USER-PLUMED package :h4,link(user-plumed)
[CMake build]:
[Traditional make]:
Before building LAMMPS with this package, you must first build
PLUMED. We recommending building PLUMED separately to LAMMPS using
the instructions that can be found at http://plumed.github.io/doc-master/user-doc/html/_installation.html.
Before compiling LAMMPS you can then install the fix plumed command
and compile LAMMPS in the usual manner:
make yes-user-plumed
make machine :pre
Once this compilation completes you should be able to run LAMMPS in the usual
way. When running LAMMPS with an input script that contains a fix
plumed command LAMMPS will try to call the PLUMED runtime library. PLUMED
must therefore be available in your path if LAMMPS is compiled in this way.
On some machines it is not possible to call runtime libraries in the way described
above. When compiling on these machines it is thus better to statically link
PLUMED when compiling LAMMPS. To do this you must either download a PLUMED
tarball from http://www.plumed.org/get-it or clone it using
git clone https://github.com/plumed/plumed2.git. If you download the tarball
unpack it in the /lib/plumed directory. Similarly if you clone
it clone it to the /lib/plumed directory as if there is a version of PLUMED within
this directory LAMMPS will always try to statically link the version of PLUMED
that this directory contains instead of dynamically linking the library.
Once you have downloaded PLUMED into /lib/plumed you must again build the code
here by following the instructions that can be found at
http://plumed.github.io/doc-master/user-doc/html/_installation.html.
You can statically link PLUMED manually and if you want to access the full
range of PLUMED functionalities this is what you should do. If you only want the
basic range of functionalities, however, (i.e. no user contributed modules) then
you can download and compile PLUMED in one step from the lammps/src dir, using a
command like like those below:
make lib-plumed # print help message
make lib-plumed args="-b" # download and build the latest stable version of PLUMED
These commands will simply invoke the lib/plumed/Install.py script with
args specified. Furthermore, once the script has completed you should
have a compiled version of PLUMED. With this built you can install/un-install
PLUMED and build LAMMPS in the usual manner:
make yes-user-plumed
make machine :pre
make no-user-plumed
make machine :pre

USER-H5MD package :h4,link(user-h5md)
To build with this package you must have the HDF5 software package
