libphexfile

A storage format for multidimensional data

Description

Phexfile is a storage format for multidimensional data. libphexfile is an implementation of Phexfile that guarantees linear access time no matter how many dimensions are involved. It focuses on providing two-dimensional cuts through n-dimensional spaces. Its primary use is storing data created by quantum-chemical simulations that analyze changes in the potential energy surface of a molecule in respect to geometrical manipulations according to several coordinates.

Dependencies

  • glib-2.0
  • gobject-2.0
  • gio-2.0
  • json-glib-1.0

Building

Meson > 0.40.0 is the buildsystem for libphexfile. The build dependencies are the following:

  • valac > 0.32 - Vala compiler
  • valadoc - Vala documentation tool
  • g-ir-compiler - GObject introspection compiler (package gobject-introspection in ubuntu)
  • json-glib-dev - Dev headers for json-glib (package libjson-glib-dev in ubuntu)
  • libgirepository1.0-dev - Dev headers for gobject introspection

Ubuntu: sudo apt install valac valadoc gobject-introspection libjson-glib-dev libgirepository1.0-dev

Clone and build the library as follows:

git clone https://notabug.org/grindhold/libphexfile
mkdir libphexfile/build
cd libphexfile/build
meson
ninja

Add --prefix=/usr to install systemwide on ubuntu. Add --buildtype=release for a release build.

If you desire to install the library, execute as root:

ninja install
