AsterStudy + Salome 9.13...

mjb

Dear Colleagues,
how to integrate AsterStudy from singularity file (salome_meca-lgpl-2023.1.0-4-20240327) with Salome 9.13 platform.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,

Hi, I am also interested!
What I have found out is that you can "mount" the .sif file, with the following command:
$ singularity build --sandbox sandbox/ salome_meca-lgpl-2023.1.0-4-20240327-scibian-10.sif
It creates a folder called 'sandbox' and you can browse inside, like a file system:

Then, you can find the salome_meca files in folder 'opt/salome_meca/'. And I haven't gone further...
I don't know how to extract the files from the .sif container, or which files. If you google a bit and go deeper, please post it, two brains think more than one 😉

1) Mount the container and get into it's shell
singularity run salome_meca-lgpl*****.sif shell
2) From salome shell copy ASTERSTUDY_202310 to somewhere in the host. For example
cp -r /opt/salome_meca/2023.1.0_scibian_univ/modules/ASTERSTUDY_202310/ ~/Downloads
3) Now in the host mv ASTERSTUDY_202310 to salome install dir. ($SALOME_ROOT_DIR is the top directory where you install salome and INSTALL is a subdirectory where the components are.
mv ~/Downloads/ASTERSTUDY_202310 $SALOME_ROOT_DIR/INSTALL/ASTERSTUDY
4) Register ASTERSTUDY as a module in salome launch script, say, $SALOME_ROOT_DIR/salome
context.setVariable(r"SALOME_MODULES", r"SHAPER,SHAPERSTUDY,GEOM,SMESH,ASTERSTUDY,PARAVIS,YACS,JOBMANAGER", overwrite=True) ........ ........ #[YDEFX] ........ ........ #[ASTER_STUDY] context.setVariable(r"ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR", r"/home/wing/Apps/salome/INSTALL/ASTERSTUDY", overwrite=True) context.setVariable(r"ASTERSTUDY_SRC_DIR", r"/home/wing/Apps/salome/SOURCES/ASTERSTUDY", overwrite=True) context.addToPath(r"${ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR}/bin") context.addToPath(r"${ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR}/bin/salome") context.addToLdLibraryPath(r"${ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR}/lib/salome") context.addToPythonPath(r"${ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR}/bin/salome") context.addToPythonPath(r"${ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR}/lib/salome") context.addToPythonPath(r"${ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR}/${PYTHON_LIBDIR}") context.addToPythonPath(r"${ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR}/${PYTHON_LIBDIR}/salome") context.addToPythonPath(r"${ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR}/${PYTHON_LIBDIR}/asterstudy") context.appendVariable(r"SalomeAppConfig", r"${ASTERSTUDY_ROOT_DIR}/share/salome/resources/asterstudy", separator=":")

Hi linctus,

I have tried what you said, but it outputs:

context.setVariable(r"SALOME_MODULES", r"SHAPER,SHAPERSTUDY,GEOM,SMESH,ASTERSTUDY,PARAVIS,YACS,JOBMANAGER", overwrite=True)
IndentationError: unexpected unindent

Additionally, I noted that folder "$SALOME_ROOT_DIR/SOURCES/ASTERSTUDY" doesn't exist in the container, so the variable ASTERSTUDY_SRC_DIR is not set. Does it have any importance?

Thanks.

Python syntax is indentation sensitive. Take a look at the script and you will be familiar with that soon. For the line which raised the error message in your case the simplest way is to edit the original line with adding ASTERSTUDY to it while keeping anything else unchanged. I am using SALOME 9.12 and that line is line number 97. I changed it from

context.setVariable(r"SALOME_MODULES", r"SHAPER,SHAPERSTUDY,GEOM,SMESH,PARAVIS,YACS,JOBMANAGER", overwrite=True)

context.setVariable(r"SALOME_MODULES", r"SHAPER,SHAPERSTUDY,GEOM,SMESH,ASTERSTUDY,PARAVIS,YACS,JOBMANAGER", overwrite=True)

When it comes to #[ASTER_STUDY] section I put it just after #[YDEFX] section. Taking a look at #[YDEFX] section (or any other sections) you will be familiar with how to keep the right indentation soon.
ASTERSTUDY_SRC_DIR doesn't matter and you can delete it from the code.
