Official User Instructions
For Windows Operating System:
Install the latest version of Python from the official website (https://www.python.org/downloads/)
Install Anaconda (https://www.anaconda.com/products/distribution)
You will need various packages to run the program
Open Windows power shell, use
py -m pip
to install pip, which will allow you to install these required modules, then use
py -m pip install __package name____
for the packages:
- numpy
- matplotlib
- scipy
Next, you need to generate the executable using Anaconda, or compiling the code using CMake. Anaconda is
recommended as the simpler and quicker option.
Using Anaconda:
Open the Anaconda Prompt (included when Anaconda is downloaded) and use commands:
conda create -n impact
source activate impact # or conda activate impact
conda install -c conda-forge impact-t
Your executable will be found in C:\Users\__username__\anaconda3\envs\impact, under the name "ImpactTexe"
You may choose move ImpactTexe to the same directory as the GUI, but this is not necessary. Simply specify
the absolute path of the executable on the GUI.
Once you have your executable, you are ready to run ImpactT.
Open your Anaconda Prompt (the executable cannot be run using Windows Powershell) and navigate to the /GUI directory.
Use command:
activate impact
if you are not already in the "impact" environment
Run the GUI with the command:
py ImpactGUI.py
For Linux:
Install the latest version of Python from the official website (https://www.python.org/downloads/)
Install Anaconda (https://www.anaconda.com/products/distribution)
You will need various packages to run the program
Open the terminal, use
python -m pip
or, if "python" is not recognized
python3 -m pip
to install pip, which will allow you to install these required modules, then use
python -m pip install __package name____
or (must match the one you installed pip with)
python3 -m pip install __package name____
for the packages:
- numpy
- matplotlib
- scipy
Next, you need to generate the executable using Anaconda, or compiling the code using CMake. Anaconda is
recommended as the simpler and quicker option.
Using Anaconda:
Open the Anaconda Prompt (included when Anaconda is downloaded) and use commands:
conda create -n impact
source activate impact # or conda activate impact
conda install -c conda-forge impact-t
Your executable will be found in C:\Users\__username__\anaconda3\envs\impact, under the name "ImpactTexe"
You may choose move ImpactTexe to the same directory as the GUI, but this is not necessary. Simply specify
the absolute path of the executable on the GUI.
Once you have your executable, you are ready to run ImpactT.
Navigate to the /GUI directory, and use command:
python ImpactGUI.py
or
python3 ImpactGUI.py
For NERSC:
Clone the repository onto your own file library.
All python packages needed are already included in NERSC, simply activate them using the command:
module load python
Next, you need to generate the executable using Anaconda, or compiling the code using CMake. Anaconda is
recommended as the simpler and quicker option.
Anaconda is already included in the loaded Python modules, so simply use commands:
conda create -n impact
conda activate impact
conda install -c conda-forge impact-t
Your executable will be found in /global/homes/i/__your_username__/.conda/envs/impact/bin,
under the name "ImpactTexe"
You may choose move ImpactTexe to the same directory as the GUI, but this is not necessary. Simply specify
the absolute path of the executable on the GUI.
Once you have your executable, you are ready to run ImpactT.
Navigate to the /GUI directory, and use command:
python ImpactGUI.py
For Mac:
Please note that various issues have been found with running IMPACT-T on Mac that are not present on other
operating systems. Known issues include, but are not limited to:
- Modules necessary for running IMPACT-T cannot be correctly installed when running Python 3.10 or above,
as of current, only Python 3.9 can potentially IMPACT-T on Mac without error
When successfully download, potential issues include:
- pre-processing causing "IndexOutofBounds" error
- the run process randomly repeats or skips over certain numbers
Install latest version of python through the official website
Errors:
When trying to install numpy
It is suggested that using python 3.8 may work
However, a different scientist suggested on Github that the python packages used for this program will not be supported on Mac, due to the use of Fortran
