Published:
Install PFLOTRAN on MAC
The documentation shows the steps for Linux and is the same for MacOS. The steps have been updated for PFLOTRAN v4.0
Install fortran compiler
Go to this website to download the latest gfortran
installer for macOS. Then install gfortran
on mac.
Check to see if it is available:
which gfortran # it should print out the path to the executable
Download and install Petsc
Petsc version may change over time. Check the latest compatible version on documentation
git clone https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc.git petsc_v3.16.2
cd petsc_v3.16.2
git checkout v3.16.2
configure Petsc
- Configure (This will take ~30 min)
# must include --download-hdf5-fortran-bindings=yes
./configure --CFLAGS='-O3' --CXXFLAGS='-O3' --FFLAGS='-O3' --with-debugging=no --download-mpich=yes --download-hdf5=yes --download-hdf5-fortran-bindings=yes --download-fblaslapack=yes --download-metis=yes --download-parmetis=yes
# python2.7 ./config/configure.py --CFLAGS='-O3' --CXXFLAGS='-O3' --FFLAGS='-O3' --with-debugging=no --download-mpich=yes --download-hdf5=yes --download-fblaslapack=yes --download-metis=yes --download-parmetis=yes --download-cmake=yes
note: only python v2 is supported.
- define
PETSC_DIR
andPETSC_ARCH
. You will see prompts when the configuration is completed. Note: you can also find out thePETSC_ARCH
by looking in theconfigure.log
file and search forPETSC_ARCH
after configuration is done.
export PETSC_DIR=$PWD
export PETSC_ARCH=arch-darwin-c-release
Compile Petsc
cd $PETSC_DIR
make all
Download and compile PFLOTRAN
git clone https://bitbucket.org/pflotran/pflotran
# optionally checkout a tag version
git checkout maint/v4.0
cd pflotran/src/pflotran
# compile using multiple cores (e.g., 4 cores)
make -j4 pflotran
regression test
cd pflotran/regression_tests/default/543
export MPIRUN=/Users/shua784/Dropbox/github/petsc/arch-darwin-c-debug/bin/mpiexec
$MPIRUN -n 1 $PFLOTRAN_EXE -pflotranin 543_flow.in # use only one core for this test
Once the test model is finished (should take less than few seconds), the installation processes are done!
Update PFLOTRAN
- make sure
PETSC_DIR
andPETSC_ARCH
are in your environment
export PETSC_DIR=$PWD
export PETSC_ARCH=arch-darwin-c-release
- Pull the changes from remote repo
git pull
- Recompile PFLOTRAN
cd pflotran/src/pflotran
make -j4 pflotran
# fast recompile (this will not rebuild all dependencies, but can be useful for Sandbox testing)
make pflotran fast=1
