* Docs: Getting Started Dependencies
Finally document what one needs to install to use Spack on
Linux and Mac :-)
With <3 for minimal container users and my colleagues with
their fancy Macs.
* Debian Update Packages: GCC, Python
- build-essential: includes gcc, g++ (thx Cory)
- Python: add python3-venv, python3-distutils (thx Pradyun)
* Add RHEL8 Dependencies
fixes#31484
Before this change if anything was matching an external
condition, it was considered "external" and thus something
to be "built".
This was happening in particular to external packages
that were re-read from the DB, which then couldn't be
reused, causing the problems shown in #31484.
This PR fixes the issue by excluding specs with a
"hash" from being considered "external"
* Test that users have a way to select a virtual
This ought to be solved by extending the "require"
attribute to virtual packages, so that one can:
```yaml
mpi:
require: 'multi-provider-mpi'
```
* Prevent conflicts to be enforced on specs that can be reused.
* Rename the "external_only" fact to "buildable_false", to better reflect its origin
* Preliminary support for include URLs in spack.yaml (environment) files
This commit adds support in environments for external configuration files obtained from a URL with a preference for grabbing raw text from GitHub and gitlab for efficient downloads of the relevant files. The URL can also be a link to a directory that contains multiple configuration files.
Remote configuration files are retrieved and cached for the environment. Configuration files with the same name will not be overwritten once cached.
Extend the semantics of package requirements to
allow using them also under a virtual package
attribute in packages.yaml
These requirements are enforced whenever that
virtual spec is present in the DAG.
Allow users to express default requirements in packages.yaml.
These requirements are overridden if more specific requirements
are present for a given package.
Spack doesn't have an easy way to say something like "If I build
package X, then I *need* version Y":
* If you specify something on the command line, then you ensure
that the constraints are applied, but the package is always built
* Likewise if you `spack add X...`` to your environment, the
constraints are guaranteed to hold, but the environment always
builds the package
* You can add preferences to packages.yaml, but these are not
guaranteed to hold (Spack can choose other settings)
This commit adds a 'require' subsection to packages.yaml: the
specs added there are guaranteed to hold. The commit includes
documentation for the feature.

All PRs are failing the docs build on account of an error with
pygments. These errors coincide with a new release of pygments
(2.13.0) and restricting to < 2.13 allows the doc tests to pass,
so this commit enforces that constraint for the docs build.

