Documentation Status

[!Warning]
This project is still in an early phase of development.

The python API is not yet stable, and some aspects of the schema for the blueprint will likely evolve.
Therefore whilst you are welcome to try out using the package, we cannot yet guarantee backwards compatibility.
We expect to reach a more stable version in Q1 2026.

To see which systems C-Star has been tested on so far, see Supported Systems.

Installation

Installation from GitHub

To obtain the latest development version, clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/CWorthy-ocean/C-Star.git
cd C-Star

Next, install one of the following conda environments, depending on whether you are working on a supported HPC system (environment management by Linux Environment Modules) or a generic machine like a laptop (environment managed by conda):

conda env create -f ci/environment_hpc.yml  # conda environment for supported HPC system
# conda env create -f ci/environment.yml  # conda environment for generic machine

Activate the conda environment:

conda activate cstar_env

Finally, install C-Star in the same environment:

pip install -e .

Run the tests

Before running the tests, you can activate the conda environment created in the previous section:

conda activate cstar_env

Check the installation of C-Star has worked by running the test suite

cd C-Star
pytest
