This is a guide to setting up Lmod (lua environment modules) on a CentOS system. I’ve used a similar procedure to set them up on a Mac, as well, so this is still a useful guide to the workings of Lmod if you use a different system; mostly paths will change. On a Mac, you’ll want to install
Lmod
from the science
tap in brew
.
There are several good pages covering environment modules (TCL version), but not many that use the newer Lua syntax. This document aims to fill that roll.
