mars-docker

A docker image for MARS

After cloning this repo you can do

$ docker build -t mars .
$ docker run --rm -i -t mars

-i is for interactive, -t mars specifiies the tag for the container, --rm deletes the container after you are done.

If you want to build root and Mars with more than 1 core, use:

$ docker build --build-arg CORES=24 -t mars .

Mounting data volumes

To access raw data and write out analysis results, you weill probably need to mount volumes into the container. This is done with the -v /path/on/your/machine:/path/in/docker/image option to docker run.

E.g.:

$ docker run -v /fact/raw:/fact/raw -v /gpfs1/scratch:/output --rm -i -t mars

Install on your host, this is tested on Ubuntu 16.04 and 17.04

First install the mandatory and optional dependencies of root

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y  git dpkg-dev make g++ gcc binutils \
    libx11-dev libxpm-dev libxft-dev libxext-dev htop \
    build-essential curl gfortran libssl-dev libpcre3-dev \
    xlibmesa-glu-dev libglew1.5-dev libftgl-dev \
    libmysqlclient-dev libfftw3-dev libcfitsio-dev \
    graphviz-dev libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev \
    libldap2-dev python-dev libxml2-dev libkrb5-dev \
    libgsl0-dev libqt4-dev cmake subversion libnova-dev vim

Then download and install anaconda:

curl -O -L https://repo.continuum.io/archive/Anaconda3-4.4.0-Linux-x86_64.sh
bash Anaconda3-4.4.0-Linux-x86_64.sh -p $HOME/.local/anaconda3 -b
$HOME/.local/anaconda3/bin/conda install libgcc=5
rm Anaconda3-4.4.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

Download and unpack the root source of the v5-34-00-patches branch:

cd $HOME/.local
curl -L  https://github.com/root-project/root/archive/v5-34-00-patches.tar.gz | tar xz

Make sure, that anaconda is not on your PATH, as this will result in linking against the wrong libraries during the ROOT build. E.g. by doing

export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

Create the root build directory, run cmake and build the project

mkdir root-5-34-anaconda3
cd root-5-34-anaconda3
cmake \
    -D builtin_zlib=ON \
    -D mathmore=ON \
    -D minuit2=ON \
    -D PYTHON_EXECUTABLE=$HOME/.local/anaconda3/bin/python \
    -D PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR=$HOME/.local/anaconda3/include/python3.6m \
    -D PYTHON_LIBRARY=$HOME/.local/anaconda3/lib/libpython3.6m.so \
    ../root-5-34-00-patches

cmake --build . -- -j<number of cores your machine has>
source bin/thisroot.sh

Download and install MARS

cd ..
svn checkout \
    https://trac.fact-project.org/svn/trunk/Mars \
    --trust-server-cert \
    --non-interactive
cd Mars
make mrproper
make -j7
