- Linux distribution
- Nvidia GPU card with CUDA toolkit >= 10.0 (Older versions could be available on request)
COMPASS binaries, which contain the optimized GPU code, can be installed via Anaconda. Then, you have to install Anaconda 3 or Miniconda 3 (python 3 is required).
We recommend Miniconda instead of Anaconda as it is much lighter, but it's up to you.
export CONDA_ROOT=$HOME/miniconda3
wget https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -b -p $CONDA_ROOT
Don't forget to add your Miniconda or Anaconda directory to your PATH:
export PATH=$CONDA_ROOT/bin:$PATH
Once Miniconda is installed, installing the COMPASS binaries is easy :
conda install -c compass compass -y
Note: conda main channel is compiled with CUDA 10.2, for previous version please use:
conda install -c compass/label/cuda101 compass -y
conda install -c compass/label/cuda100 compass -y
This command line will also install dependencies in your conda environment.
Finally, you can get the Shesha package of COMPASS. This python package is the user level of COMPASS. It also contains all the initialization functions.
git clone https://github.com/ANR-COMPASS/shesha.git
You will need to set some environment variables:
export SHESHA_ROOT=$HOME/shesha
export PYTHONPATH=$SHESHA_ROOT:$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1
Once the installation is complete, verify that everything is working fine :
cd $SHESHA_ROOT/tests
./checkCompass.sh
This test will basically launch fast simulation test cases and it will print if those cases have been correctly initialised.
You are ready ! You can try it with one of our paramaters file:
cd $SHESHA_ROOT
ipython -i shesha/scripts/closed_loop.py data/par/par4bench/scao_sh_16x16_8pix.py
And if you want to launch the GUI:
cd $SHESHA_ROOT
ipython -i shesha/widgets/widget_ao.py
