SuiteSplines

SuiteSplines is a collection of Julia packages designed for applications in isogeometric analysis.

The SuiteSplines.jl package is intended for registration in the General repository and bundles stable and compatible versions of core packages in the SuiteSplines framework:

IgaBase.jl
SortedSequences.jl
CartesianProducts.jl
KroneckerProducts.jl
AbstractMappings.jl
UnivariateSplines.jl
TensorProductBsplines.jl
NURBS.jl
IgaFormation.jl
ImmersedSplines.jl
BezierBernsteinMethods.jl
SpecialSpaces.jl

The documentation of SuiteSplines.jl includes tutorials and example usage for each of the core packages.

Reexporting submodules

SuiteSplines.jl groups core packages into submodules, such as SuiteSplines.UnivariateSplines. By default, to avoid polluting the namespace, SuiteSplines.jl does not expose any functionality directly. The submodules are only accessible through SuiteSplines.UnivariateSplines, SuiteSplines.SortedSequences, etc.

To conveniently access functionality from specific submodules, you can use the @suitesplines_reexport macro.

For example, to reexport UnivariateSplines and SortedSequences, you can write:

julia> using SuiteSplines

julia> @suitesplines_reexport SortedSequences UnivariateSplines

julia> I = Interval(0.0, 2.0);

julia> S = SplineSpace(2, I, 5)
SplineSpace(degree = 2, interval = [0.0, 2.0], dimension = 7)

If called without arguments, @suitesplines_reexport will reexport all submodules (see SUITESPLINES_PKGS).

julia> @suitesplines_reexport

julia> BezierSimplex <: BezierBernsteinMethods.AbstractSimplex
true

As indicated by the previous prompt, only the names originally exported by a submodule are reexported when calling @suitesplines_reexport.

Local registry

The latest versions of core packages are registered in SuiteSplinesRegistry.

Using core packages independently

To use the core SuiteSplines packages independently, you can add SuiteSplines registry to your depot

(@v1.10) pkg> registry add https://github.com/SuiteSplines/SuiteSplinesRegistry.git

This will make all packages in our local registry available in the package manager just like the packages in the General Julia registry. To add TensorProductBsplines.jl to the active environment you can call

(@v1.10) pkg> add TensorProductBsplines

Alternatively, if you already have SuiteSplines.jl added to your environment and prefer not to look up the URL of the local registry, you can simply call

julia> using SuiteSplines; SuiteSplines.add_registry()
