First I installed Macports and HDF5 with
sudo port install hdf5
having the base MacOS environment activated (as default in the terminal)
The error persisted

Then I installed HDF5 using homebrew having the base MacOS environment activated (as default in the terminal) following this post. The error persisted.

Then I installed HDF5 with conda having the base env activated
% conda install -c anaconda hdf5
But the error persisted

I've tried, in R

Sys.setenv(HDF5_DIR = "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0")
Sys.setenv(HDF5_LIBRARIES = "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/lib")
remotes::install_github("bnprks/BPCells")

To no avail

What else could I try?
Thank you in advance for your time

  • Your main tool for affecting the compilation setup is by changing the ~/.R/Makevars file -- I have not had success using Sys.setenv to set environment variables for R installations. In particular, you should look at setting the CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and maybe LDFLAGS in the Makevars file.
  • If you have installed hdf5 through homebrew or macports, I would probably try installing with your conda environment deactivated since you won't be relying on dependencies installed through conda.

It looks like you have already identified the directories containing the hdf5 headers (hfd5.h is presumably in /opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/include) and dynamic libraries (/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/lib). Therefore, I'd try putting the following in your ~/.R/Makevars file:

CFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/include
CXXFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/include
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/lib

Then with those changes and conda deactivated, try installing BPCells.

If that continues to not work, there's a newly added debugging tool to help get more error diagnostics from the installation process. On the terminal, run export BPCELLS_DEBUG_INSTALL=true on the command line before starting R on the command line and running remotes::install_github("bnprks/BPCells"). This will print out the commands the installer runs to check for the hdf5 libraries, as well as any error messages printed out during the test compilations.

To help make these problems less common I just tried making a fix in 5d9e78c, which will also try to use h5cc -show and h5cc -showconfig to try to automatically infer the required compiler flags.

If h5cc -show prints something for you in the terminal, you might try just re-installing with no special configuration set to see if this fix works for you.

(p.s. if you still are ending up with issues, could you let me know your MacOS version and the compiler version you're using?)

Thank you for your reply, I spotted some mistakes I made and tried again, though without sucess

When trying to manually modify .R/Makevars with a text editor I realized that the file simply didn't exist. So I:
-Uninstalled hdf5 with homebrew
-Deactivated the base conda environment
-Installed hdf5 with homebrew
-Confirmed hdf5 installation directory

~ % brew info llvm

It looks like the debug log didn't quite come through properly. When you run export BPCELLS_DEBUG_INSTALL=true, you then need to run R and remotes::install_github() in the same terminal. It should print out a bunch of lines starting with "+", interspersed with some program output. That said, I have a few ideas from the information you've provided

  1. I see you're on an ARM Mac. In issue cannot install BPcells on ARM mac- cannot find hdf5 #14, it seems that just using the homebrew-provided hdf5 is likely sufficient, and you are unlikely to need the llvm from homebrew as well.
    • I would try removing the CC and CXX entries from your Makevars
  2. Based on the log you provided, it seems that your compilation used a conda hdf5 install, rather than homebrew as you intended. It's not entirely clear to me why this is happening. You might try removing the CC and CXX entries as I mentioned, or simply deactivating conda in your terminal prior to running R and remotes::install_github(). This will prevent the installation from picking up the conda version of hdf5 at least. Otherwise, double-check CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS
  3. This error "Unable to compile program with C++17 std::filesystem." typically only shows up on older Intel Macs, so I'm not quite sure of the cause. I know mixups between ARM and x86 binaries can happen on ARM Macs as some programs still use Rosetta 2

Hopefully some of that is useful.

If not, please retry the export BPCELLS_DEBUG_INSTALL=true as I described, deactivate conda in the same terminal, then run R and provide the (much more verbose) debug log.

Alright, another attempt:

-deleted the " .R/" directory and created it again without the initial blank space, then created the Makevars file and edited it, also adding the .txt extension, following this post:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5891365/mac-os-x-doesnt-allow-to-name-files-starting-with-a-dot-how-do-i-name-the-hta/51788836#51788836

-My Makevars looks like this now

CFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/include
CXXFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/include
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/lib

-Opened the terminal, conda deactivate

-Checked pkg config

~ % pkg-config hdf5 --cflags --libs
Package hdf5 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `hdf5.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'hdf5' found

-Rechecked that hdf5 is installed with homebrew

-There is no pkgconfig directory in /opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/lib

libhdf5_hl.310.dylib

-Following chatbot instructions

sudo mkdir -p /opt/homebrew/lib/pkgconfig
sudo nano /opt/homebrew/lib/pkgconfig/hdf5.pc

-Then copied and pasted this in the file

prefix=/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: hdf5
Description: Hierarchical Data Format 5 (HDF5)
Version: 1.14.0

Libs: -L${libdir} -lhdf5
Cflags: -I${includedir}

-and save the file by pressing Ctrl+X, then Y, and finally Enter.

