Install Synergia with Spack¶

Synergia has preliminary support for installing via Spack

Before attempting the Spack installation, make sure you have either Environment Modules or
Lmod installed.
(If both are available, choose Lmod -- it is an update to Environment Modules.

• On Ubuntu:
  

  sudo apt install lmod
  

• On Scientific Linux, Redhat Linux or Centos:
  

  sudo yum install environment-modules
  

To install Synergia from scratch, do the following:

git clone ssh://p-synergia2@cdcvs.fnal.gov/cvs/projects/synergia2
cd synergia2
git checkout devel
./docs/devel/spack/spack-bootstrap
. spack-setup.sh
spack diy synergia2@dev
# wait a long time for a lot of stuff to be installed
. spack-setup.sh # you have to do this again due to a spack bug
spack load -r synergia2
cd spack-build
make test
