State-of-the-art stellarator optimization code
The STELLOPT Suite compiles a subset of included codes and can link to precompiled codes (expanding it's capabilities). STELLOPT is maintained using git. The repository is maintained at GitHub.
To use the MANGO library of optimization algorithms in STELLOPT, you should first obtain and build MANGO following the instructions here.
The STELLOPT code is now fully open-sourced with MIT license. You can view the source code at https://github.com/PrincetonUniversity/STELLOPT.
The master branch contains the cutting edge version of the code while develop has the latest testing capabilities.The general workflow should be:
STELLOPT_PATH
equal to the path to the repository folder (for example ~/src/STELLOPT/
)MACHINE
variable to be set (specific links below)../build_all
to build all the codes.To build a specific subcode enter the directory of the code and issue the command make clean_release
to rebuild the whole code with optimization flags, make clean_debug
to build the whole code for debugging, make release
to only build files which have changed, make debug
to only build files which have changed with debugging on, or make
which aliases to make release
.
For those wishing to develop the code please create a new branch based on develop . Before pushing this branch back to bitbucket, do a pull and merge of the develop branch into your branch to verify that updates and changes work. Then push you branch to the GitHub server. Once you done this, issue a pull request to have your branch merged with develop. All merges into develop should be tracked through the GitHub interface (save small things which do not directly affect compiling).
If you find the instructions are out dated, please raise an issue. Direct contributions to the documentation on the gh-pages branch are particularly welcomed.
