cosmosis / Ubuntu Install

Installing under Ubutu 18.04 and 20.04

These instructions have worked for us before under ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04:

# install dependencies with apt - you may need to use "sudo" for these
apt-get update

# Annoyingly this command will stop in the middle to ask what time zone you are in
apt-get install gcc g++ gfortran wget make python3-dev pkg-config curl libcfitsio-dev libfftw3-dev   git  libgsl-dev  python3-pip libpng16-16 libxft2 libpangoft2-1.0-0    libfreetype6-dev libhdf5-dev libopenblas-dev libbz2-dev python3-mpi4py


# get the cosmosis repos
git clone -b develop https://bitbucket.org/joezuntz/cosmosis
cd cosmosis
git clone -b develop https://bitbucket.org/joezuntz/cosmosis-standard-library

# install python dependencies - again, might need sudo but I am not sure
pip install -r config/requirements.txt

# not required but switches on OpenMP which makes lots of things faster
export COSMOSIS_OMP=1

# you have to do this command whenever you start a new terminal and want to run cosmosis
source config/setup-cosmosis-ubuntu

# This is only necessary if your python command is not already aliased to python3
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3 10

# build - takes a few minutes
make

# test - runs multinest
mpirun -n 2 cosmosis --mpi demos/demo9.ini

# test - run DES Y1 likelihood
cosmosis examples/des-y1/params.ini
