`Distributed Resource Management Application API `__
(DRMAA) bindings for Python. For more information
`read the docs `__.
If you simply want to run Python functions on a DRMAA-compatible grid, use
`GridMap `__.
Requirements
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Python 2.7+
- 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
