How to install blasr on Mac OS X?

Question

I am trying to install blasr on mac osx.

I followed the steps here

I get the error below after using the 'make' command:

make PREFIX=/tmp/pitchfork blasr

I think the important info is here:

raise Exception("[ERROR] %s" % ''.join(_err))
    Exception: [ERROR] --2018-01-24 00:35:30--  https://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/boost/boost_1_60_0.tar.gz

but how can I specify the --no-check-certificate option? That's not a make option, I've tried it.

I tried homebrew but got this message:

If reporting this issue please do so at (not Homebrew/brew or Homebrew/core):

I still need to report the issue at the provided address.

I tried Anaconda 'conda install -c bioconda blasr ':

You need to have the certificate to download (securely) the files. Maybe you can try to do download it via wget to obtain the certificate and then check again with make to install it — llrs, Jan 24, 2018 at 8:04
according to this, there's only a conda recipe for linux-64, not osx-64 — heathobrien, Jan 25, 2018 at 15:44
@heathobrien, ok, but I've got this error after I install it on Linux. blasr -h blasr: error while loading shared libraries: libhdf5_cpp.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory — Biomagician, Jan 25, 2018 at 16:03
If I were you, I'd give this a try: github.com/muccg/docker-blasr — heathobrien, Jan 25, 2018 at 16:10
• update •conda install -c bioconda blasr, okay in June 2022 on z shell of macos — envs_h_gang_5, Jun 24, 2022 at 6:29

The path of least resistance is probably to run the software inside a container. If you install docker, you can just do the following:

git clone https://github.com/muccg/docker-blasr.git
docker-blasr/bin/blasr

(this worked for me on OSX 10.11.6)

I've had many issues with installing blasr on my own, but it's a breeze using (bio)conda, see https://anaconda.org/bioconda/blasr

conda install -c bioconda blasr

$\begingroup$ I added my trial with conda in my question. Did it succeed on Max OSX for you? $\endgroup$

$\begingroup$ I tried in on a GNU/Linux server and got this message after firing up blasr's help: blasr -h blasr: error while loading shared libraries: libhdf5_cpp.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory $\endgroup$
– Biomagician
Jan 25, 2018 at 16:02
$\begingroup$ This seems like a missing library on the server. Did you try to install (or get installed) packages related to libhdf5? $\endgroup$

$\begingroup$ @charlesdarwin I used conda to install it on CentOS Linux, and it indeed seems unavailable for Mac OSX. Oops, sorry! $\endgroup$

is there reason why you want to compile it by your own? You can install blasr though homebrew and brewsci/science tap :

brew tap brewsci/science
brew install blasr

$\begingroup$ I edited my question to include the error from homebrew. $\endgroup$

$\begingroup$ Unfortunately I do not know what is this error, I guess it will be some Xcode-Homebrew versions incompatibility. Best would be to ask directly at github page of homebrew. $\endgroup$
