This is to test Andy Porter psyclone development.

I have removed invoke_jules_exp_kernel_type from psykal_lite_phys_mod.F90

Making a note of commands used in workaround so that lfric_apps sees the local checked out psyclone branch

module use /home/users/lfricadmin/lmod
module load lfric/vn3.2
module unload py-psyclone

Just in case
module list psyclone
which psyclone

(In the root of the clone)
python3.12 -m venv .venv
(load the env)
source .venv/bin/activate
(install fabtoy into it)
pip install -e .

I have put a link to the local branch of psyclone inside my lfric_apps branch
Make sure that the working branch in that directory is 1948_stencils_for_domain

Then run rose-stem
cylc vip -z group=all -n test_stencil_support ./rose-stem

or for command line build
source <directory of psyclone>/.venv/bin/activate

note that interfaces/physics_schemes_interface/source/psy/psykal_lite_phys_mod.F90 has a mix of unusual grammar (both jinger2 and bash). i get the general idea of what it is doing, but may need to get more familiar if i need to work on a similar problem a second time.

command line build
source <directory of psyclone>/.venv/bin/activate

Load the required environment
$ ml use ~lfricadmin/lmod
Load the GNU compiler setup for LFRic
$ ml lfric
Launch the local build
$ ./build/local_build.py lfric_atm
