This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.
sciunit is a command-line tool that answers the call for a reusable research object that containerizes and stores applications simply and efficiently, facilitates sharing and collaboration, and eases the task of executing, understanding, and building on shared work.
Installing
This section introduces the binary distributions of sciunit.
Requires: pip>=8.1.1, glibc>=2.17, python2.7 with headers and compiler
Platform: amd64-pc-linux-gnu
Ensure that ~/.local/bin is in your PATH environment variable, and then, run
pip2 install --user sciunit2
Add --upgrade to the command line arguments to upgrade an existing sciunit installation.
[ Note Attempt to install sciunit with “pip install sciunit” will get you something else; our PyPI project is registered as “sciunit2”. –end note ]
Verify the installation with
sciunit --version
In the following per-distro instructions, if you see a command-line in the form of
export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH
, it merely means that you will need the aforementioned binary path in PATH before proceeding; normally you should adjust it according to your login shell and write it to a shell configuration such as ~/.profile.
Ubuntu 16.04
sudo apt update sudo apt install python-dev python-pip pip2 install --user sciunit2
Ubuntu 14.04
sudo apt update sudo apt install python-dev python-pip pip2 install --user -U pip export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH pip2 install --user sciunit2
Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S python2-pip export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH pip2 install --user sciunit2
Fedora 26
sudo dnf install python2-pip python2-devel gcc redhat-rpm-config pip2 install --user sciunit2
CentOS 7
sudo yum install -y epel-release sudo yum install python2-pip python-devel gcc pip2 install --user sciunit2
RHEL 7
sudo yum install -y https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm sudo yum install python2-pip python-devel gcc pip2 install --user sciunit2
Debian 9
sudo apt update sudo apt install python-dev python-pip export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH pip2 install --user sciunit2
Debian 8
sudo apt update sudo apt install python-dev python-pip pip2 install --user -U pip export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH pip2 install --user sciunit2
OpenSUSE 42
Note that OpenSUSE defaults user-binary path to ~/bin rather than ~/.local/bin, so you may want to symlink one to the other.
sudo zypper install python-pip python-devel gcc pip2 install --user -U pip export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH pip2 install --user sciunit2
Build from Source
Instructions for custom build of sciunit2 is available in our Bitbucket project repository. You may want to check it out if you are running on a system that is not supported by the binary distribution.
Post-install
Execute
sciunit post-install
as a normal user to add command-line completion support for sciunit to your login shell. When running this or any other sciunit command, if your environment is not listed in the Installing section, or you missed some prerequisites before issuing pip, you may observe the following error:
ImportError: No module named _bsddb
Fortunately, there are more than one ways to fulfill this dependency. Try to find and install a package often named “python-bsddb” or “python-bsddb3” with your system package manager. In Anaconda, you will need a port called “bsddb.”
To make the command-line completion work, if you are a bash users, make sure that you have the “bash-completion” package installed on your system. If you are a tcsh user, make sure that you have source ~/.complete in ~/.cshrc or ~/.tcshrc as suggested by the stock completion script.
Using
Checkout our tutorial and manpage. The manpage is available as
man sciunit
after a successful installation.
