How to install

Downloading

To download GALES type one of the following in your shell:

git clone git@gitlab.com:dgmaths9/gales.git

or:

git clone https://gitlab.com/dgmaths9/gales.git

or download the code directly as a tar/zip file.

Installation

If you’ve downloaded the code from a tar/zip file, then unpack the code into a desired directory say /home/user/project/gales. GALES is just a collection of header files so after downloading the code all you need is to install only the third party dependencies. To do that go into the tpl folder of the code and follow the instructions given in README.md.

Testing

After installing the dependencies and sourcing the environment file generated inside the tpl directory, you can test the installation by running the following command in your shell from /home/user/project/gales:

./test_gales_installation.sh	

The script performs the two tests:

  1. it builds the mesh preprocessing utils for GALES. In addition it also builds the solwcad software.
  2. for a sim, it generates mesh, build the executable and run it in parallel on 2 cores using mpi.

If everything is fine, you will see at the end
