For some systems, preCICE is available in form of a pre-build package or a package recipe. This section lists systems and instructions on how to install these packages.
Ubuntu
You can download version-specific Ubuntu (Debian) packages from each GitHub release. To install, simply open it in your software center.
Alternatively, download & install it from the command line. For Ubuntu 20.04 (focal):
wget https://github.com/precice/precice/releases/download/v2.2.0/libprecice2_2.2.0_focal.deb
sudo apt install ./libprecice2_2.2.0_focal.deb
We support the latest two Ubuntu LTS versions, as well as the latest normal Ubuntu release. Change focal
to groovy
for 20.10, or to bionic
for 18.04.
Is a newer preCICE release out and we have not yet updated the above links? Please edit this page.
Arch Linux / Manjaro
We maintain a package in the Arch User Repository. Please have a look at the official AUR wiki page to find out how to install it.
Something else
For other systems you need to either use Spack or build from source.
