Dear All,

It was asked before. It is hoped that it does not hurt to ask again

Which of these advanced options should be seriously considered as real at this stage, post './configure' and pre 'make'

Please find appended below the scenario.

Especially, the advanced option "-p auto" looks really challenging!!!

Thank you for your help.

Regards,

~/sage-9.7/b2/b2.0$ ./configure --prefix=/mnt/g/Maths/sage-9.7/b2.0

~/sage-9.7/b2/b2.0$ ln -s $(pwd)/sage ~/bin/root.b2.0

~/sage-9.7/b2/b2.0$ root.b2.0 --advanced
SageMath version 9.7.beta2, Release Date: 2022-06-12

Running Sage, the most common options:

file.[sage|py|spyx] -- run given .sage, .py or .spyx file
-c cmd -- evaluate cmd as sage code. For example,
"sage -c 'print(factor(35))'" will
print "5 * 7".

Running Sage, other options:

--preparse file.sage -- preparse "file.sage", and produce
the corresponding Python file
"file.sage.py"
-q -- quiet; start with no banner
--min -- do not populate global namespace
(must be first option)
--nodotsage -- run Sage without using the user's
.sage directory: create and use a temporary
.sage directory instead.

this option with sage-shell mode in emacs

--all -- test all files
--optional -- also test all examples labeled "# optional"
--only-optional[=tags]

collect garbage before every test; NEVER:
disable gc; DEFAULT: Python default)
--short[=secs] -- run as many doctests as possible in about 300
seconds (or the number of seconds given.) This runs
the tests for each module from the top of the file
and skips tests once it exceeds the budget
allocated for that file.
--help -- show all doctesting options
--tnew [...] -- equivalent to -t --new
-tp <N> [...] -- like -t above, but tests in parallel using

-e <envlist> -- run specific test environments
(default: run all except full pycodestyle)
doctest -- run the Sage doctester
(same as "sage -t")
coverage -- give information about doctest coverage of files
(same as "sage --coverage[all]")
startuptime -- display how long each component of Sage takes to start up

-- regular expression search through the Sage
library for "string". Any options will
get passed to the "grep" command.
--grepdoc [options] <string>
-- regular expression search through the
Sage documentation for "string".
--search_src ... -- same as --grep
--search_doc ... -- same as --grepdoc
--sh [...] -- run a shell with Sage environment variables
as they are set in the runtime of Sage
--cleaner -- run the Sage cleaner. This cleans up after Sage,
removing temporary directories and spawned processes.
(This gets run by Sage automatically, so it is usually
not necessary to run it separately.)
File conversion:

--rst2ipynb [...] -- Generates Jupyter notebook (.ipynb) from standalone
reStructuredText source.
(not installed currently, run sage -i rst2ipynb)

Getting help:

-v, --version -- display Sage version information
--dumpversion -- print brief Sage version
-h, -?, --help -- print a short help message
--advanced -- list all command line options

Building the Sage library:

code.
-br -- build and run Sage

-bt [...] -- build Sage and test; same options as -t
-btp <N> [...] -- build Sage and test in parallel; same options as -tp
-btnew [...] -- build Sage and test modified files, as in -t --new

is no guarantee that these packages will
build correctly; use at your own risk

and old-style packages
-f [opts] [pkgs] -- shortcut for -i -f: force build of the given Sage
packages
-p [opts] [packages]-- install the given Sage packages, without dependency
checking. Options are the same as for the -i command.
--optional -- list all optional packages that can be installed
--standard -- list all standard packages that can be installed
--installed -- list all installed packages

Making Sage distributions:

--sdist -- build a source distribution of Sage

Dear All,

It was asked before. It is hoped that it does not hurt to ask again

Which of these advanced options should be seriously considered as real at this stage, post './configure' and pre 'make'

I don't know, but the options described by sage --advanced are mostly intended for use in a functional sage installation and not one that hasn't yet been built. In particular, you just saw that sage -p auto does not function in this context.

"-p auto" is a subitem under "--tox", isn't it? That's what the indentation suggests. Running "./sage -p PKG" is documented separately under "Package handling", and tries to install a Sage package called "PKG". That is, "./sage --tox -p auto ..." is completely different from "./sage -p auto".

Anyway, back to the main question:many of the options don't make sense without a fully functional Sage. Starting from the top:

-c cmd: requires a full installation of Sage

--preparse file.sage: requires a full installation of Sage
-q: only make sense with a full installation of Sage
--min: only make sense with a full installation of Sage
--nodotsage: only make sense with a full installation of Sage

Probably there are very few that are supposed to work without building Sage. Maybe "--sdist"? The items listed under "Package handling" should work, and also "Some developer utitilities", "Other developer tools", and "Getting help". Most of the others: probably not. There are at least two ways to answer the question: try "./configure" and then "./sage --OPTION" and see if it works, or read "src/bin/sage" (and for some of the options, "build/bin/sage-site") and see what the option does.

Hi,

Thanks for your input.

> ... the options described by sage --advanced are mostly intended for use in a functional sage installation ...

Wouldn't it be nice if 'sage --advanced' only shows the appropriate options available at the time that a functional sage installation has not been completed yet?

Hi,

Would it be nice if the syntax for the options are consistent, like' "sage --p PKG" instead of "sage -p PKG"?

Yes, just try it out one by one to see what works and what does not.

It would be helpful if this advice is added to the 'sage --advanced' display. (Is a ticket needed for this?)

Thank you so much for the enlightenment.

phiho

Would it be nice if the syntax for the options are consistent, like' "sage --p PKG" instead of "sage -p PKG"?

It's pretty standard behavior for command-line interfaces for single letters to use a single hyphen before them (and for consistency, "-b -t -p" can be combined into "-btp"), whereas options which are longer use two hyphens: "--package". "sage -h" and "sage --help" are synonyms, and they use the standard hyphenation pattern. Note that "sage -help" is also accepted, and I don't think that's a good design choice.

I just stumbled on the website http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/taoup/html/ch10s05.html, which describes some of the history of command line options in Unix and related systems.
