Hello All, I would like to highlight a new feature for next version (5.3): ability to query available module variants and their value. A new mechanism named Extra match search is introduced to evaluate modulefiles during a module search to find those matching an extra query on a variant value, a dependency or an environment variable definition. During this specific evaluation, modulefiles are interpreted in scan mode to collect the different Tcl modulefile commands they use. With this new mechanism, it is possible to list all available variant defined in modulefiles with their associated values. You can also search for modules defining a specific variant value. See examples at: https://modules.readthedocs.io/en/latest/MIGRATING.html#querying-available-module-variants Regards, Xavier |
