Error using PackageCompiler for Gadfly

New to Julia
1

Following the instructions here to build a system image with Gadfly: Home · Gadfly.jl

I ran into a strange error saying PackageCompiler was not found despite having just run using PackageCompiler. Any idea how to troubleshoot? I could reinstall Julia from scratch, but I haven’t customized much yet, so it seems strange to have a bad build already.

I don’t use JuliaPro so I’m guessing here. The default directory when you dev a package is ~/.julia/dev/ (see Pkg docs), but JuliaPro is using a different directory. You might need to change the environment variable JULIA_PKG_DEVDIR (see Julia docs for general info on environment variables) . However an easier solution for Julia and JuliaPro might be don’t use dev, but instead do:

]add PackageCompiler#master

Does that work? If so, can change in the Gadfly docs.

I tried it, but with seemingly the same error. I’ll try a clean install of Julia next without JuliaPro, to see if that makes a difference.

I uninstalled Julia and JuliaPro, deleted my .julia and .juilia-pro folders. Installed the current release (1.2) fresh, and I had two problems:

  1. For some reason ]add Gadfly failed, and I had to do import Pkg; Pkg.add("Gadfly") instead.
  2. import PackageCompiler; PackageCompiler.compile_package("Gadfly", force=false) failed, but this time because of some problem between Gadfly and CSV.

I am really confused and I am not sure how to get a clean start. Any suggestions?

Full output from a fresh install of Julia

(v1.2) pkg> ?add
  add pkg[=uuid] [@version] [#rev] ...

  Add package pkg to the current project file. If pkg could refer to multiple different packages, specifying uuid
  allows you to disambiguate. @version optionally allows specifying which versions of packages to add. Version
  specifications are of the form @1, @1.2 or @1.2.3, allowing any version with a prefix that matches, or ranges
  thereof, such as @1.2-3.4.5. A git revision can be specified by #branch or #commit.

  If a local path is used as an argument to add, the path needs to be a git repository. The project will then track
  that git repository just like it would track a remote repository online.

I’m also confused, ]add Gadfly should just work. You might need to delete the directory C:\Users\carlm\AppData\Local\Julia-1.2.0 (Julia shouldn’t think that Gadfly is a directory there). Also test if Gadfly works first (using Gadfly) before trying PackageCompiler. For PackageCompiler, you need to do either ]dev PackageCompiler or ]add PackageCompiler#master, which I don’t see in your last attempt.

6

The Pkg REPL mode accepts paths to git repos as arguments (it says this in the help you printed). So C:\Users\carlm\AppData\Local\Julia-1.2.0 must have been your working directory and you have a Gadfly directory in that folder. Pkg attempted to add that directory ( Info: resolving package identifier `Gadfly` as a directory at `C:\Users\carlm\AppData\Local\Julia-1.2.0\Gadfly), but failed since it is not a git repo.

Pkg.add only accepts registered package names by default, so that is why that specific command succeeded.

You’re right. Somehow a Gadfly directory got created. I deleted that folder as well as any other Julia looking folders, and installed JuliaPro again. I retried the steps from before with PackageCompiler#master, and now I get an error related to CSV. For some reason it appears to be looking in a C:\Users\julia\ directory which doesn’t exist:

 - Run `Pkg.instantiate()` to install all recorded dependencies.

At this point, I’ve mostly given up. I cannot figure out either where the error is or how my setup is somehow broken.

If you have any advice for how to get a clean start I’m still up for another try.

i just got Gadfly to compile using PackageCompilerX using:

]activate gadflycompile
]add Gadfly
]add https://github.com/JuliaComputing/PackageCompilerX.jl.git
create_sysimage(:Gadfly, sysimage_path="GadflySysImage.so", precompile_execution_file=".julia/dev/Gadfly/test/runtests.jl")

note that PackageCompileX reauires julia 1.3.1.
