Python package for building MODFLOW-based programs from source files.
This is a python package for building MODFLOW-based and other Fortran, C, and
C++ programs. The package downloads the source files a target is released with
and builds it with the meson build system, using GNU
compilers (gcc, g++, gfortran), Clang compilers (clang, clang++), or
the Intel compilers (ifort, icl, icc, mpiifort).
A target that is released with a meson build file is built with the build file
it provides. A target that is not is built with a build file pymake writes from
the source files it finds, which are ordered with a directed acyclic graph of
the module dependencies. A GNU makefile can be written for a target as well, or
instead of building it, with --makefile and --makefile-only.
pymake can be run from the command line or it can be called from within python. By default, pymake sets the optimization level, Fortran flags, C/C++ flags, and linker flags that are consistent with those used to compile MODFLOW-based programs released by the USGS.
Note that if gfortran is used to compile MODFLOW-based codes, the openspec.f
and FILESPEC.inc (MT3DMS) files will automatically be changed to the
following so that binary files are created properly using standard Fortran:
c -- created by pymake_base.py
CHARACTER*20 ACCESS,FORM,ACTION(2)
DATA ACCESS/'STREAM'/
DATA FORM/'UNFORMATTED'/
DATA (ACTION(I),I=1,2)/'READ','READWRITE'/
c -- end of include file
When pymake is installed, a mfpymake (or mfpymake.exe for Windows) program is installed.mfpymake can be used to
compile MODFLOW 6 from source files located on your computer directly from the command line using
the Intel Fortran compiler ifort from the root directory containing the src subdirectory by specifying:
mfpymake src/ mf6 -mc --subdirs -fc ifort
To see help for running from command line, use the following statement.
mfpymake -h
The help message identifies required positional arguments and optional arguments that can be provided to override default values.

[-sl {-lc,-lm}] [-mf] [-dr] [-mfo] [-md MAKEFILEDIR] [-cs COMMONSRC]
[-ef EXTRAFILES] [-exf EXCLUDEFILES] [-so] [-ad APPDIR] [-v] [--keep] [--zip ZIP]
[--inplace] [--mesondir MESONDIR]
srcdir target
This is the pymake program for building fortran, c, and c++ source
files, such as the source files that come with MODFLOW. The program
builds a target with the meson build system, using the build file the
target provides where there is one and writing one from the source
files it finds where there is not. A GNU makefile can be written for
the target as well, or instead of building it.
positional arguments:
srcdir Path source directory.
target Name of target to create. (can include path)
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-fc FC Fortran compiler to use. A version suffix, for example gfortran-13, can be
included. Valid compilers are ifort, mpiifort, gfortran, and none.
(default is gfortran)
-cc CC C/C++ compiler to use. A version suffix, for example gcc-13, can be
included. Valid compilers are gcc, clang, clang++, icc, icl, mpiicc, g++,
cl, and none. (default is gcc)
-mc, --makeclean Clean temporary object, module, and source files when done. (default is
False)
-dbl, --double Force double precision. (default is False)
-dbg, --debug Create debug version. (default is False)
-sd, --subdirs Include source files in srcdir subdirectories. (default is None)
-ff FFLAGS, --fflags FFLAGS
Additional Fortran compiler flags. Fortran compiler flags should be
enclosed in quotes and start with a blank space or separated from the name
(-ff or --fflags) with a equal sign (-ff='-O3'). (default is None)
-cf CFLAGS, --cflags CFLAGS
Additional C/C++ compiler flags. C/C++ compiler flags should be enclosed
in quotes and start with a blank space or separated from the name (-cf or
--cflags) with a equal sign (-cf='-O3'). (default is None)
-sl {-lc,-lm}, --syslibs {-lc,-lm}
Linker system libraries. Linker libraries should be enclosed in quotes and
start with a blank space or separated from the name (-sl or --syslibs)
with a equal sign (-sl='-libgcc'). (default is None)
-mf, --makefile Create a GNU make makefile. (default is False)
-dr, --dryrun Deprecated name for --makefile-only, which replaced it when the pymake
build engine was removed. (default is False)
-mfo, --makefile-only
Create a GNU make makefile without building the target. (default is False)
-md MAKEFILEDIR, --makefiledir MAKEFILEDIR
GNU make makefile directory. (default is '.')
