Compiling the Magnetic Dynamics Plug-In Module

• After having cloned the source repository (see Compiling Takin), go to the plugin's directory: cd takin/magnon-plugin.
• Create a "build" directory: mkdir build && cd build.
• Build the plugin: cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. && make -j4.
• Create Takin's plugin directory if needed: mkdir -p ~/.takin/plugins.
• Copy the plugin to the plugin directory:
  • On Mac: cp libmagnonmod.dylib ~/.takin/plugins/,
  • On Linux: cp libmagnonmod.so ~/.takin/plugins/.

Compiling the Magnetic Dynamics Python Package

• After having cloned the source repository (see Compiling Takin), go to the module's directory: cd takin/mag-core/tools_py/magdyn/.
• Create a "build" directory: mkdir build && cd build.
• Build the Python package: cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. && make -j4.
• Install the Python package: sudo make install.

Compiling the Magnetic Dynamics Package as Stand-Alone Program

• After having cloned the source repository (see Compiling Takin), go to the module's directory: cd takin/mag-core/tools/magdyn/.
• Create a "build" directory: mkdir build && cd build.
• Build the Python package: cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. && make -j4.
