Introduction

Spack is a multi-package setup and build system. It replaces UPS and MRB (Multi-Repo Build) and related packages. The computing division will work to build and provide their software (art, ifdhc) within spack. Mu2e will probably not use the spack build features, but will have to use spack to access pre-built software, instead of ups setup command.

Scripts are provided to allow a spack setup of a UPS product and vice versa. The user doesn't see the difference.

Usage

setup mu2e
source /cvmfs/fermilab.opensciencegrid.org/packages/common/spack/rollout/NULL/share/spack/setup-env.sh

defines

SPACK_ROOT=/cvmfs/fermilab.opensciencegrid.org/packages/common/spack/rollout/NULL
MODULEPATH=$SPACK_ROOT/share/spack/modules/linux-scientific7-x86_64
DK_NODE=$SPACK_ROOT/share/spack/dotkit/linux-scientific7-x86_64
PATH= ... /cvmfs/fermilab.opensciencegrid.org/packages/common/spack/rollout/NULL/bin
BASH_FUNC_spack()=... load ... unload ...

and some useful commands

spack -h
spack find -h
spack arch
spack find
spack find --variants art_root_io arch=linux-scientific7-x86_64_v2 %gcc@13.1.0
spack find -ldv 

You can see the common lab packages are available in spack: ifdhc, jobsub_client, sam_web_client.

spack load ifdhc
# load (like ups setup) using a hash for the version and qualifiers
spack load ifdhc/242t7pk

Notes

show what spack knows about architectures

spack arch --known-targets

full listing of dependencies

spack find --long --show-flags --deps --variants ifdhc

diff between two hashes

spack diff art-root-io/jrcjyn4 art-root-io/h43e5rd

How to group sets of setups into one. You can make a spack environment, like

spack env create uboone_analysis_current_sl7_x86_64

then

spack activate uboone_analysis_current_sl7_x86_64

and "spack install" packages into it; then if you

spack env activate uboone_analysis_current_sl7_x86_64

those will be the packages you see, and they're all spack loaded at once. Marc stills need to add support for that to the cvmfs scripts though...
