Installing Chapel using Spack
To get started with the Chapel Spack package:
- Install the Spack package manager on your system, if it isn't already there.
- To customize the Chapel installation, use the variants of the
Chapel Spack package
as opposed to the normal
CHPL_*environment variables. Most settings described in Chapel's documentation can be set using variants of the Chapel Spack package. - Install the Chapel package, specifying any variants desired. For example, to
also install the chpldoc tool, use:
spack install chapel+chpldoc
