Dear all
I would like to ask whether it is possible to let the ‘Module Browser’ show the module extensions in addition to the modules, as well?
To elaborate further, I’d say that we use Lmod, and we install our software using EasyBuild. Some R/Python/Perl/Rust/Julia modules come with a list of their extensions. Take e.g. numpy as an example for Python. The point is that there exists no numpy module, but rather numpy is an extension/package installed within the SciPy-bundle module. This means that a user who might be interested in listing available numpy modules cannot get a hint that he has to load a specific SciPy-bundle modue for the specific numpy version he wants, because at the moment, the Module Browser is not listing the extensions.
The good thing is that the spider-json dump fully contains the extension names for all the modules he finds. It is only the matter of OnDemand consuming that information, if possible, and let users browse through existing extensions.
Do you have a comment on considering this enhancement?
Kind regards
