SWIFT is a gravity and SPH solver designed to run cosmological simulations on peta-scale machines, scaling well up to 10's of thousands of compute node.
More general information about SWIFT is available on the project webpages.
For information on how to run SWIFT, please consult the onboarding guide available here. This includes dependencies, and a few examples to get you going.
We suggest that you use the latest release branch of SWIFT, rather than the current master branch as this will change rapidly. We do, however, like to ensure that the master branch will build and run.
This GitHub repository is designed to be an issue tracker, and a space for the public to submit patches through pull requests. It is synchronised with the main development repository that is available on the ICC's GitLab server which is available here.
Please feel free to submit issues to this repository, or even pull requests. We will try to deal with them as soon as possible, but as the core development team is quite small this could take some time.
The SWIFT source code uses a variation of the 'Google' formatting style. The script 'format.sh' in the root directory applies the clang-format-5.0 tool with our style choices to all the SWIFT C source file. Please apply the formatting script to the files before submitting a pull request.
Please check that the test suite still runs with your changes applied before submitting a pull request and add relevant unit tests probing the correctness of new modules. An example of how to add a test to the suite can be found by considering the tests/testGreeting case.
Any contributions that fail any of the automated tests will not be accepted. Contributions that include tests of the proposed modules (or any current ones!) are highly encouraged.

See INSTALL.swift for install instructions.
Usage: swift [options] [[--] param-file]
or: swift [options] param-file
or: swift_mpi [options] [[--] param-file]
or: swift_mpi [options] param-file
Parameters:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
Simulation options:
-b, --feedback Run with stars feedback.
-c, --cosmology Run with cosmological time integration.
--temperature Run with temperature calculation.
-C, --cooling Run with cooling (also switches on --temperature).
-D, --drift-all Always drift all particles even the ones
far from active particles. This emulates
Gadget-[23] and GIZMO's default behaviours.
-F, --star-formation Run with star formation.
-g, --external-gravity Run with an external gravitational potential.
-G, --self-gravity Run with self-gravity.
-M, --multipole-reconstruction Reconstruct the multipoles every time-step.
-s, --hydro Run with hydrodynamics.
-S, --stars Run with stars.
-B, --black-holes Run with black holes.
-u, --fof Run Friends-of-Friends algorithm to
perform black hole seeding.
-x, --velociraptor Run with structure finding.
--limiter Run with time-step limiter.
Control options:
-a, --pin Pin runners using processor affinity.
-d, --dry-run Dry run. Read the parameter file, allocates
memory but does not read the particles
from ICs. Exits before the start of time
integration. Checks the validity of
parameters and IC files as well as memory
limits.
-e, --fpe Enable floating-point exceptions (debugging
mode).
-f, --cpu-frequency=<str> Overwrite the CPU frequency (Hz) to be
used for time measurements.
-n, --steps=<int> Execute a fixed number of time steps.
When unset use the time_end parameter
to stop.
-o, --output-params=<str> Generate a default output parameter
file.
-P, --param=<str> Set parameter value, overiding the value
read from the parameter file. Can be used
more than once {sec:par:value}.
-r, --restart Continue using restart files.
-t, --threads=<int> The number of threads to use on each MPI
rank. Defaults to 1 if not specified.
-T, --timers=<int> Print timers every time-step.
-v, --verbose=<int> Run in verbose mode, in MPI mode 2 outputs
from all ranks.
-y, --task-dumps=<int> Time-step frequency at which task analysis
files and/or tasks are dumped.
-Y, --threadpool-dumps=<int> Time-step frequency at which threadpool
tasks are dumped.
See the file examples/parameter_example.yml for an example of parameter file.
