure script to `no'. Also, if the downloader fails, we'll delete the output (an empty file in the case of Wget) because it interefers with a target definition.
2018-12-02Wget and OpenSSL now installed as a basic dependencyMohammad Akhlaghi-5/+10
The TeX Live installer needs Wget to operate smoothly, especially on recent Mac OS systems that don't have Wget pre-installed. Also, it would be good for the pipeline to have its own downloader. So with this commit, the pipeline also installs Wget and OpenSSL which is a dependency. Many other small changes/fixes were done in this process.
2018-11-30Setting libgit2 to build statically in any caseMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+3
On the Libgit2 webpage, it has recommended to build it statically on Mac systems. By default we are doing this on Linux systems, but the `-static' flag failed on Mac. But apparently CMake might be able to deal with the issue in a different way.
2018-11-29Optional rpath link option, CMake search path set, static WCSLIBMohammad Akhlaghi-4/+3
Thanks to a test build on Raul Infante Sainz's Mac OS computer, we were able to address some issues and will be trying them after this commit: a) The LLVM linker on that computer didn't recognize `-rpath-link'! So at configure time we now check for it and only include it when the linker recognizes it. b) CMake corrections: 1) `CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH' is now defined so CMake can look in our custom directory to find the necessary libraries. 2) To build and install the CMake built programs, we now simply use `make' and `make install'. c) To avoid particular linking problems with WCSLIB (which has special problems compared to other libraries), we are now deleting the shared library version (both on GNU and Mac systems).
2018-11-29Ignoring building of GCC for pipelineMohammad Akhlaghi-3/+19
GNU Binutils (which provides the GNU Linker) is not ported to Mac OS systems. GCC also takes a very long time to build, and if we are to still have linking problems with LLVM's linker, it would be better to just ignore GCC also and use the system's C compiler and linker together. So for the time being, GCC isn't a main target of the basic dependencies and won't be installed. But we have kept the rules that were checked on a GNU/Linux operating system.
2018-11-29Using proper shell when building programs with GNU toolsMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+9
Previously the SHELL environment variable was only set in `./configure', `make', and `make install' after our internal Bash was installed. This caused problems with Lzip's configure script on older shells (tested on a Mac OS by Raul Infante Sainz). So now, before having our own Bash, we set it to a possibly existing Bash on the system and if that isn't present, just the standard `/bin/sh'.
2018-11-29GCC is now installed by the pipelineMohammad Akhlaghi-3/+4
The pipeline now installs GCC and all its necessary prerequisites.
2018-11-28Better control of shared library linkingMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+0
Until now we weren't explicity writing the full path of the dynamic libraries necessary for linking a program. But now with `-Wl,-rpath=$(ildir)' we ensure that the linker keeps the address of the dynamic libraries necessary for linking at linking time, not running time. Also, `pkg-config' is also built when preparing the basics. Several other minor corrections were made thanks to the great help of Raúl Infante Sainz.
2018-11-26High-level dependencies build without system's PATHMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+2
The high-level dependencies are now built without having access to the system's PATH. To do this, all the necessary software that we aren't building ourselves are now brought into the installed `bin/' directory using a symbolic link to the corresponding software on the host. To do this, it was also necessary to increase the number of basic/low-level packages that we are building, and add several more (Diffutils and Findutils). With this process in place, we now have a list of the exact software packages that we are not building our selves, enabling easy building of all such dependencies in the future.
2018-11-19Removed GNU Binutils, CMake's built with its own bootstrapMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+2
When the C compiler is not GNU GCC, linking with GNU Binutils is going to cause problems. So until the time that we can include GCC into this pipeline, its best to avoid Binutils also. Also, for building CMake, we were relying on an installed CMake, but now, we are using its own `./bootstrap' script, so it can be built even if the host system doesn't have CMake. Also, for TeX Live, we are now setting a custom file as main target to avoid complications with symbolic links as targets in Make. Finally, when the user says they don't want to re-write an existing configuration file, no extra notices will be printed and the configure script will immediately start building programs.
2018-11-17TeX Live also built within the pipeline (no extra packages yet)Mohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
TeX Live is now also downloaded and built by the reproduction pipeline. Currently on the basic (TeX and LaTeX) source is built but no extra packages, so the PDF building will fail. We'll add them in the next commit.
2018-11-16Minor correction in shell's if statementMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+2
If the Makefile `$(static_build)' variable in '/reproduce/src/make/dependencies-build-rules.mk' isn't defined (by mistake), it will default to blank space, then the Shell will complain about a bad formatted operator (needing two operands). So an `x' was added before it and before `yes' which will allow us to safely pass such cases without a terrible crash.
2018-11-16Configure script checks if static libraries will be builtMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+4
The default Mac compiler has problems building static libraries. Since we are not yet building the GNU C Compiler as part of the pipeline, we'll have to rely on the host system's compiler. Therefore, a check is now added a the start of the configure script that will build a minimal program with the `-static' flag and if it fails, it will print a warning. Afterwards, none of the dependencies will be built with the `-static' flag.
2018-11-15Binutils and other compressors also included in pipelineMohammad Akhlaghi-20/+21
To have better control over the build, GNU Binutils, Bzip2, GNU Gzip, and XZ Utils have also been added to the pipeline. Some other minor cleanups and fixes were also implemented throughout the process.
2018-11-15Static linking flag added to LDFLAGS, using special Bash scriptMohammad Akhlaghi-21/+19
Until now, when a package was to be built statically, we were adding the `--static' option to `CFLAGS'. This was the wrong place to put it! It should be in the linking step (thus `LDFLAGS'). Also, based on Bash's configure script, we are now using the more generic form of `-static' (single dash, not double dash). On the other hand, the `--disable-shared' option isn't available in many of the packages and it is highly redundant with the `-static' option, so it has been removed to avoid an extra warning in such packages.
2018-11-14Lzip and Tar also built as basic dependenciesMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
To ensure the easy unpacking and building of the programs, Lzip and Tar are now also build during the initial setup phase. Some minor corrections were also applied to make things cleaner and smoother.
2018-11-14Configuration stops if a dependency cannot be builtMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+80
Until now, we used semicolons in Make's Call function definitions to build the programs with GNU build system or CMake. Therefore, if any step of the process failed, the rest would be ignorant to it and pass. Now, we use `&&' to separate the different processing steps. In this way, we can be sure that if any of them fails (during configuration, or building for example), the pipeline will also stop and not continue to the next command (in the same recipe). Since the two Make Call functions were identical in the two `dependencies-basic.mk' and `dependencies.mk', they are now in one file to be imported in both. This bug was found by Raul Infante Sainz.
