Using the SeqAn Build System

We describe the SeqAn build system from three perspectives:

  • The app user who just wants to compile a couple of SeqAn applications from the SeqAn SVN repository.
  • The SeqAn release manager who wants to create SeqAn releases.
  • The SeqAn developer who wants to write his own applications using the SeqAn build system.

But first, we will give a short overview of the repository and how versioning applications and the whole project works.

Repository Structure and Versioning

The SVN repository follows the classical structure with /trunk, /branches, /tags directories. Below the trunk, project is separated into the core and extras part. Each of these parts contains apps and library modules as well as tests and demos for the library modules.

Note that there is no separation between apps and the library.

When performing a library release, the /trunk directory is copied to /tags with a name like seqan-release-1.4. Note that this creates a tag for both the library and the apps. When a bug is found then the tag has to be copied to /branches where bugs can be fixed. When the version has been corrected, it can be tagged again.

Independently of this, an app release is performed by copying the /trunk directory to /branches if stabilization is required or directly tagged, e.g. as /tags/masai-0.6.0 for the app Masai in version 0.6.0.

Note that tags are final and a new tag has to be created if any code is to be changed.

User Perspective

The user can checkout /trunk or a copy thereof (e.g. /tags/masai-0.7.0 or /branches/seqan-release-1.4) to his local computer. The user could then proceed as the developer (see below) but there are dedicated modes in the SeqAn build system for easier installation. A user might also want to install the library to an include folder. We will look at both use cases.

User App Installation

Let us first consider a user wanting to build RazerS 3 from the trunk as the developer would.

~ # svn co http://svn.seqan.de/seqan/trunk seqan-trunk
~ # mkdir -p seqan-trunk-build/Release
~ # cd seqan-trunk-build/Release
Release # cmake ../../seqan-trunk
Release # make razers3

This will check out the SeqAn trunk and create the binary razers3 in the directory ~/seqan-trunk-build/Release/bin.

However, it will be more convenient for the user to build the app and then install it, for example to ~/local/razers3:

~ # svn co http://svn.seqan.de/seqan/trunk seqan-trunk
~ # mkdir -p seqan-trunk-build/razers3
~ # cd seqan-trunk-build/razers3
razers3 # cmake ../../seqan-trunk -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/local/razers3 \
            -DSEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM=APP:razers3
razers3 # make install

The user could install a released version of the RazerS 3 program by using the URL http://svn.seqan.de/seqan/tags/razers3-3.2.0, for example.

After executing this, the user will find the following structure in ~/local/razers3, including the example files and documentation.

razers3 # tree ~/local/razers3
/home/${USER}/local/razers3/
├── bin
│   └── razers3
├── example
│   ├── genome.fa
│   ├── reads2.fa
│   └── reads.fa
├── LICENSE
└── README

User Library Installation

The user could also want to install the library headers only. The checkout step is the same as above, but he has to create a new build directory and execute CMake with different parameters. The library will be installed to ~/local/seqan.

~ # svn co http://svn.seqan.de/seqan/trunk seqan-trunk
~ # mkdir -p seqan-trunk-build/library_only
~ # cd seqan-trunk-build/library_only
library_only # cmake ../../seqan-trunk -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/local/seqan \
                 -DSEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM=SEQAN_RELEASE_LIBRARY
library_only # make docs
library_only # make install

The user can now find the SeqAn library in ~/local/seqan/include:

library_only # tree ~/local/seqan/
/home/${USER}/local/seqan/
├── include
│   └── seqan
│       ├── align
│       │   ├── align_base.h

SeqAn Release Manager Perspective

The SeqAn release manager wants to create release packages of (1) individual apps from the SeqAn repository, (2) create a SeqAn library release that includes the library and documentation, and (3) create a SeqAn apps release that contains the built apps. The manager wants to build the binary packages for different platforms, e.g. 32 bit and 64 bit Linux and Windows, Mac Os X, etc.

We will give examples for Unixoid operating systems.

Note that the packaging described below can be automatized. App and project releases can simply be tagged in the Subversion repository. A script that runs nightly can then pick up new tags from the Subversion repository and create binary packages for them. This can also automatize nightly builds on different platforms without much work for the release manager.

