    Running Basilisk on DelftBlue

    I am currently running simulation on DelftBlue. If you have assess to DelftBlue, the following instructions may be helpful.

    Install Basilisk and other packages

    load modules and PATH in .bashrc

    module load 2022r2
module load openmpi/4.1.1

module unload ffmpeg/4.3.2
module load bison/3.8.2
module load gnuplot/5.4.2
module load valgrind/3.17.0

export BASILISK=/home/netid/basilisk/src
export PATH=$PATH:/home/netid/basilisk/src
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/netid/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

export PATH=$PATH:/home/netid/local/bin

    Basilisk

    wget http://basilisk.fr/basilisk/basilisk.tar.gz
tar xzf basilisk.tar.gz

    OpenGL & OSMesa (for view.h)

    The instuction here works, but you need to set the PATH, which is already in your bashrc

    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/netid/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

    change the config file

    OPENGLIBS = -L/home/netid/local/lib -lfb_osmesa -lGLU -lOSMesa

    change the fb_osmesa.c in basilisk/src/gl/

    #include </home/netid/local/include/GL/osmesa.h>

    in basilisk/src/gl/

    make libglutils.a libfb_osmesa.a

    Then you will be able to compile

    ffmpeg on DelftBlue

    ffmpeg version on DelftBlue is not ideal (lack of libx264). We install it in our home directory.

    First nasm:

    cd ~/ffmpeg_sources && \
wget https://www.nasm.us/pub/nasm/releasebuilds/2.15.05/nasm-2.15.05.tar.bz2 && \
tar xjvf nasm-2.15.05.tar.bz2 && \
cd nasm-2.15.05 && \
./autogen.sh && \
PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --bindir="$HOME/bin" && \
make && \
make install

    Then libx264:

    cd ~/ffmpeg_sources && \
git -C x264 pull 2> /dev/null || git clone --depth 1 https://code.videolan.org/videolan/x264.git && \
cd x264 && \
PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib/pkgconfig" ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --bindir="$HOME/bin" --enable-static --enable-pic && \
PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" make && \
make install

    Then ffmpeg:

    cd ~/ffmpeg_sources && wget -O ffmpeg-snapshot.tar.bz2 https://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-snapshot.tar.bz2 && tar xjvf ffmpeg-snapshot.tar.bz2 && cd ffmpeg && PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib/pkgconfig" ./configure   --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build"   --pkg-config-flags="--static"   --extra-cflags="-I$HOME/ffmpeg_build/include"   --extra-ldflags="-L$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib"   --extra-libs="-lpthread -lm"   --ld="g++"   --bindir="$HOME/bin"   --enable-gpl  --enable-libx264  && PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" make && make install && hash -r

    Imagemagick

    download the package

    tar xvzf ImageMagick.tar.gz
cd ImageMagick-7.1.0-51
./configure --prefix=/home/[netid]/local
make 
make install

    After that, add the PATH, which is already in .bashrc

    export PATH=$PATH:/home/netid/local/bin

    Run a jobscript on DelftBlue

    If you are using OPENMP, the following jobscript should work

    #!/bin/sh
#
#SBATCH --job-name="jobname"
#SBATCH --partition=compute
#SBATCH --time=24:00:00
#SBATCH --nodes=1
#SBATCH --ntasks-per-node=1
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=48
#SBATCH --mem-per-cpu=1G
#SBATCH --account=research-<faculty>-<department>

module load 2022r2
module load bison/3.8.2

module load gnuplot/5.4.2
module load openmpi/4.1.1
module load valgrind/3.17.0

export OMP_NUM_THREADS=$SLURM_CPUS_PER_TASK

srun ./a.out
