chore 0.8.8

Multi-scheduler job dispatcher

Description

The Chore dispatcher is a multi-job scheduler module for sending jobs to different systems. It was developed to help manage bioinformatics jobs in a django website environment. But should equally work well outside of django.

How to Use the Module

A simple example:

from chore.shell import JobManager

manager = JobManager()
manager.submit('job_1', 'wait 10')

Basic options example:

manager = JobManager(pipedir='/specific/stash_dir', batch=True)
manager.submit('job_1', cmd='wait 10')

A slurm example:

from chore.slurm import JobManager

manager = JobManager('/tmp/stash_dir', batch=True)
manager.submit('job_1', 'wait 10', provide='job_2')
manager.submit('job_2', 'wait 20', depend='job_1')
