Suggesting changes to the modulefile build_macos_gnu.lua instead of adding conditionals to devbuild.sh
Lines 59-65 of build_macos_gnu.lua to be changed to a single line adding a flag to the existing ones (note "+=" instead of "=", and spaces before "L" and after "lib")

export LDFLAGS+=" -L$MPI_ROOT/lib "

Another change that is needed for build_macos_gnu.lua in lines 49-50:

setenv("CMAKE_Platform", "macosx.gnu")
--setenv("CMAKE_Platform", "macosx.intel")

instead of "macos.<compiler>".
The ufs-weather-model expects "macosx.<compiler>" as a platform name, and it has ufs-weather-model/cmake/configure_macosx.gnu.cmake and configure_macosx.intel.cmake platform-dependent configuration files.

  1. export LDFLAGS+=" -L$MPI_ROOT/lib " does not work in a Lua module file. Note that it is a shell command.
  2. If we change the platform name inside the module file, build_macos_gnu.lua, the file name should also be changed to build_macosx_gnu.lua to be consistent. And all other scripts that mentioned build_macos_gnushould also be changed.

It will be involved too many modifications and is error prone. I prefer to leaving it to the next major version update? My current modification is not perfect, but it requests the minimal changes that make the script devbuild.sh work on the macOS platform.

@ywangwof -
Thank you for your responses!

  1. Yes, indeed this will not work as in the bash shell. Even if we use Lua syntax, such as
    append_path (”LDFLAGS”, “ -L$MPI_ROOT/lib ", “ ”)
    it will not work either, because the $MPI_ROOT could only be expanded after the modulefile is loaded; it is not yet available inside the modulefile.

Your solution to modify devbuild.sh is then a good option. My only suggestion is to use a conditional based on a $PLATFORM variable, because we may have other compilers Intel, Clang. The line 452 in devbuild.sh then would be:
if [[ "${PLATFORM}" == "macos" ]]; then

  1. Agree. If a platform+compiler naming for the SRW differs from that for the UFS-WM, but still works for the SRW system, it's OK to leave it unchanged.

  2. Modulefiles build_macos_gnu.lua may still need a correction to the syntax for the export LDFLAGS string, suggesting:

if mode() == "load" then
  LmodMsgRaw([===[
   Please export env. variable LDFLAGS after the module is successfully loaded:
        export LDFLAGS+=" -L$MPI_ROOT/lib "
  ]===])
end

The line 63 needs to be changed to:

export LDFLAGS+=" -L$MPI_ROOT/lib "

there are extra characters that need to be removed. They were related to a message when written in a bash script, and the conversion to *.lua format not done properly.
