Installation#

First install miniforge following the instructions given here https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/install/index.html

User installation#

ratp may by installed simply on a conda environments:

mamba create -n ratp -c conda-forge -c openalea3 openalea.ratp
mamba activate ratp

That creates a conda environment called ratp, install in it openalea.ratp with all the dependencies and activate the environment. Then just open an Ipython session and enjoy.

If you want notebook support, run for example:

mamba install jupyterlab

Developpers installation (python and fortran modifications)#

Editable installation with conda/environment.yml is not functioning because of namespace conflict. A workaround is as follows: 1) download the repository and change to the root directory:

git clone https://github.com/openalea/PyRATP.git
cd PyRATP

  1. Create a conda environment with dependencies manually:

Using MAC and Linux:

mamba create -n pyratp_dev -c conda-forge -c openalea3 openalea.plantgl openalea.mtg qtpy compilers meson-python scipy pytest jupyter

Using Windows:

mamba create -n pyratp_dev -c conda-forge -c openalea3 openalea.plantgl openalea.mtg qtpy m2w64-toolchain meson-python scipy pytest gfortran jupyter

  1. activate the environment: mamba activate pyratp_dev

  2. Compile everything:

pip install ."[test]"

and after each modification of the python or Fortran part, run

pip install .

then restart your kernel (when using IPython) for your modifications to be taken into account.
