OpenKIM Repository updated to KIM API V2

OpenKIM

Hi again,

You write on the web page that “All OpenKIM content (models, test, test results) on openkim.org has been migrated to the newly-released version 2.0.0-beta.3 of the KIM API package”

However, I do not get anything when I try to install all models:

    $ kim-api-v2-collections-management install user OpenKIM

    Success!

Should I not get a lot of models this way? I would use them to stress-test Asap.

Best regards

Jakob

Hi Jakob,

Thanks for your report. It turns out to be a bug in the collections management tool. This line in utils/collections-management.in lists @PROJECT_MAJOR_VERSION@ instead of the proper cmake variable name, @PROJECT_VERSION_MAJOR@. We’ll get this fix pushed soon, but you can also adjust this line yourself and then redo the cmake build/install of the KIM API. Or, if you prefer, you can just directly adjust the collections management tool (which is just a bash script) you’ve already installed by changing line 38 to read:

major_version=2

Apologies for the inconvenience,
Dan

Hi Dan,

Thank you very much. That did indeed fix it (patching the script manually).

Best regards

Jakob