Packaging Individual Apps

The release manager would check out an app in a specific revision, e.g. through a tag or the trunk version:

~ # svn co http://svn.seqan.de/seqan/tags/masai-0.6.1 masai-0.6.1
~ # mkdir masai-0.6.1-build
~ # cd masai-0.6.1-build
masai-0.6.1-build # cmake ../masai-0.6.1 -DSEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM=APP:masai \
                      -DSEQAN_APP_VERSION=0.6.1
masai-0.6.1-build # make package

On Unix, this will create a Tarball (.tar.bz2) and a ZIP file with the binaries, documentation, and example files:

masai-0.6.1-build # ls -l masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64.*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 1094198 Nov 20 13:36 masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 1243428 Nov 20 13:36 masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64.zip

The packages have the following structure:

masai-0.6.1-build # tar tjf masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64/bin/masai_mapper
masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64/bin/masai_indexer
masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64/bin/masai_output_se
masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64/bin/masai_output_pe
masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64/README
masai-0.6.1-Linux-x86_64/LICENSE

Packaging Library Releases

Packaging the library and documentation is quite simple. Note that we have to build the documentation using make docs before calling make package because of a bug in CMake that prevents us from doing it automatically.

The version is automatically detected from the constants in the seqan/version.h header. There also is a marker variable that marks whether the checked out repository version has a version number or whether it is a pre-release of the next version.

~ # svn co http://svn.seqan.de/seqan/trunk seqan-trunk
~ # mkdir -p seqan-trunk-build/release_library
~ # cd seqan-trunk-build/release_library
release_library # cmake ../../seqan-trunk -DSEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM=SEQAN_RELEASE_LIBRARY
release_library # make docs
release_library # make package

On Linux, this will build three archives:

release_library # ls -l seqan-library-pre1.4.0-Linux.*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 3367876 Nov 20 13:57 seqan-library-pre1.4.0-Linux.deb
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 2357465 Nov 20 13:57 seqan-library-pre1.4.0-Linux.tar.bz2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 5953550 Nov 20 13:57 seqan-library-pre1.4.0-Linux.zip

Let us look at the contents of one (they all contain the same files):

release_library # dpkg --contents seqan-library-pre1.4.0-Linux.deb

...

Packaging All Apps

It is simple to create a SeqAn Apps release:

~ # svn co http://svn.seqan.de/seqan/trunk seqan-trunk
~ # mkdir -p seqan-trunk-build/release_apps
~ # cd release_apps
release_apps # cmake ../../seqan-trunk -DSEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM=SEQAN_RELEASE_APPS
release_apps # make package
release_apps # ls -l seqan-apps-pre1.4.0-Linux*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 532 Nov 20 14:22 seqan-apps-pre1.4.0-Linux.deb
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP  42 Nov 20 14:22 seqan-apps-pre1.4.0-Linux.tar.bz2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP  22 Nov 20 14:22 seqan-apps-pre1.4.0-Linux.zip

The contents of the archives is as follows:

release_library # dpkg --contents seqan-apps-pre1.4.0-Linux.deb

Nightly Builds

It is also possible to create nightly builds of the library, all apps, or individual apps. Simply define the CMake variable SEQAN_NIGHTLY_RELEASE to TRUE on the command line. In the following examples, we skip the checkout step and simply show the CMake and build steps:

One App

masai-build # cmake ../masai-0.6.1 -DSEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM=APP:masai \
                      -DSEQAN_NIGHTLY_RELEASE=TRUE
masai-build # make package
masai-build # ls -l masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64.*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 1091927 Nov 20 14:11 masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 1241259 Nov 20 14:11 masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64.zip
masai-build # tar tjf masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64/bin/masai_mapper
masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64/bin/masai_indexer
masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64/bin/masai_output_se
masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64/bin/masai_output_pe
masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64/README
masai-20121120-Linux-x86_64/LICENSE

All Apps

release_apps # cmake ../../seqan-trunk -DSEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM=SEQAN_RELEASE_APPS \
                 -DSEQAN_NIGHTLY_RELEASE=TRUE
release_apps # make package
release_apps #  ls -l seqan-apps-20121120-*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 10232442 Nov 20 14:37 seqan-apps-20121120-Linux.deb
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP  8847407 Nov 20 14:37 seqan-apps-20121120-Linux.tar.bz2
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 10266596 Nov 20 14:37 seqan-apps-20121120-Linux.zip

Library Only

release_library # cmake ../../seqan-trunk -DSEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM=SEQAN_RELEASE_LIBRARY \
                    -DSEQAN_NIGHTLY_RELEASE=TRUE
release_library # make docs
release_library # make package
release_library # ls -l seqan-library-20121120-*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 3368034 Nov 20 14:07 seqan-library-20121120-Linux.deb

-rw-rw-r-- 1 USER GROUP 5955755 Nov 20 14:06 seqan-library-20121120-Linux.zip

SeqAn Developer Perspective

SeqAn developers want to develop their own applications using SeqAn. When they want to use the SeqAn build system, they can follow these instructions to (1) setup their sandbox, (2) setup their apps in their sandbox and later core/extras, and (3) create releases of the applications.

