Did you mean to write starver dev v0.2.0-5.34.38
?
Or is there a star
script (sitting somewhere out of my search path) which takes the option ver
?
Did you mean to write
starver dev v0.2.0-5.34.38
?
Yes, it should be starver
(no space) as explained in this comment

Thanks. Also in that comment (and reading the code...) starver expects a filename like v0.2.0-5.34.38-64b.config
not v0.2.0-5.34.38-64b.csh
. Or am I missing something?
There would need to be a directory layout naming convention...
star-environment/root-version/ ... /32b.config
or64b.config
Other subdirectories to be added for (e.g.) geant versioning.
I appreciate the suggestion to minimize clutter, @klendathu2k .Can we know in advance what all items need versioning (e.g. GEANT, then what else?)....because re-organizing later would be problematic for maintaining compatibility of people's private scripts.

@genevb Geant versioning would be good. But as we add more and more directory levels... the starver command becomes less and less user friendly. More error prone for users to discover the available scripts. More annoying to type. So perhaps a flat directory structure is preferred after all. But the scripts should be under mgr/config instead of mgr to avoid the clutter.
And one last comment. The starver script looks for these environment scripts under $STAR/mgr. If it isn't found, a default config is executed. This means there is no possibility to specify a local script. The trick that I normally use (setting STAR to the local directory) doesn't work... b/c starver resets it.
$ ls mgr/mylocal.config
mgr/mylocal.config
$ setenv STAR .
$ starver dev mylocalversion
$ echo $STAR
/afs/rhic.bnl.gov/star/packages/DEV

Right, Jerome mentioned at the beginning that he would add this if we requested. Maybe we should request, as it would also help test this before final integration
Ok I sent an email to Jerome to address the loading of configs from local user directories. But we need to converge on the naming and backward compatibility issues as well. Commit b9a24df6e635d6791322b48165288eb4c2b17ea9 moves them into config sub directory and attempts to name them in a verbose way - but this is not user friendly at all
I would drop the v0.2.0 configs and only keep the currently latest v0.2.3. Since it is going to be the first time we rely on this environment there is no need to keep the older ones around.
OK commit 35dd3b40875d94ffe4cc7af33c3123dfd18e0fee removes the v0.2.0 configs and removes geant3 from the name per @plexoos comments.
Also @plexoos - we talked about adding an alias as "default" or "current" etc. but does that need to be part of the PR?
Please let me know if if there are any other changes needed before approval
Hi can we resolve this - I have not received any new comments? We are waiting on this for the potential to run production with official libraries (or dev). Maybe just need an approval from @plexoos
I have not heard from Jerome, but will ping him.
I have no objections and can approve and merge ASAP. If I understand correctly this will not have an immediately effect as there is no mgr/config/default.config
but it is probably a good thing at this point. It would be nice to hear from the production team
I also have no objection with these files in a config
subdirectory, and no impact on official productions.

Waiting only 19 minutes to merge after requesting to hear from the Production Team seems a bit....short? ;-)

p.s. Jerome is at a conference for which he is an organizer and contributing author on multiple talks. I'm not saying whether or not you will hear from him, but I'm giving you some context for why you might not.

Depends on your reference point: 19 minutes since my comment or 13 days since the original post
Thank you for confirming the (lack of) possible impact!
I checked out the group directory from CVS and modified .starver to look for a local configuration file. I confirmed that my version of starver runs, and executes the configuration script. I expect that the environment will be setup for root 6. It still points to root 5. So... this does not appear ready for prime time.
This is the config file which will be executed...
$ cat mgr/v0.23-6.16.00.config
#!/bin/csh -f
echo Setting spack env
module use /cvmfs/star.sdcc.bnl.gov/star-spack/spack/share/spack/modules/linux-rhel7-x86_64/
module load star-env-0.2.3-root-6.16.00
module load zlib-1.2.12
module load root-6.16.00
module list
This is the starver command executed and its result (I've deleted most of the module list
output because of formatting on the git page...)
starver DEV v0.23-6.16.00
Setting spack env
Currently Loaded Modulefiles:
1) /boost-1.59.0 ... 14) /root-6.16.00 ....
And now which version of ROOT is loaded?
$ which root.exe
/afs/rhic.bnl.gov/star/ROOT/5.34.38/.sl73_x8664_gcc485/rootdeb/bin/root.exe
I am a bit confused... What commands do I need to run to reproduce?
Probably the simplest way to reproduce ...
$ cp -R ~jwebb/group . $ cp -R /star/simu/simu/jwebb/2022/star-root6/star-sw-1/mgr .
$ setup 64b $ setenv GROUP_DIR ./group $ starver dev v0.23-6.16.00

Ok, I followed the steps exactly. Here is what I see:
$ which root.exe
/cvmfs/star.sdcc.bnl.gov/star-spack/spack/opt/spack/linux-rhel7-x86_64/gcc-4.8.5/root-6.16.00-bdclikaa3lfpfqolnfmwkcv5ws4vtepn/bin/root.exe
Okay. That means there is something funny going on in my environment.

... and now it is working for me. I picked the wrong week to stop drinking coffee.

This PR provides 2 configs to load spack library versions: 0.2.3 (32b & 64b)
I have not added scripts for root 6 variants yet as I do not think these are used by anyone. If I understand correctly, these will become usable with, e.g.:
OR
Closes #359
