This guide is for someone who would like to run a simulation with current library and packaging.

Step-by-step guide

1. How to create a working folder

1. get the current working version of gm_sim_pkg by using git clone:
   $ git clone git@github.com:ucgmsim/gm_sim_pkg.git
2. download the lastest package from the FTP server:
   $ download script and ftpserver
3. Go to the location where you cloned gm_sim_pkg, and use the install.sh to install the package just downloaded:
   $ ./install.sh gmsim_pack_latest.tar.gz event_date event_location event_magnitude
   e.g. $ ./install.sh gmsim_pack_latest.tar.gz 20100904 Darfield 7.1
4. Follow the instruction shown on screen to create required Models and files.

2. How to create a Velocity Model

1. Go to the VM directory that instruction has provided
   e.g. $ cd /home/jonney/20100904_Darfield_m7p1_201705181350/VM
2. Create the config file that is needed for generating a Velocity Model
   $ config_vm.py magnitude centroid_Depth Latitude Longitude
   e.g. $ config_vm.py 7.1  46.00 172.3 -43.6
3. Edit the parameter file to your requirements with prefered editor
   e.g. $ vim params_vel.py
4. If you have edited the params_vel.py, please run test_vm_params.py
   $ test_vm_params.py
5. Run make_vm.sh to create the Velocity Model
   $ make_vm.sh
6. Follow the instruction given on the screen to provide a path to a admin.
   
   

3. How to create Rupture Model (Source)

1. Go to the Src directory that instruction has provided
   e.g. $ cd /home/jonney/20100904_Darfield_m7p1_201705181350/Src
2. Create the config file that is needed for generating a Rupture Model
   $ config_src.py type
   e.g. $ config_src.py 2
3. Go to the folder provided by instrutions
   e.g. $ cd /home/jonney/20100904_Darfield_m7p1_201705181350/Src/Model/20100904_Darfield_m7p1/t2_103245_20170518_175214
4. Edit the setSrfParams.py
   note: every variables with #!!!PLEASE SPECIFY!!!# must be provided
5. Create the Model using make_src.sh
   e.g. $ make_src.sh
6. Follow the instruction given on the screen to provide a path to a admin.

4. How to create observation files

note: you can skip this part if you are running for a future event (not yet happened)

1. Go to the Obs directory that instruction has provided
   e.g. $ cd /home/jonney/20100904_Darfield_m7p1_201705181350/GM/Obs
2. Create the config file that is needed
   $ config_obs.py geoNet_ftp_url
   e.g. $ config_obs.py ftp://ftp.geonet.org.nz/strong/processed/Proc/2010/09_Sep/2010-09-04_045556/Vol1/data/
3. Run make_obs.sh to generate all the files
   e.g. $ make_obs.sh
4. Follow the instruction given on the screen to provide a path to a admin.

5. How to setup the simulation

1. After admin tells you that all files are uploaded to Fitzroy, Run setup_remote.sh
   $ setup_remote.sh username
   e.g $ setup_remote.sh jonney
2. Copy the path provided, it will be the path for your simulation on Fitzroy
