Failure to install on mac

[srkaeppler]

The documentation has gotten a lot better on installation. I decided to attempt to install on mac using brew and venv. I realize this is not supported, but I have wanted to stay away from conda because I heard that it is hard to remove from your computer, although I may go that route. I was able to get completions of:
make -j=8 and make pygimli J=8
However, when I test the code by loading the code, I get the following error:

I am not sure what the issue is.

Dear @srkaeppler,

not sure why the test target fails, but the installation generally seems to have worked.

Can you check if the following works

cd /Users/srkaeppler/research/data/pygimli/source/
python -c "import pygimli; print(pygimli.__version__)"

If yes, you probably just need to add the path to your .bashrc.

Best wishes
Florian

I also very much appreciate the help. I have debated whether to just use conda and bite the bullet. Brady got me onto this code and I have a particular nonlinear regularization problem I am wondering if this code could help with, so I am especially interested in the regularization notebooks, etc.

After some recent changes on the build toolchain its good to remove the CMakeCache.txt in the build path or even try a new clean build.

You could also give the wheel branch a try. Its on the same state like the dev branch plus a test for a build-chain for whl generation using venv. Note, this branch is not yet tested for mac and there might be some minor tweeks necessary.

In the new branch are new make targets which should produce valid whl files for local pip installation.

make whlpgcore

make whlpygimli

Both create there respective whl files and test them against a local test venv. The final whl's you can find in build/wheelhouse. If there is something wrong maybe the cmake output give some hints.

@carsten-forty2 @florian-wagner
Thanks for the response. I see two potential actions here and let me outline the proposed procedure.

One:

1. Reclone pygimli?
2. rebuild following the procedure outlined above.
   I am not really sure this will work unless some sort of flag has been changed in the Cmake files. This is something I am not familiar with writing. Put another way, I could basically do this right now and I have tried this by deleting the build folder and unless some other files have changed (I could git pull), I don't see why I would get a different outcome

Two:

1. Reclone gimli
2. git checkout wheel to get onto the wheel branch.
3. make -j=8
4. make whlpgcore
5. make whlpygimli
6. make pygimli J=8
   Is this the procedure?

One last thing, how do I build or make pgcore maybe that is what is screwing up...

@carsten-forty2 @florian-wagner
The other issue I am still concerned about is that the .so file above has some missing tags. I am not sure if this is something you need to set as a compiler option or some sort of .bashrc environment variable. I am setting some of this stuff in .zshrc since I am using a mac with a M3 chip. I have not extensively worked with openblas or any of those packages, so any help there would be appreciated.

Thank you both for helping me! Once we get this working, I am happy to post this to you in some form and you could potentially add it to your website.
