GCMT3D

This is the initial commit for the revisited global cmt solution to allow for 3D velocity structures.

Installation

In order to install GCMT3D we first need to create a new conda environment. Then we install the dependencies, and finally GCMT3D itself. The required steps are the following.

First, make sure all necessary environment vairables are solved:

Check whether an mpi compiler is installed:

which mpicc # Shoud return the location of your mpi compiler

if nothing is returned or the output says find then install a compiler.

1. Create and activate a new conda environment with python 3.7

conda create -n <your_environment> python=3.7
conda activate <your_environment>

2. Install separate dependencies:

# Install basemap using conda
conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda install basemap
conda install mpi4py

3. Download GCMT3D

# Download GCMT3D
git clone https://github.com/lsawade/GCMT3D.git
cd GCMT3D/

4. Install other requirements using pip

pip install -r requirements.txt

5. Install GCMT3D

# Install GCMT3D in the current conda environment
pip install .

Test that GCMT3D was successfully installed by running the following command

python -c "import gcmt3d"

Travis automatic testing

The Travis automatic system is setup to load the latest anaconda release for Linux. Then, in a Python 3.7 environment, all required software is downloaded and installed. For the installation steps, please refer to the .travis.yml in the main directory. It mainly follows the steps in the quick install.
