Damselfly is a modular and extensible C++ framework that offers a range of functionalities for scientific computing. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Damselfly on the latest version of FreeBSD.
Before installing Damselfly, there are some prerequisites that you need to fulfil:
The first step is to update the system by running the following command:
sudo pkg update && sudo pkg upgrade
This command will update the package manager and all installed packages on your system.
Next, you need to install the dependencies required to build Damselfly. Run the following command to install them:
sudo pkg install cmake git g++ libxml2 hdf5 openmpi
Now, clone the Damselfly repository by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/damselfly/damselfly.git
This command will create a directory named damselfly on your system.
To build and install Damselfly, navigate to the damselfly directory, and run the following commands:
cd damselfly
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make && sudo make install
The first command creates a build directory and navigates into it. The second command generates the makefiles, and the third command compiles the source code. The fourth command installs Damselfly to your system.
Finally, to verify that Damselfly is installed correctly, run the following command:
damselfly --version
This command should output the version number of Damselfly.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Damselfly on your FreeBSD latest machine. You can now use Damselfly to carry out scientific computation. If you encounter any issues during the installation process, consult the Damselfly documentation or seek assistance from the Damselfly community.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
