Currently, the custom config scopes are pushed at the top when constructing
configuration, and are demoted whenever a context manager activating an
environment is used - see #48414 for details. Workflows that rely on the order
in the [docs](https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration.html#custom-scopes)
are thus fragile, and may break
This PR allows to assign priorities to scopes, and ensures that scopes of lower priorities
are always "below" scopes of higher priorities. When scopes have the same priority,
what matters is the insertion order.
Modifications:
- [x] Add a mapping that iterates over keys according to priorities set when
adding the key/value pair
- [x] Use that mapping to allow assigning priorities to configuration scopes
- [x] Assign different priorities for different kind of scopes, to fix a bug, and
add a regression test
- [x] Simplify `Configuration` constructor
- [x] Remove `Configuration.pop_scope`

Set command line scopes last in _main, so they are higher scopes
Restore the global configuration in a spawned process by inspecting
the result of ctx.get_start_method()
Add the ability to pass a mp.context to PackageInstallContext.
Add shell-tests to check overriding the configuration:
- Using both -c and -C from command line
- With and without an environment active
This PR implements the concept of "default environment", which doesn't have to be
created explicitly. The aim is to lower the barrier for adopting environments.
To (create and) activate the default environment, run
```
$ spack env activate
```
This mimics the behavior of
```
$ cd
```
which brings you to your home directory.
This is not a breaking change, since `spack env activate` without arguments
currently errors. It is similar to the already existing `spack env activate --temp`
command which always creates an env in a temporary directory, the difference
is that the default environment is a managed / named environment named `default`.
The name `default` is not a reserved name, it's just that `spack env activate`
creates it for you if you don't have it already.
With this change, you can get started with environments faster:
```
$ spack env activate [--prompt]
$ spack install --add x y z
```
instead of
```
$ spack env create default
==> Created environment 'default in /Users/harmenstoppels/spack/var/spack/environments/default
==> You can activate this environment with:
==> spack env activate default
$ spack env activate [--prompt] default
$ spack install --add x y z
```
Notice that Spack supports switching (but not stacking) environments, so the
parallel with `cd` is pretty clear:
```
$ spack env activate named_env
$ spack env status
==> In environment named_env
$ spack env activate
$ spack env status
==> In environment default
```
This adds a `SetupContext` class which is responsible for setting
package.py module globals, and computing the changes to environment
variables for the build, test or run context.
The class uses `effective_deptypes` which takes a list of specs (e.g. single
item of a spec to build, or a list of environment roots) and a context
(build, run, test), and outputs a flat list of specs that affect the
environment together with a flag in what way they do so. This list is
topologically ordered from root to leaf, so that one can be assured that
dependents override variables set by dependencies, not the other way
around.
This is used to replace the logic in `modifications_from_dependencies`,
which has several issues: missing calls to `setup_run_environment`, and
the order in which operations are applied.
Further, it should improve performance a bit in certain cases, since
`effective_deptypes` run in O(v + e) time, whereas `spack env activate`
currently can take up to O(v^2 + e) time due to loops over roots. Each
edge in the DAG is visited once by calling `effective_deptypes` with
`env.concrete_roots()`.
By marking and propagating flags through the DAG, this commit also fixes
a bug where Spack wouldn't call `setup_run_environment` for runtime
dependencies of link dependencies. And this PR ensures that Spack
correctly sets up the runtime environment of direct build dependencies.
Regarding test dependencies: in a build context they are are build-time
test deps, whereas in a test context they are install-time test deps.
Since there are no means to distinguish the build/install type test deps,
they're both.
Further changes:
- all `package.py` module globals are guaranteed to be set before any of the
`setup_(dependent)_(run|build)_env` functions is called
- traversal order during setup: first the group of externals, then the group
of non-externals, with specs in each group traversed topological (dependencies
are setup before dependents)
- modules: only ever call `setup_dependent_run_environment` of *direct* link/run
type deps
- the marker in `set_module_variables_for_package` is dropped, since we should
call the method once per spec. This allows us to set only a cheap subset of
globals on the module: for example it's not necessary to compute the expensive
`cmake_args` and w/e if the spec under consideration is not the root node to be
built.
- `spack load`'s `--only` is deprecated (it has no effect now), and `spack load x`
now means: do everything that's required for `x` to work at runtime, which
requires runtime deps to be setup -- just like `spack env activate`.
- `spack load` no longer loads build deps (of build deps) ...
- `spack env activate` on partially installed or broken environments: this is all
or nothing now. If some spec errors during setup of its runtime env, you'll only
get the unconditional variables + a warning that says the runtime changes for
specs couldn't be applied.
- Remove traversal in upward direction from `setup_dependent_*` in packages.
Upward traversal may iterate to specs that aren't children of the roots
(e.g. zlib / python have hundreds of dependents, only a small fraction is
reachable from the roots. Packages should only modify the direct dependent
they receive as an argument)
At some point the `a` mock package became an `AutotoolsPackage`, and that means it
depends on `gnuconfig` on macOS. This was causing one of our shell tests to fail on
macOS because it was testing for `{a.prefix.bin}:{b.prefix.bin}` in `PATH`, but
`gnuconfig` shows up between them.
- [x] simplify the test to check `spack load --sh a` and `spack load --sh b` separately
* Add a new test to catch exit code failure
fixes#29226
This introduces a new unit test that checks the return
code of `spack unit-test` when it is supposed to fail.
This is to prevent bugs like the one introduced in #25601
in which CI didn't catch a missing return statement.
In retrospective it seems that the shell test we have right
now all go through `tty.die` or similar code paths which
call `sys.exit(a)` explicitly. This new test instead checks
`spack unit-test` which relies on the return code from
command invocation in case of errors.
See #25249 and https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/27159#issuecomment-958163679.
This adds `spack load --list` as an alias for `spack find --loaded`. The new command is
not as powerful as `spack find --loaded`, as you can't combine it with all the queries or
formats that `spack find` provides. However, it is more intuitively located in the command
structure in that it appears in the output of `spack load --help`.
The idea here is that people can use `spack load --list` for simple stuff but fall back to
`spack find --loaded` if they need more.
- add help to `spack load --list` that references `spack find`
- factor some parts of `spack find` out to be called from `spack load`
- add shell tests
- update docs