Creating Sandboxes

Creating sandboxes is easy with the util/skel.py script (also see Using The Code Generator).

seqan # ./util/bin/skel.py repository sandbox/my_sandbox

We will not go into detail on the structure of generated CMakeLists.txt files.

Creating Apps

Simply use the util/skel.py script (also see Using The Code Generator).

seqan-trunk # ./util/bin/skel.py app my_app sandbox/my_sandbox

This will generate a CMakeLists.txt file in sandbox/my_sandbox/apps/my_app. Since you will have to adjust the file to your project, let us have a look at the file in detail. You can look up details in the CMake documentation in case that some CMake functions are not clear to you.

The file starts out with a header describing where the file lives and what it is for. This is useful when having many CMakeLists.txt files open and you want to quickly identifyin the file in the current window.

# ===========================================================================
#                  SeqAn - The Library for Sequence Analysis
# ===========================================================================
# File: /sandbox/my_sandbox/apps/my_app/CMakeLists.txt
#
# CMakeLists.txt file for my_app.
# ===========================================================================

cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 2.8.2)
project (sandbox_my_sandbox_apps_my_app)
message (STATUS "Configuring sandbox/my_sandbox/apps/my_app")

Then comes the section that searches for the app’s dependencies. By default, the app only depends on the package SeqAn. By setting the variable SEQAN_FIND_DEPENDENCIES, we can configure which dependencies the call to find_package (SeqAn REQUIRED) will try to find. See the Using the FindSeqAn CMake Module for more details.

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Dependencies
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Search SeqAn and select dependencies.
set (SEQAN_FIND_DEPENDENCIES NONE)
find_package (SeqAn REQUIRED)

The call to find_package (SeqAn REQUIRED) will then set the following variables that we will then use below to add the correct parameters to the compiler and linker.

  • SEQAN_INCLUDE_DIRS: Required include directories for the headers. Pass to include_directories()
  • SEQAN_DEFINITIONS: Additional precompiler macros to pass to the compiler. Pass to add_definitions()
  • SEQAN_CXX_FLAGS: Additional C++ compiler flags. Extend CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS by this list.
  • SEQAN_LIBRARIES: The libraries to link against. Pass to target_link_libraries() for each target.

We then need one add_executable() call for each program executable that we want to build. We also need to link the libraries into the program.

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Build Setup
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Add CXX flags found by find_package(SeqAn).
set (CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS ${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} ${SEQAN_CXX_FLAGS})

# Add include directories.
include_directories (${SEQAN_INCLUDE_DIRS})

# Add definitions set by find_package(SeqAn).
add_definitions (${SEQAN_DEFINITIONS})

# Update the list of file names below if you add source files to your application.
add_executable (dfi dfi.cpp)

# Add dependencies found by find_package(SeqAn).
target_link_libraries (dfi ${SEQAN_LIBRARIES})

We then configure the app for installation. Note that this is a distinct step than configuring CPack for packaging. The following controls which files to copy when calling make install. CPack will use the result of make install for creating its packages.

We first call seqan_setup_install_vars() (to set the variable SEQAN_PREFIX_SHARE_DOC. This is required for installing documentation and example files to share/${PROGRAM_NAME} when building multiple apps and directly to the current directory . when building only one app.

The macro seqan_setup_install_vars is specific to the SeqAn build system.

The util/skel.py script will create files LICENSE and README for you. If you want to include additional files then you should use one of the given install() calls. Install documentation to ${SEQAN_PREFIX_SHARE_DOC} and examples to ${SEQAN_PREFIX_SHARE_DOC}/example.

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Installation
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Set variables for installing, depending on the selected build type.
if (NOT SEQAN_PREFIX_SHARE_DOC)
  seqan_setup_install_vars (dfi)
endif (NOT SEQAN_PREFIX_SHARE_DOC)

# Install dfi in ${PREFIX}/bin directory
install (TARGETS dfi
         DESTINATION bin)

# Install non-binary files for the package to "." for app builds and
# ${PREFIX}/share/doc/dfi for SeqAn release builds.
install (FILES LICENSE
               README
         DESTINATION ${SEQAN_PREFIX_SHARE_DOC})
#install (FILES example/example.txt
#         DESTINATION ${SEQAN_PREFIX_SHARE_DOC}/example)

Then, we can use the macro seqan_add_app_test() from the SeqAn build system to register app tests. If you want to add an app test for your program then simply uncomment the seqan_add_app_test() call and follow the instructions in Writing App Tests to write such an app tests.

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# App Test
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

#seqan_add_app_test(dfi)

Finally, we configure the application packaging system for building individual apps.