`LD_LIBRARY_PATH` can break system executables (e.g., when an enviornment is loaded) and isn't necessary thanks to `RPATH`s. Packages that require `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` can set this in `setup_run_environment`.
- [x] Prefix inspections no longer set `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` by default
- [x] Document changes and workarounds for people who want `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`
For a long time the module configuration has had a few settings that use
`blacklist`/`whitelist` terminology. We've been asked by some of our users to replace
this with more inclusive language. In addition to being non-inclusive, `blacklist` and
`whitelist` are inconsistent with the rest of Spack, which uses `include` and `exclude`
for the same concepts.
- [x] Deprecate `blacklist`, `whitelist`, `blacklist_implicits` and `environment_blacklist`
in favor of `exclude`, `include`, `exclude_implicits` and `exclude_env_vars` in module
configuration, to be removed in Spack v0.20.
- [x] Print deprecation warnings if any of the deprecated names are in module config.
- [x] Update tests to test old and new names.
- [x] Update docs.
- [x] Update `spack config update` to fix this automatically, and include a note in the error
that you can use this command.
The "submodules" argument of the "version" directive can now accept
a callable that returns a list of submodules, in addition to the usual
Boolean values
Explicitly import package utilities in all packages, and corresponding fallout.
This includes:
* rename `spack.package` to `spack.package_base`
* rename `spack.pkgkit` to `spack.package`
* update all packages in builtin, builtin_mock and tutorials to include `from spack.package import *`
* update spack style
* ensure packages include the import
* automatically add the new import and remove any/all imports of `spack` and `spack.pkgkit`
from packages when using `--fix`
* add support for type-checking packages with mypy when SPACK_MYPY_CHECK_PACKAGES
is set in the environment
* fix all type checking errors in packages in spack upstream
* update spack create to include the new imports
* update spack repo to inject the new import, injection persists to allow for a deprecation period
Original message below:
As requested @adamjstewart, update all packages to use pkgkit. I ended up using isort to do this,
so repro is easy:
```console
$ isort -a 'from spack.pkgkit import *' --rm 'spack' ./var/spack/repos/builtin/packages/*/package.py
$ spack style --fix
```
There were several line spacing fixups caused either by space manipulation in isort or by packages
that haven't been touched since we added requirements, but there are no functional changes in here.
* [x] add config to isort to make sure this is maintained going forward
This PR builds on #28392 by adding a convenience command to create a local mirror that can be used to bootstrap Spack. This is to overcome the inconvenience in setting up this mirror manually, which has been reported when trying to setup Spack on air-gapped systems.
Using this PR the user can create a bootstrapping mirror, on a machine with internet access, by:
% spack bootstrap mirror --binary-packages /opt/bootstrap
==> Adding "clingo-bootstrap@spack+python %apple-clang target=x86_64" and dependencies to the mirror at /opt/bootstrap/local-mirror
==> Adding "gnupg@2.3: %apple-clang target=x86_64" and dependencies to the mirror at /opt/bootstrap/local-mirror
==> Adding "patchelf@0.13.1:0.13.99 %apple-clang target=x86_64" and dependencies to the mirror at /opt/bootstrap/local-mirror
==> Adding binary packages from "https://github.com/alalazo/spack-bootstrap-mirrors/releases/download/v0.1-rc.2/bootstrap-buildcache.tar.gz" to the mirror at /opt/bootstrap/local-mirror
To register the mirror on the platform where it's supposed to be used run the following command(s):
% spack bootstrap add --trust local-sources /opt/bootstrap/metadata/sources
% spack bootstrap add --trust local-binaries /opt/bootstrap/metadata/binaries
The mirror has to be moved over to the air-gapped system, and registered using the commands shown at prompt. The command has options to:
1. Add pre-built binaries downloaded from Github (default is not to add them)
2. Add development dependencies for Spack (currently the Python packages needed to use spack style)
* bootstrap: refactor bootstrap.yaml to move sources metadata out
* bootstrap: allow adding/removing custom bootstrapping sources
This operation can be performed from the command line since
new subcommands have been added to `spack bootstrap`
* Add --trust argument to spack bootstrap add
* Add a command to generate a local mirror for bootstrapping
* Add a unit test for mirror creation
Currently, environments can either be concretized fully together or fully separately. This works well for users who create environments for interoperable software and can use `concretizer:unify:true`. It does not allow environments with conflicting software to be concretized for maximal interoperability.
The primary use-case for this is facilities providing system software. Facilities provide multiple MPI implementations, but all software built against a given MPI ought to be interoperable.
This PR adds a concretization option `concretizer:unify:when_possible`. When this option is used, Spack will concretize specs in the environment separately, but will optimize for minimal differences in overlapping packages.
* Add a level of indirection to root specs
This commit introduce the "literal" atom, which comes with
a few different "arities". The unary "literal" contains an
integer that id the ID of a spec literal. Other "literals"
contain information on the requests made by literal ID. For
instance zlib@1.2.11 generates the following facts:
literal(0,"root","zlib").
literal(0,"node","zlib").
literal(0,"node_version_satisfies","zlib","1.2.11").
This should help with solving large environments "together
where possible" since later literals can be now solved
together in batches.
* Add a mechanism to relax the number of literals being solved
* Modify spack solve to display the new criteria
Since the new criteria is above all the build criteria,
we need to modify the way we display the output.
Originally done by Greg in #27964 and cherry-picked
to this branch by the co-author of the commit.

* Inject reusable specs into the solve
Instead of coupling the PyclingoDriver() object with
spack.config, inject the concrete specs that can be
reused.
A method level function takes care of reading from
the store and the buildcache.
* spack solve: show output of multi-rounds
* add tests for best-effort coconcretization
* Enforce having at least a literal being solved

* Introduce concretizer:unify option to replace spack:concretization
* Deprecate concretization
* Make spack:concretization overrule concretize:unify for now
* Add environment update logic to move from spack:concretization to spack:concretizer:reuse
* Migrate spack:concretization to spack:concretize:unify in all locations
* For new environments make concretizer:unify explicit, so that defaults can be changed in 0.19
