Installation of RAVEN libraries

RAVEN libraries can be installed using two alternative methods:

• apt-get (Ubuntu) or dnf (Fedora)

sudo apt-get install libtool git python-dev swig g++ \
python3-dev python-numpy python-sklearn python-h5py

dnf install swig libtool gcc-c++ redhat-rpm-config python-devel \
  python3-devel numpy h5py scipy python-scikit-learn \
  python-matplotlib-qt4

• Miniconda (you can install Miniconda from https://conda.io/miniconda.html)

conda create --name raven_libraries -y numpy=1.11.0 \
h5py=2.6.0 scipy=0.17.1 scikit-learn=0.17.1 \
matplotlib=1.5.1 python=2.7 hdf5 swig pylint lxml

Optionally, if you want to be able to edit and rebuild the manual, you can install TEX Live and its related packages:

[~/projects]> sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base \
texlive-extra-utils texlive-latex-extra texlive-math-extra

Clone RAVEN

Open a terminal window and cd into the folder where you want to install RAVEN (e.g., projects)

[~]> mkdir projects
[~]> cd projects
[~/projects]> git clone https://github.com/idaholab/raven.git
[~/projects]> cd raven
[~/projects/raven]> git submodule init moose
[~/projects/raven]> git submodule update moose

Clone RAVEN Plugins

In case you have access to any RAVEN plugins' repository (e.g. CashFlow), you can clone that repository to be functional with RAVEN (as submodule).

[~]> cd projects/raven
[~/projects/raven]> git submodule update --init **pluginName**

The result of the command is as follows:

Submodule 'pluginName' (https://github.com/idaholab/pluginName.git) registered for path 'pluginName'
Cloning into '/home/USER/projects/test/raven/plugins/pluginName'...
Submodule path 'pluginName': checked out '786576deef33a317e654558f39f5f45617c7442b'

Compiling RAVEN

[~/projects/raven]> make -j2 

Test RAVEN installation

[~/projects/raven]> ./run_tests -j2

A large number of tests are run in order to check that the installation step has been successful. At the end, a screen output is generated similar to the one below:

383 passed, 19 skipped, 0 pending, 0 failed

Update RAVEN

[~/projects]> cd raven
[~/projects/raven]> git pull
[~/projects/raven]> make -j2
[~/projects/raven]> ./run_tests -j2