* Deactivate previous env before activating new one
Currently on develop you can run `spack env activate` multiple times to switch
between environments, but they leave traces, even though Spack only supports
one active environment at a time.
Currently:
```console
$ spack env create a
$ spack env create b
$ spack env activate -p a
[a] $ spack env activate -p b
[b] [a] $ spack env activate -p b
[a] [b] [a] $ spack env activate -p a
[a] [b] [c] $ echo $MANPATH | tr ":" "\n"
/path/to/environments/a/.spack-env/view/share/man
/path/to/environments/a/.spack-env/view/man
/path/to/environments/b/.spack-env/view/share/man
/path/to/environments/b/.spack-env/view/man
```
This PR fixes that:
```console
$ spack env activate -p a
[a] $ spack env activate -p b
[b] $ spack env activate -p a
[a] $ echo $MANPATH | tr ":" "\n"
/path/to/environments/a/.spack-env/view/share/man
/path/to/environments/a/.spack-env/view/man
```
Creates an environment in a temporary directory and activates it, which
is useful for a quick ephemeral environment:
```
$ spack env activate -p --temp
[spack-1a203lyg] $ spack add zlib
==> Adding zlib to environment /tmp/spack-1a203lyg
==> Updating view at /tmp/spack-1a203lyg/.spack-env/view
```
Currently, module configurations are inconsistent because modulefiles are generated with the configs for the active environment, but are shared among all environments (and spack outside any environment).
This PR fixes that by allowing Spack environments (or other spack config scopes) to define additional sets of modules to generate. Each set of modules can enable either lmod or tcl modules, and contains all of the previously available module configuration. The user defines the name of each module set -- the set configured in Spack by default is named "default", and is the one returned by module manipulation commands in the absence of user intervention.
As part of this change, the module roots configuration moved from the config section to inside each module configuration.
Additionally, it adds a feature that the modulefiles for an environment can be configured to be relative to an environment view rather than the underlying prefix. This will not be enabled by default, as it should only be enabled within an environment and for non-default views constructed with separate projections per-spec.
Drops:
* C_INCLUDE_PATH
* CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH
* LIBRARY_PATH
* INCLUDE
We already decided to use C_INCLUDE_PATH, CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH, INCLUDE over CPATH here:
https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/14749
However, none of these flags apply to Fortran on Linux. So for consistency it seems better to make the user use -I and -L flags by hand or through pkgconfig.
- [x] add `concretize.lp`, `spack.yaml`, etc. to licensed files
- [x] update all licensed files to say 2013-2021 using
`spack license update-copyright-year`

