Rough and ready guide as a reminder to myself how I built ogs6-cli and ogs6-gui on Ubuntu 20.04 These are rough notes from memory representing a beginner’s strategy to finding a linux-friendly ogs6.
OS: Ubuntu 20.04 OGS gitlab repo: Tag v6.4.0
STRATEGY
This strategy means all the -deps are available for OGS-CLI and OGS-GUI As a beginner, building OGS-GUI requires more consideration, so it is best to have OGS-CLI up and running first. The compilation of OGS-GUI is relatively quick if it is built inside existing OGS-CLI build
Install a decent build system (gcc etc) see www.opengeosys.org/docs/devguide/getting-started/prerequisites/ Install python 3 (e.g. python 3.8 or python 3.9) if you are using Python 3.9, build python3 package CoolProps - inside the CoolProps script dir: setup.py (up to now, pip3 install coolprops doesn’t work; tespy won’t install without it) Then install tespy: pip3 install tespy
STEP-1: build OGS CLI with PYTHON=ON in dir ~/build/release Leave CMakeList.txt unchanged i.e. OGS_BUILD_GUI=OFF git clone the tag release that you want
e.g. repo tag v6.4.0: git clone https://gitlab.opengeosys.org/ogs/ogs.git Files · 6.4.0 · ogs / ogs · GitLab
git clone https://gitlab.opengeosys.org/ogs/ogs.git (rename the source directory to ogs) cd ogs mkdir -p …/build/release cd /build/release cmake …/…/ogs -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ninja -j 2
IMPT!! When CLI build OK, make a backup copy of the entire ogs source and build folders (e.g. ogs_640_CLI)
Comments:
Configure & Generate: cmake …/…/ogs -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release Build using ninja: ninja -j 2
If successful with configuring and generating, you will have this output in the terminal:
– The following features have been enabled:
OGS, The OGS simulator (OGS_BUILD_CLI) Utilities, Command line tools (OGS_BUILD_UTILS) Python-interface, Python boundary conditions and source terms (OGS_USE_PYTHON) Tests, Unit and benchmarks tests (OGS_BUILD_TESTING) build-unity, Unity build (OGS_USE_UNITY_BUILDS) – Configuring done – Generating done – Build files have been written to: ~/ogs_640/build/release
If successful with the build, there will be no errors.

STEP-2: build OGS-GUI in same dir for OGS-CLI: ~/build/release These are the steps to build Data Explorer using the same ~/build/release folder as the OGS CLI version in STEP-1 IMPT!! When CLI build OK, make a backup copy of the entire ogs source and build folders (e.g. ogs_640_CLI)
For OGS-GUI v6.4.0:
(a) You need to install Qt v5.14.2 using aqtinstall, because in CMake-Gui, you will need to locate cmake Qt libraries in the Qt 5.14.2 dir to build Data Explorer. pip3 install aqtinstall mkdir /opt/qt cd /opt/qt aqt install-qt 5.14.2 linux desktop gcc_64 -m xmlpatterns,x11extras You will probably have to change the last line (i.e. delete xmlpatterns,x11extras) if you get a syntax error. Note that ‘aqt install’ is deprecated.
(b) You need to build VTK v8.2 so that you can have several libraries e.g. vtkGuiSupportQt etc. Use CMake-Gui for this and make sure vtkGuiSupprtQt is ticked! Otherwise these libraries wont be built!
In the ~/build/release dir in STEP-1, keep the original flags ON and set flag to build Data Explorer to on: OGS_BUILD_GUI ON and OGS_BUILD_CVODE ON Open a terminal and open the CMake-Gui program cmake-gui Check source and build dirs Check Generator is ninja Press ‘Configure’
Now it is all red and you need to provide paths to Qt5 libraries Set Qt dir to the Qt 5.14.2 cmake sub-directories Set VTK dir to the compiled vtk-8.2 root folder, because this is where CMake will find the vtkGuiSupportQt libraries.
Check other flags are set (e.g. BUILD_GUI) Press Configure (still red? fix errors) Press Configure (nothing red? OK) Press Generate
Close Cmake-Gui
In terminal: ninja -j 2
When build completed successfully, in same terminal: ./DataExplorer When you first start Data Explorer, it will complain it is missing vtk libraries Each time it starts, it will stop and in the termial the error states which library is missing. You will find these in the vtk-8.2 folder. Copy and paste them into the ~build/release/lib folder (there will be several). Then ./DataExplorer will start
Read the Data Explorer manual. Visit PyVista and PVGeo on Github Look at the PVGeo repo for its winning geothermal entry (2nd place) on Utah FORGE Competition.
Trying this out now, things I had to do, Ubuntu style
stackoverflow.com user3871995 Ninja not found by CMake cmake, ninja asked by user3871995 on 11:45AM - 29 Jul 16 UTC sudo apt-get install ninja-build
there was also a git version check error, so had to comment out in scripts/cmake/GitSetup.cmake where it was checking the version
also looks like the certificate problem bites too