-cs COMMONSRC, --commonsrc COMMONSRC
Additional directory with common source files. (default is None)
-ef EXTRAFILES, --extrafiles EXTRAFILES
List of extra source files to include in the compilation. extrafiles can
be either a list of files or the name of a text file that contains a list
of files. (default is None)
-exf EXCLUDEFILES, --excludefiles EXCLUDEFILES
List of extra source files to exclude from the compilation. excludefiles
can be either a list of files or the name of a text file that contains a
list of files. (default is None)
-so, --sharedobject Create shared object or dll on Windows. (default is False)
-ad APPDIR, --appdir APPDIR
Target path that overrides path defined target path (default is None)
-v, --verbose Verbose output to terminal. (default is False)
--keep Keep existing executable. (default is False)
--zip ZIP Zip built executable. (default is None)
--inplace Source files in srcdir are used directly. (default is False)
--mesondir MESONDIR meson directory. (default is the directory the target is downloaded to)
Note that the source directory should not contain any bad
or duplicate source files as all source files in the source
directory, the common source file directory (srcdir2), and
the extra files (extrafiles) will be built and linked.
Files can be excluded by using the excludefiles command
line switch.
Examples:
Compile MODFLOW 6 from the root directory containing the
source files in subdirectories in the src/ subdirectory:
$ mfpymake src/ mf6 --subdirs
Compile MODFLOW 6 in the bin subdirectory using the Intel
Fortran compiler from the root directory containing the source
files in subdirectories in the the src/ subdirectory:
$ mfpymake src/ mf6 --subdirs -fc ifort --appdir bin
Note that command line arguments for Fortran flags, C/C++ flags, and syslib libraries should be enclosed in quotes and
start with a space prior to the first value (-ff ' -O3') or use an equal sign separating the command line argument and
the values (-ff='-O3'). The command line argument to use an -O3 optimization level when compiling MODFLOW 6 with
the ifort compiler would be:
mfpymake src/ mf6 -mc --subdirs -fc ifort -ff='-O3'
When using the pymake object (Pymake()) only the positional arguments
(srcdir, target) need to be specified in the script.
import pymake
pm = pymake.Pymake()
pm.srcdir = '../src'
pm.target = 'mf6'
pm.include_subdirs = True
pm.build()It is suggested that optional variables required for successful compiling and linking be manually specified in the
script to mininimize the potential for unsuccessful builds. For MODFLOW 6, subdirectories in the src subdirectory need
to be included and 'pm.include_subdirs = True' has been specified in the script. Custom optimization levels and
compiler flags could be specified to get consistent builds.
Non-default values for the optional arguments can specified as command line arguments. For example, MODFLOW 6 could be compiled using Intel compilers instead of the default GNU compilers with the script listed above by specifying:
python mymf6script.py -fc ifort -cc icc
When pymake is installed, a make-program (or make-program.exe for Windows) program is installed. make-program can
be used to build MODFLOW 6, MODFLOW-2005, MODFLOW-NWT, MODFLOW-USG, MODFLOW-USG Transport, MODFLOW-LGR, MODFLOW-2000,
MODPATH 6, MODPATH 7, VS2DT, MT3DMS, MT3D-USGS, SEAWAT, and SUTRA. The MODFLOW 6 shared library and the ZONEBUDGET
programs for MODFLOW 6, MODFLOW-2005 and MODFLOW-USG can be built as well, and the utility programs CRT, Triangle and
GRIDGEN. make-program downloads the distribution file (requires an internet connection), unzips the file, sets the
pymake settings required to build the program, and builds it with meson. Optional pymake command line arguments can be
used to customize the build (-fc, -cc, --fflags, etc.). For example, MODFLOW 6 could be built using intel
compilers and an O3 optimization level by specifying:
make-program mf6 -fc=ifort --fflags='-O3'
