Artifacts

UrbanTethysChloris.jl is checked against its original MATLAB counterpart, by comparing the output of the Julia functions with that of the MATLAB functions. This ensures that the Julia implementation is consistent with the expected behavior defined in the original MATLAB code. The comparisons are performed via the Julia artifact system and two repositories associated with this package

• URBES-utc-test-data creates the translation test data and the associated .tar.gz
• UTCBEMModelCode contains the original MATLAB code for the Urban Tethys & Chloris model, including the building energy model.

At present, the creation of the artifact is not automated in the UrbanTethysChloris.jl package. Users must manually create and manage the artifacts as needed by updating the Artifact.toml file with the new sha256 hashes of the .tar.gz file. To do so, first download the latest version of the file from the URBES-utc-test-data repository. Then, run the following code in the Julia REPL

using Tar, Inflate, SHA

filename = "path/to/your/file.tar.gz"
println("sha256: ", bytes2hex(open(sha256, filename)))
println("git-tree-sha1: ", Tar.tree_hash(IOBuffer(inflate_gzip(filename))))

Then, copy the two hashes in the Artifacts.toml file located in the test folder.
