[325] "zstd"

These are wrapped up as :star::star::star: modules :star::star::star:.

The original list prior to mid-November 2022 is given below1.

Usage

We illustrate with pspp. A brief description of a module is available with

module help ceuadmin/pspp

and the module is loaded and graphical user interface (GUI)2 started with

module load ceuadmin/pspp
psppire

for version 2.0.1. Once the job is done, one can restore the previous environment with

module unload ceuadmin/pspp

Note that module add/rm is equivalent to module load/unload.

Some modules are based on compiled Java (.jar) which can be called directly but it is handy to use preset environment variables, e.g.,

module load ceuadmin/picard
java -jar ${PICARD_HOME}/picard.jar --help

A full list of module subcommands is available with module help as detailed here for 3.2.9 – cclake uses version 3.2.10 (2012-12-21) while icelake uses 4.5.2 (2020-07-30). In particular, module whatis ceuadmin/ensembl-vep indicates usage regarding build37/build38 setup for the loftee plugin used in loss of function (LoF) annotation.

CEU users

CEU users will be able to use ANNOVAR, ensembl-vep, OpenMS (ceuadmin/OpenMS/3.4.0 now available for CSD3 users), phenoscanner (MySQL server yet to resolve), polyphen, KentUtils/MAGMA/Pascal/VEGASV2/fgwas/locuszoom linking internal projects/personal space (additional requests need to be made).

R

A large collection of R packages (1,772 as of 15/7/2025, esp. with availability of major machine learning packages) is linked with the latest R distribution, 4.5.1; there are also packages (CRAN: DescTools, Rfast, Rfast2, rcompanion, rms – which requires stringi herein, riskRegression – which requires rms; Bioconductor: BiocSingular, DropletUtils, DSS, beachmat, bsseq, scater, scuttle) under 4.5.1-gcc11. Earlier versions such as sf, terra, riskRegression, rms, scater, scuttle, SKAT were removed when they appear for 4.5.1-gcc11. For Rserve 1.8-15, openssl/3.3.0-dev appears working.

Note that with recent work on gdal/3.0.4, sf 1.0-21 has been compiled enabling raster 3.6-32, stars 0.6-8, terra 1.8-50 (not 1.8-54 but it appears working with module gdal/3.7.0-icl), maptiles 0.10.0 / tmap 4.1. Moreover, rgdal has been replaced with sf and withdrawn from CRAN according to information there.

It is easy to point to them, e.g.,

export HPC_WORK=/rds/user/$USER/hpc-work/
export RDS=/rds/project/jmmh2/rds-jmmh2-public_databases/software
export R_LIBS=${RDS}/R:${RDS}/R-gcc11

or possible to have your own installations based on these, e.g., through creation of a modified Makefile with altered prefix followed by make install -f <modified Makefile>.

The following script tests for loading of dplyr:

export RDS=/rds/project/jmmh2/rds-jmmh2-public_databases/software
export PATH=${PATH}
export R_LIBS=${RDS}:${RDS}/R
Rscript -e 'suppressMessages(library(dplyr));cat("OK!\n")'

It appears clumsy to do these every time, so an attempt is made to have them in a module, namely

module load ceuadmin/R/latest
which R
echo $R_LIBS
Rscript -e 'suppressMessages(library(dplyr));cat("OK!\n")'

Inside R, one can check paths with .libPaths(). It is also handy to re-install the small number of packages in R-gcc11 with install.packages(dir()) at its folder but BiocManager::install(c("beachmat", "BiocSingular", "DropletUtils", "scater", "scuttle")).

Python

There are many sources,

  1. miniconda37/. Collections for Miniconda3 which is appropriate for a variety of software including its distribution of R.
  2. py2.7/. Collections for Python 2.7.
  3. py38/. Collections for Python 3.8.
  4. py3.11/. Collections for Python 3.11.

One can use source command to load/install packages, e.g., source ${RDS}/py38/bin/activate. A list of modules can be checked with

conda list
pip list

for Minicoda and Python, respectively.

Non-CEU users

Most software are available for all CSD3 users, only limited by software with excessive size / reference data – which ideally will be available from /rds/project/jmmh2/software but now /rds/project/jmmh2/rds-jmmh2-public_databases/software as a trade-off. These can largely be seen as sources which are used to build the reoository given above.

Please drop an email to jhz22@medschl.cam.ac.uk for access.

Module creation

The following example shows how to set up a module,

#!/bin/bash

mkdir tmp-xz
cd tmp-xz
wget http://tukaani.org/xz/xz-5.2.2.tar.gz
tar zxvf xz-5.2.2.tar.gz
cd xz-5.2.2
mkdir -p /usr/local/Cluster-Apps/xz/5.2.2
export PREFIX=/usr/local/Cluster-Apps/xz/5.2.2
./configure --prefix=$PREFIX
make
make check
sg swinst 'make install'

cat << 'EOL' > /usr/local/Cluster-Config/modulefiles/xz/5.2.2
#%Module -*- tcl -*-
##
## modulefile
##
proc ModulesHelp { } {

  puts stderr "\tXZ Utils is free general-purpose data compression software with a high compression ratio.\n"
  puts stderr "\tInstalled under: /usr/local/Cluster-Apps/xz/5.2.2
     Hompage:http://tukaani.org/xz/"

}

module-whatis "xz free general-purpose data compression"

conflict xz
set               root                  /usr/local/Cluster-Apps/xz/5.2.2
prepend-path      PATH                  $root/bin
prepend-path      MANPATH               $root/man
prepend-path      LD_LIBRARY_PATH       $root/lib
prepend-path      LIBRARY_PATH          $root/lib
prepend-path      FPATH                 $root/include
prepend-path      CPATH                 $root/include
prepend-path      INCLUDE               $root/include
setenv            XZ_HOME               $root
EOL

The module is made visible through environment variable MODULEPATH. Note that there will be permission issue for a user, however, to make changes to /usr/local/Cluster-Apps.

The module files are defined at /usr/local/Cluster-Config/modulefiles/ceuadmin. Most software stay with gcc/6 due to many dependencies of built modules; when required it can be enabled with module load gcc/6; however packages could also require libgfortran.so.5 as in gcc/9 – as a compromise one can amend .bashrc to include lines such as export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/software/master/gcc/9/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
