An alternative to the standard modulecmd, using C++, with no TCL. It ties in together a "module load" type system from modulecmd, with flavours. What does this mean for you?
Upon doing a "module avail", you may be presented with 100s of modules, but with a flavours system, it will only show relevant modules to ones you have already loaded, reducing 100s to a clear few of the specific modules you require.
This is tested for ubuntu-latest and macos-latest.
We needed flavours to work, but it was buggy and written in TCL and Perl. It didn't seem too complicated to do so why not?
CTest requires you to have the Google Test framework installed. If you haven't already, run to install it for:
Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libgtest-devRHEL/Rocky:
sudo dnf -y update
sudo dnf -y install cmake gtest-develMACOS:
brew update
brew install cmake
brew install googletestNavigate into the project root directory, and run:
mkdir build
cd build && cmake ..
cmake --build . --config release
# Verify installation
ctestThe final executable will be:
${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/build/src/smoduleTo install it into /usr/local/bin, you can run (optionally):
cd ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/build
sudo cmake --install .