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# CPack Install
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

if (SEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM STREQUAL "APP:my_app")
  set (CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME "my_app")
  set (CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_SUMMARY "My App - Catch Summary")
  set (CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_MAINTAINER "Your Name <your.name@example.com>")
  set (CPACK_PACKAGE_VENDOR "SeqAn Team, FU Berlin")

  seqan_configure_cpack_app(my_app "My App")
endif (SEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM STREQUAL "APP:my_app")

Building Apps

Simply use CMake to generate project files for the whole SeqAn repository and your sandbox. Let us say that we want to build the app my_app in your sandbox:

~ # mkdir -p seqan-trunk-build/Release
~ # cd seqan-trunk-build/Release
Release # cmake ../../seqan-trunk
Release # make my_app

Note that the default build type is the Release mode. The binaries will be built with optimization and without debug symbols. To build apps with debug symbols and without optimization with Makefiles, use the CMake paraemter -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug. When using IDE files such as for Xcode, you can select the optimization state from within the IDE.

Release # cd ../..
~ # mkdir -p seqan-trunk-build/Debug
~ # cd seqan-trunk-build/Debug
Debug # cmake ../../seqan-trunk
Debug # make my_app

Windows Notes

The descriptions above apply to Linux/Mac systems. On Windows, things are only slightly different:

  • There are packages available that provide the svn.exe command line client or users might use the GUI client TortoiseSVN.
  • The mkdir command differs slightly (the -p parameter can be omitted).
  • Instead of using the backslash \ two split one command over two lines in the Command Prompt, we have to use the Windows equivalent ^.
  • The cmake command line program is also available for Windows.

The main difference is that when building with the Visual Studio tools, one does not use make for building applications. When developing, users can simply open the generated Visual Studio *.sln solution files and then use Visual Studio for building the applications. When packaging, users can use the msbuild command as described below.

As an example, we adapt the description of creating an application release for Masai on Windows.The next steps are typed into the Command Prompt (Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command).

C:\> svn co http://svn.seqan.de/seqan/tags/masai-0.6.1 masai-0.6.1
C:\> mkdir masai-0.6.1-build
C:\> cd masai-0.6.1-build
C:\masai-0.6.1-build> cmake ..\masai-0.6.1 -DSEQAN_BUILD_SYSTEM=APP:masai ^
                       -DSEQAN_APP_VERSION=0.6.1

So far, the only difference to the Unix descriptions is the using backslashes instead of forward slashes for paths. You can then open the generated seqan.sln file in C:\masai-0.6.1-build with Visual studio and build the packages from there.

Alternatively, msbuild can be used. This program is only available when using the Visual Studio Command Prompt. For Visual Studio 2010, you can start it through the start menu as follows: Start > Programs > Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 > Visual Studio Tools > Visual Studio Command Prompt 2010. For other Visual Studio versions, the path is similar. If you want 64 bit builds then you have to start Visual Studio x86 Win64 Command Prompt (2010).

C:\> cd masai-0.6.1-build
C:\masai-0.6.1-build> msbuild /p:Configuration=Release PACKAGE.vcxproj

This will create a ZIP file with the app build of Masai.

Note that you could also input the first part of commands from this example into the Visual Studio Command Prompt.

Using CUDA

To use cuda, simply insert the following section into your CMakeLists.txt behind the Dependencies section.

This consists of the following step:

  1. Find CUDA package
  2. If CUDA could not be found then stop.
  3. Disabling propagating host flags to the cuda compiler, some visual studio configuration.
  4. Removing the -pedantic flag from the compiler flags.
  5. Register .cu as the extension for C++ files, required for linking.
  6. Register the include directory for the cut (CUDA Toolkit) library.
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# CUDA Setup
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

# The CUDA setup is a bit verbose so it gets its own section.

# Search for CUDA.
find_package (CUDA)

# Stop here if we cannot find CUDA.
if (NOT CUDA_FOUND)
    message (STATUS "  CUDA not found, not building cuda_ex.")
    return ()
endif (NOT CUDA_FOUND)

# Set CUDA options.
set (CUDA_PROPAGATE_HOST_FLAGS OFF)
set (CUDA_ATTACH_VS_BUILD_RULE_TO_CUDA_FILE OFF)
# Remove -pedantic flag.
string (REGEX REPLACE "\\-pedantic" ""
        CUDA_CXX_FLAGS ${CUDA_NVCC_FLAGS} ${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS})

# Enable .cu as a CXX source file extension for linking.
list (APPEND CMAKE_CXX_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS "cu")
# Add CUT include directories for CUDA.
cuda_include_directories(${CUDA_CUT_INCLUDE_DIR})
