Installation

The following software is required to install terastructure:

• GNU Scientific Library (GSL) with support for GSL BLAS: https://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/
• POSIX Threads (pthread): https://computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/pthreads/

Currently terastructure runs smoothest on UNIX systems. See Mac installation for additional details.

You can clone the terastructure source code using the following command: git clone https://github.com/StoreyLab/terastructure.

Then, navigate to the terastructure directory and run the commands:

./configure
make
make install

By default, the binary terastructure will be installed in /usr/local/bin unless a different prefix is provided to configure. See the file INSTALL for more details.

Mac installation

We have a branch macinstall (https://github.com/StoreyLab/terastructure/tree/macinstall) where some modifications have been made that will allow terastructure to compile on Macs.

To install GSL, we recommend you use brew. It's as simple as brew install gsl. Depending on your system, you may need to specify where the GSL library was installed to at the configure step, e.g. ./configure LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" or other locations as appropriate.

gsl and gsl-devel, brew-free installation:

#gsl
wget http://gnu.mirror.vexxhost.com/gsl/gsl-latest.tar.gz
tar -zxvf gsl-latest.tar.gz
cd gsl-2.3 #change based on the latest version downloaded
./configure
make
sudo make install
#gsl-devel
git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/gsl.git
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-maintainer-mode
make
sudo make install
