Other software projects solving same problem #21
Comments
I evaluated most of (but not all) these libraries prior to starting HPCpy and came to the conclusion that they fell into one of 3 categories:
A valid argument though, it has been a while since I tried some of these so they may have matured to a usable point for me. But in the meantime I like the simplicity that HPCpy provides: from hpcpy.client import PBSClient
job_id = client.submit("jobscript.sh", queue="express") I'm not saying HPCpy is superior by any means, it has just simplified a lot on my end! |
I admit the question was a little provocative, but I am genuinely interested because I didn't check out all those other options in any depth so am interested that you have. So ... can we utilise HPCpy in |
@aidanheerdegen, I appreciate you keeping me on my toes! I will reserve my opinions until I look into how payu actually works in this regard. However, on the face of it, if all payu needs to do is submit a PBS job, then this is an option for a Python way to do so. |
Well .. the motivation for payu-org/payu#182 is because we wanted to add SLURM support a bit more officially. I guess that isn't a near-term goal? |
@aidanheerdegen, it can be... The development roadmap is largely self-serving to what is needed in other projects I am working on (i.e. meorg_client, am3_ci etc.) if a more imminent need for SLURM support arises we can look at scoping it out. |
@aidanheerdegen, see #1 . SLURM support is something I've wanted since inception... |
My question has been thoroughly answered, so thank you @bschroeter |
Given the there are other software projects that are solving the same problem why is it necessary to create another one?

I am particularly interested because we stalled on implementing cross-platform queue support in
payu
when it wasn't obvious what prior art we should use:payu-org/payu#182
So .. should payu adopt hpcpy? Should hpcpy utilise/wrap other exisiting libraries?
