Warning
With newer versions of MTUQ, the same installation procedure works for Macs as for other computers. Thus, the following modified procedure may no longer be necessary (though it should still continue to work).
Modified installation procedure for Apple M1 and Apple M2 Macs¶
Newer Mac computers use proprietary Apple processors based on the ARM64 architecture.
To install MTUQ on ARM64 systems, create a conda virtual environment:
conda create -n mtuq python=3
Download the MTUQ source code:
git clone https://github.com/uafgeotools/mtuq.git
cd mtuq
Install MTUQ in editable mode:
conda activate mtuq
conda env update --file env_arm64.yaml
Unpack seismic waveforms used by examples:
bash ./data/examples/unpack.bash
bash ./data/tests/unpack.bash
Finally, install PyGMT:
conda install 'pygmt=0.9'
Note
Users may receive the following Instaseis warning:
UserWarning: Please don’t install from a tarball. Use the proper pypi release or install from git.
In fact, env_arm64.yaml does install Instaseis from git, and the above message can be ignored.
Note
If linux-aarch64 or osx-arm64 builds are ever added to the Instaseis conda-forge channel, the above workaround may become unnecessary.
