Python-fortran-tool

This set of tools is primarily designed to be applied on the PHYEX repository. But they are normally generic enough to be used in other contexts.

The tools can be used with the command line (the pyfortool.py and pyfortool_parallel.py utilities) or as a python package. The documentation is in the doc directory and some examples are in the examples directory.

Prerequisites:

• python > 3.8 (but only tested with version 3.10)

Other prerequisites are linked to the pyfxtran installation:

• a C compiler (tested with cc 11.4.0)
• make and git to compile fxtran (on the first use only)

There are two installation methods, depending on your use. On some systems, you may need to create a python virtual environment to use these methods.

Method 1 (suitable for developpers and end users):

• open a terminal on a system satisfying the prerequisites and enter the following commands
• if you don't have a github ssh key or don't know what it is:

  git clone https://github.com/UMR-CNRM/pyfortool.git

• if you have a github ssh key:

  git clone git@github.com:UMR-CNRM/pyfortool.git

• cd pyfortool; pip install -e .

Method 2 (suitable for users who do not develop PyForTool):

• open a terminal on a system satisfying the prerequisites and enter the following commands
• pip install pyfortool
