CSDMS wiki links

Software development and services

• CSDMS Best Practices for Software Development, a document (under construction) that Eric, Mariela, and I have been thinking about for a long time
• Test shell type
• Installing a Python distro for testing and development
  • Shorter Miniconda install instructions

BMI and componentization

• Instructions for adding a BMI to a model
• Turning a model into a CSDMS component

pymt

pymt is the Python Modeling Toolkit.

• The pymt landing page: https://csdms.github.io/pymt
• The pymt page on the CSDMS wiki: PyMT
• pymt documentation: https://pymt.readthedocs.io
• The pymt source on GitHub: https://github.com/csdms/pymt

CSDMS JupyterHub

The OpenEarthscape logo

• JupyterHub
• JupyterHubSignUp and JupyterHubGitHubSignUp
• JupyterHubUploadDownload

Dakota

I've set up a wiki page for all things Dakota.

Individual pages:

• Dakotathon wiki page
• The CSDMS model page for Dakotathon
• Configuring Dakota on beach
• Using Dakota on beach
• Building Dakota on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

There is a tool that is similar in concept to the CSDMS Dakota interface: https://github.com/wisdem/pyDAKOTA, but it's a bit different in what it provides.

PBS

The Permafrost Benchmark System.

• Main page: https://permamodel.github.io/pbs/
• DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1410621
• PBS executor on siwenna
• PBS server on diluvium
• PBS client on diluvium

WMT

The CSDMS Web Modeling Tool (WMT) can be found at https://csdms.colorado.edu/wmt.

General information:

• The CSDMS Web Modeling Tool
• The WMT 1.0 release announcement
• The WMT 1.1 release announcement

Using WMT:

• WMT Help
• WMT Tutorial

Developer notes for installing and configuring WMT:

• Installing a WMT executor
  • wmt-testing executor on siwenna
  • wmt-permafrost executor on siwenna
  • wmt-analyst executor on siwenna
  • wmt-hydrology executor on siwenna
  • wmt-testing executor on blanca
  • wmt-permafrost executor on blanca
  • wmt-analyst executor on blanca
  • wmt-hydrology executor on blanca
• Installing a WMT server
  • wmt-permafrost server on diluvium
  • wmt-analyst server on diluvium
  • wmt-hydrology server on diluvium
• Installing a WMT client
  • Build and deploy a WMT client
• Uncategorized WMT developer notes

Like Roger Zelazny's Amber, siwenna is the one true site of the WMT executors. All others are but shadows.

WMT source code:

• wmt-client
• wmt-server
• wmt-executor

We're using "WMT" and "PyMT", by analogy with NumPy and SciPy (but not Astropy). Eric and I were thinking earlier that we should use "wMT" and "pyMT" to emphasize that they're modeling tools.

MediaWiki and the Ask API

• Albert has written an article summarizing all the APIs available on the CSDMS wiki
• Main page navbar entries are here: MediaWiki:Sidebar
  • An idea for a reorg of the menu: NewWikiMenu
• An article on using the Ask API to access model metadata from the CSDMS wiki
• A table of Ask API examples
• An example of counting and listing all CSDMS members
• I've had to look up how to add a signature about 10 times already
• Text I can use on deprecated pages
• A landing page for the CSDMS Workbench, and a page for improving it: TmpWorkbench
• A landing page for the Babelizer
• A template for launching a model on EarthscapeHub: Template:LaunchModel
  • Use the template in a page: {{LaunchModel|model=terrainbento|link=https://rei.com}}

Run on EarthscapeHub

terrainbento is installed on EarthscapeHub, a set of JupyterHub instances managed by CSDMS.

Click this button:

Run on EarthscapeHub

to launch the terrainbento Jupyter notebook tutorials on the EarthscapeHub jupyter instance.

Note

There are two conditions on running the terrainbento notebooks:

1. Access to the EarthscapeHub jupyter instance is controlled through GitHub credentials. If you don't already have access to jupyter, please see these instructions on how to to sign up and sign in.
2. Once you've signed in to jupyter, be sure to select the "CSDMS" kernel from the JupyterLab kernel picker in order to run the notebooks.

If you encounter any problems using EarthscapeHub, please contact us through the CSDMS Help Desk.