for oneapi.py
Previously the `spack load` command was a wrapper around `module load`. This required some bootstrapping of modules to make `spack load` work properly.
With this PR, the `spack` shell function handles the environment modifications necessary to add packages to your user environment. This removes the dependence on environment modules or lmod and removes the requirement to bootstrap spack (beyond using the setup-env scripts).
Included in this PR is support for MacOS when using Apple's System Integrity Protection (SIP), which is enabled by default in modern MacOS versions. SIP clears the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` and `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` variables on process startup for executables that live in `/usr` (but not '/usr/local', `/System`, `/bin`, and `/sbin` among other system locations. Spack cannot know the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` of the calling process when executed using `/bin/sh` and `/usr/bin/python`. The `spack` shell function now manually forwards these two variables, if they are present, as `SPACK_<VAR>` and recovers those values on startup.

This PR adds a `--format=bash` option to `spack commands` to
auto-generate the Bash programmable tab completion script. It can be
extended to work for other shells.
Progress:
- [x] Fix bug in superclass initialization in `ArgparseWriter`
- [x] Refactor `ArgparseWriter` (see below)
- [x] Ensure that output of old `--format` options remains the same
- [x] Add `ArgparseCompletionWriter` and `BashCompletionWriter`
- [x] Add `--aliases` option to add command aliases
- [x] Standardize positional argument names
- [x] Tests for `spack commands --format=bash` coverage
- [x] Tests to make sure `spack-completion.bash` stays up-to-date
- [x] Tests for `spack-completion.bash` coverage
- [x] Speed up `spack-completion.bash` by caching subroutine calls
This PR also necessitates a significant refactoring of
`ArgparseWriter`. Previously, `ArgparseWriter` was mostly a single
`_write` method which handled everything from extracting the information
we care about from the parser to formatting the output. Now, `_write`
only handles recursion, while the information extraction is split into a
separate `parse` method, and the formatting is handled by `format`. This
allows subclasses to completely redefine how the format will appear
without overriding all of `_write`.

Dotkit is being used only at a few sites and has been deprecated on new
machines. This commit removes all the code that provide support for the
generation of dotkit module files.
A new validator named "deprecatedProperties" has been added to the
jsonschema validators. It permits to prompt a warning message or exit
with an error if a property that has been marked as deprecated is
encountered.
* Removed references to dotkit in the docs
* Removed references to dotkit in setup-env-test.sh
* Added a unit test for the 'deprecatedProperties' schema validator
- [x] Add shell tests to ensure that `spack env activate`, `spack env
deactivate`, and `despacktivate` continue to work.
- [x] Also ensure that activate and deactivate both work with `set -u`
- Add set -u to the setup-env.sh test script
- Refactor lines in setup-env.sh that tested potentially undefined
variables to use the `[ -z ${var+x} ]` construct
- tests use a shell-script harness and test all Spack commands that
require special shell support.
- tests work in bash, zsh, and dash
- run setup-env.sh tests on macos and linux builds.
- we run them on macos and linux
