Setup

Installation

This section applies if you intend to submit pipelines from your own laptop or workstation. If you want to submit pipelines from the JupyterLab or remote desktop terminal this can be skipped as the software is already installed there.

In order to submit pipelines to the IMAXT scheduler you need a recent version of Python installed in your system. Currently only versions 3.7 or greater are supported. You can install Python using conda in a custom environment:

conda create -n pipelines python=3.7

In order to use the new environment:

conda activate pipelines

Once you have a working version of Python, you need to install the owl-pipeline-client package in your environment:

pip install owl-pipeline-client

Authentication

In order to submit pipelines you need to authenticate yourself using your user archive credentials. In a terminal type:

owl login

This will ask for your username and password and create a temporary token so you can access the remote scheduler.
