Auto installer

1) Download AutoMeKin's auto installer script automekin.sh

2) Make the file executable:

chmod +x automekin.sh

3) Run the auto installer:

./automekin.sh

Note that depending on your Linux configuration, previous to run the autoinstaller you might need to change some parameters which will require admin or root privilege.

After that not admin or root privilege will be needed.

4) The auto installer will install singularity and run automekin2020_872.sif image. The container comes with all tools of AutoMeKin plus vim, gnuplot and molden which can be run from the container. AutoMeKin is installed in $AMK

Singularity's image

If you have already singularity installed in your computer you can obtain the image using (from your $HOME):

singularity pull library://emartineznunez/default/automekin2020:872

The container is launched by just typing the name of the image you have just downloaded from sylabs:

automekin2020_872.sif

Note that if you want to use g09 you must bind it the container using this script:

if G09DIR=$(dirname $(which g09 2> /dev/null) 2> /dev/null)
then
   if [ -d $GAUSS_SCRDIR ]
   then
      SINGULARITYENV_GAUSS_SCRDIR=/scratch SINGULARITYENV_PREPEND_PATH=/opt/g09 singularity run --bind $G09DIR:/opt/g09 --bind $GAUSS_SCRDIR:/scratch $HOME/automekin2020_872.sif
   else
      SINGULARITYENV_PREPEND_PATH=/opt/g09 singularity run --bind $G09DIR:/opt/g09 $HOME/automekin2020_872.sif
   fi
else
   echo "Gaussian 09 not available, only low-level calculations available"
   singularity run $HOME/automekin2020_872.sif
fi

Tarball

Download the tarball from here

Untar and unzip the file:

tar xvfz Amk-SOURCE-20XX.tar.gz


Installing dependencies

Before installing amk for the first time, be aware that the following packages are needed:

- GNU Bash

- GNU bc

- environment-modules

- GNU Awk (gawk)

- GNU C Compiler (gcc)

- Gnuplot

- GNU Fortran Compiler (gfortran)

- GNU Parallel

- SQLite (version >= 3)

- Zenity

You can install the missing ones manually, or you can use the scripts located in amk-SOURCE-20XX and called install-required-packages-distro.sh (where distro=ubuntu-16.4lts, centos7 or sl7), which will do the work for you.The ubuntu-16.4lts script installs all dependencies, but for the RHEL derivatives (centos7 and sl7) you have to install parallel separately, and you have two choices:

a) install-gnu-parallel-from-source.sh. This script installs parallel latest version from source thanks to Ole Tange (the author). Also it can fallback to a user private installation into $HOME/bin if you have not administrator permisions to install it globally.

b) install-gnu-parallel-from-epel.sh. Enables the EPEL repository and installs parallel from it.

The program employs python3 and the following python3 libraries are needed (which can be easily installed with pip):

- ASE

- Matplotlib

- NetworkX

- NumPy

- SciPy

The program runs using two levels of theory: semiempirical (or Low-Level LL) and ab initio/DFT (or High-Level HL). So far, the only program interfaced with amk to perform the ab initio/DFT calculations is G09. Therefore, if you want to perform the HL calculations G09 should be installed and should run like in this example:

g09<inputfile>outputfile

These packages might also be useful to analyze the results:

- molden

- sqlitebrowser


Installation

Once the above packages are installed, either:

Go to AutoMeKin if you cloned it from github

cd AutoMeKin

or go to the amk-SOURCE-20XX folder, if you downloaded the tarball.

cd amk-SOURCE-20XX

In both cases, the process continues the same way. Now type:

./configure

This will install amk in $HOME/amk-20XX by default. If you want to install it in a different directory, type:

./configure --prefix=path_to_program

Finally, complete the installation:

make
make install
make clean

The last command (make clean) is only necessary if you want to remove from the src directory the object files and executables created in the compilation process.

For convenience, and once “Environment Modules” has been installed, you should add the following line to your .bashrc file:

module use path_to_program/modules

where path_to_program is the path where you installed amk (e.g., $HOME/amk-20XX).

Running the test

To run the formic acid test example (explained in the tutorial ) for a few trajectories follow these steps:

1) Load the module:

module load amk/20XX

2) Run the script if amk has been installed in $HOME:

run_test.sh

or

run_test.sh --prefix=path_to_program

otherwise. For instance, if you use Singularity, AutoMeKin is installed in $AMK and therefore you should use:

run_test.sh --prefix=$AMK

The results of each test will be gathered in a different directory.

If you want to run a subset of tests use the following:

run_test.sh --tests=FA, FAthermo

which will run FA and FAthermo tests only. These are the tests available in this version: assoc, rdiels_alder, diels_alder, FA_biasH2, FA_biasH2O, FA_bxde, FA_singletraj, FA, FAthermo, FA_programopt and vdW.

The --prefix and --tests options can be used simultaneously.

Note that each each test takes from a few seconds to several minutes.

Older versions

Download the tarball for the 2018 version from here

And follow the instructions given above (tarball).

Github

AutoMekin is also on GitHub.
2018 version: 90px

2020 version: 90px
