UGE DRMAA v2 Python API

Prerequisites

UGE DRMAA2 requires recent versions of the following software:

1. UGE (8.6.8 or above)

2. Python (v2.7.5 or later in 2.7 series, or in any 3.x series)

3. Setuptools (0.9.8 or later; for egg installation)

4. Nose (1.3.7 or later; for testing)

5. Sphinx (1.1.3 or later; for generating documentation)

6. Standard development tools (make)

7. Python wheel module (0.32.3 or later; for generating wheel package)

8. enum34 module for IntEnum (remove enum module)

The software versions listed above were used for API development and testing, on CentOS 7.2 (64-bit).

Build/Package

In the top level directory run:

$ make clean
$ make

This command should create installable egg and wheel packages, as well as generate documentation and copy it into the dist directory.

Basic API Usage

For simple testing, without installing UGE DRMAA2 egg or wheel package, do the following:

1. Setup SGE environment:

$ source $SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/common/settings.sh

2. Setup PYTHONPATH environment variable to point to the top level directory:

$ export PYTHONPATH=<UGE_DRMAA2_PYTHON_ROOT>

This step is not needed if UGE DRMAA2 egg or wheel package is installed.

3. At this point you can import and use the drmaa2 module:

$ python
>>> import drmaa2
>>> print(drmaa2.get_drmaa_name())
Univa Grid Engine Drmaa V2

Note that there are a number of API usage examples located under the examples directory.

Running Test Suite

1. Setup SGE environment:

$ source $SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/common/settings.sh

2. In the top level directory run:

$ make test