-now I can successfully run the command pkg-config hdf5 --cflags --libs

~ % pkg-config hdf5 --cflags --libs
-I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/include -L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/lib -lhdf5

So, within the terminal and with the base environment deactivated, I run R and try to install BPCells

Thanks for the debug log, that gave a lot of useful information.

It looks like your main problem is having a mixup between software for the x86_64 architecture, and software for the arm_64 architecture. x86_64 is emulated through Rosetta2 on ARM macs, while arm_64 is what the computer runs natively. Depending on whether your version of R is running as x86_64 or arm_64, you will need to match your compilers and libraries to that architecture. As I don't own one of these Macs personally, I don't have many useful tips on how to accomplish that, but it is definitely the source of the error in the log you just sent.

This issue has a bit of useful discussion about having mismatched x86_64/arm_64 when installing BPCells: #6. In that case, switching to running R natively in the arm_64 architecture helped solve the problem. If using x86_64 is important to you for some reason, then it appears my advice to use homebrew hdf5 over conda hdf5 is probably bad, though I've also noticed mac users having trouble with trying to install with hdf5 through conda

Some of my observations:

  1. In your error message, I notice this part in particular:

    + clang -mmacosx-version-min=10.13 tools/h5write.c -Wall -g -O2 -L/usr/local/lib -I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/include -L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/lib -lhdf5 -o tools/h5write
    tools/h5write.c:31:12: warning: variable 'status' set but
          not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
        herr_t status;
               ^
    1 warning generated.
    ld: warning: ignoring file /opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/lib/libhdf5.dylib, building for macOS-x86_64 but attempting to link with file built for macOS-arm64
    

    This bit "building for macOS-x86_64 but attempting to link with file built for macOS-arm64" is why you have the linker errors just below, and why I've diagnosed your main problem this way.

  2. Your makevars file must have exactly the name ~/.R/Makevars, and it cannot have a txt extension. These lines of the log indicate that R is not reading the CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS you have set, likely due to the file having the wrong name:

    ++ /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R CMD config CFLAGS
    + CFLAGS='-Wall -g -O2'
    ++ /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R CMD config CXXFLAGS
    + CXXFLAGS='-Wall -g -O2'
    ++ /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R CMD config LDFLAGS
    + LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
    
  3. Don't worry about making pkg-config work -- that's mainly for use on linux. BPCells has several options for how to try to find hdf5, so it's okay if pkgconfig doesn't work. I would recommend you don't bother making a hdf5.pc file manually. If you set up ~/.R/Makevars correctly, you should succeed after the line Testing hdf5 by compiling example program..., and you shouldn't ever get to the line Retrying with pkg-config flags....

  4. Similarly, it looks like the h5cc -show option doesn't yield useful compiler flags on your system, so don't worry too much about it and just focus on getting the method with ~/.R/Makevars to work.

  5. For future error logs, you can use a collapsible section as described here to take up a bit less scroll space

Sorry for the long logs, I was unaware of the collapsible section

Thank you for pointing out it was about the architecture. I decided to go from a clean slate, uninstalled R and Rstudio, then from the terminal deactivated the 'base' conda environment, installed R with homebrew, installed Rstudio with homebrew, created the .R directory mkdir -p ~/.R created the Makevars file touch ~/.R/Makevars edited the Makevars file from Rstudio file.edit("~/.Makevars")

CFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/include
CXXFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/include
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/hdf5/1.14.0/lib

installed BPCells from Rstudio remotes::install_github("bnprks/BPCells")
Installation was successful, haven't yet tested if everything works alright.

Thank you so much for your time

Great, I'm glad you've gotten it installed finally! I'd suggest walking through this tutorial if you want to check everything is working.

Just confirming comment above works for me too (as would @bnprks comment on May 4, 2023) with:
MacOS 14.3.1, M1
R version 4.3.2
hdf5 1.14.3 (via homebrew)
no conda active during installation steps
