For more information `read the docs <http://drmaa-python.readthedocs.org>`__. If you simply want to run Python functions on a DRMAA-compatbile grid, use `GridMap <https://github.com/pygridtools/gridmap>`__. Requirements ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Python 2.6+ - A DRMAA-compatible cluster (e.g., Grid Engine) Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~~ To use the DRMAA Python library, you need to install it via ``pip``: .. code-block:: bash pip install drmaa and then setup any environment variables that are necessary for your particular DRM system. For SGE, this means ``SGE_ROOT`` and ``SGE_CELL``, which should be set as follows: .. code-block:: bash export SGE_ROOT=/path/to/gridengine export SGE_CELL=default where ``/path/to/gridengine/`` is replaced with the actual path to your Grid Engine installation, and ``default`` is replaced with your installation's actual cell. The path is typically ``/var/lib/gridengine``. You will also need access to the ``libdrmaa.so.1.0`` C library, which can often be installed as part of the ``libdrmaa-dev`` package on most Unixes. Once you have installed that, you may need to tell DRMAA Python where it is installed by setting the ``DRMAA_LIBRARY_PATH`` environment variable, if it is not installed in a location that Python usually looks for libraries. .. code-block:: bash export DRMAA_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/libdrmaa.so.1.0 Acknowledgments ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you to `StatPro <http://www.statpro.com/>`__ and `Educational Testing Service <https://github.com/EducationalTestingService>`__ for funding the development of DRMAA Python.
