============ Installation ============ The following steps work installing the dependencies in Linux via apt-get or in macOS using brew or macports. While using packages managers such as Anaconda, Miniforge, or Mamba might work, these are not tested. Python package -------------- To install the **pyopmnearwell** executable from the development version: .. code-block:: bash pip install git+https://github.com/cssr-tools/pyopmnearwell.git If you are interested in a specific version (e.g., v2024.10) or in modifying the source code, then you can clone the repository and install the Python requirements in a virtual environment with the following commands: .. code-block:: console # Clone the repo git clone https://github.com/cssr-tools/pyopmnearwell.git # Get inside the folder cd pyopmnearwell # For a specific version (e.g., v2024.10), or skip this step (i.e., edge version) git checkout v2024.10 # Create virtual environment python3 -m venv vpyopmnearwell # Activate virtual environment source vpyopmnearwell/bin/activate # Upgrade pip, setuptools, and wheel pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel # Install the pyopmnearwell package pip install -e . # For contributions/testing/linting, install the dev-requirements pip install -r dev-requirements.txt .. tip:: Typing **git tag -l** writes all available specific versions. OPM Flow -------- You also need to install: * OPM Flow (https://opm-project.org, Release 2025.04 or current master branches) .. tip:: See the `CI.yml `_ script for installation of OPM Flow (binary packages) and the pyopmnearwell package in Ubuntu. Source build in Linux/Windows +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ If you are a Linux user (including the Windows subsystem for Linux), then you could try to build Flow (after installing the `prerequisites `_) from the master branches with mpi support by running in the terminal the following lines (which in turn should build flow in the folder ./build/opm-simulators/bin/flow): .. code-block:: console CURRENT_DIRECTORY="$PWD" for repo in common grid simulators do git clone https://github.com/OPM/opm-$repo.git done mkdir build for repo in common grid do mkdir build/opm-$repo cd build/opm-$repo cmake -DUSE_MPI=1 -DWITH_NDEBUG=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/build/opm-common" $CURRENT_DIRECTORY/opm-$repo make -j5 opm$repo cd ../.. done mkdir build/opm-simulators cd build/opm-simulators cmake -DUSE_MPI=1 -DWITH_NDEBUG=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/build/opm-common;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/build/opm-grid" $CURRENT_DIRECTORY/opm-simulators make -j5 flow cd ../.. .. tip:: You can create a .sh file (e.g., build_opm_mpi.sh), copy the previous lines, and run in the terminal **source build_opm_mpi.sh** Source build in macOS +++++++++++++++++++++ For macOS, there are no available binary packages, so OPM Flow needs to be built from source, in addition to the dune libraries (see the `prerequisites `_, which can be installed using macports or brew). For example, with brew the prerequisites can be installed by: .. code-block:: console brew install boost@1.85 cmake openblas suite-sparse python@3.12 .. note:: boost 1.89.0 was made available recently (August 14th, 2025), which it is not compatible with OPM Flow (yet). Then, we install boost 1.85, and add the cmake path to the boost include folder, as shown in the bash lines below. This can be achieved by the following lines: .. code-block:: console CURRENT_DIRECTORY="$PWD" for module in common geometry grid istl do git clone https://gitlab.dune-project.org/core/dune-$module.git --branch v2.9.1 done for module in common geometry grid istl do ./dune-common/bin/dunecontrol --only=dune-$module cmake -DCMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_MPI=1 ./dune-common/bin/dunecontrol --only=dune-$module make -j5 done for repo in common grid simulators do git clone https://github.com/OPM/opm-$repo.git done source vpyopmnearwell/bin/activate mkdir build for repo in common grid do mkdir build/opm-$repo cd build/opm-$repo cmake -DWITH_NDEBUG=1 -DUSE_MPI=0 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/boost@1.85/include;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/dune-common/build-cmake;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/dune-grid/build-cmake;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/dune-geometry/build-cmake;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/dune-istl/build-cmake;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/build/opm-common" $CURRENT_DIRECTORY/opm-$repo make -j5 opm$repo cd ../.. done mkdir build/opm-simulators cd build/opm-simulators cmake -DUSE_MPI=0 -DWITH_NDEBUG=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/boost@1.85/include;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/dune-common/build-cmake;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/dune-grid/build-cmake;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/dune-geometry/build-cmake;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/dune-istl/build-cmake;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/build/opm-common;$CURRENT_DIRECTORY/build/opm-grid" $CURRENT_DIRECTORY/opm-simulators make -j5 flow cd ../.. .. tip:: See `this repository `_ dedicated to build OPM Flow from source in the latest macOS (GitHub actions).
