This repository archives the legacy Haskell implementation of fpm and is not under active development.

Fortran Package Manager - Haskell

Fortran Package Manager (fpm) is a package manager and build system for Fortran. Its key goal is to improve the user experience of Fortran programmers. It does so by making it easier to build your Fortran program or library, run the executables, tests, and examples, and distribute it as a dependency to other Fortran projects. Fpm's user interface is modeled after Rust's Cargo, so if you're familiar with that tool, you will feel at home with fpm. Fpm's long term vision is to nurture and grow the ecosystem of modern Fortran applications and libraries.

Building fpm-haskell

Install Haskell

To install Haskell Stack, follow these instructions, users without superuser (admin) permissions should follow the manual installation procedure.

Download this repository

git clone https://github.com/fortran-lang/fpm-haskell
cd fpm

Build and Test fpm

Build fpm using:

stack build

To test:

stack test

To install:

stack install

On Linux, the above command installs fpm to ${HOME}/.local/bin.

Usage

Creating a new project

Creating a new fpm project is as simple as running the command fpm new project_name. This will create a new folder in your current directory with the following contents and initialized as a git repository.

• fpm.toml with your project's name and some default standard meta-data
• README.md with your project's name
• .gitgnore
• src/project_name.f90 with a simple hello world subroutine
• app/main.f90 (if --with-executable flag used) a program that calls the subroutine
• test/main.f90 (if --with-test flag used) an empty test program

Building your Fortran project with fpm

fpm understands the basic commands:

• fpm build - build your library, executables and tests
• fpm run - run executables
• fpm test- run tests

The command fpm run can optionally accept the name of the specific executable to run, as can fpm test; like fpm run specifc_executable. Command line arguments can also be passed to the executable(s) or test(s) with the option --args "some arguments".

See additional instructions in the Packaging guide.
