Running a local user installation

When developing and testing PySlurm this is an example of the general method I use :

• Set the Python path to the Cython to build PySlurm and the PySlurm development library directory to be able to run PySlurm :

  export PYTHONPATH=/home/mark/Cython-0.17.3:/home/mark/pyslurm/build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.7/

• Set the Shared library path to point to the Slurm version being built against :

  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/slurm/2.5.0/lib/

• Change into the PySlurm directory :

  cd /home/mark/pyslurm

• Build PySlurm for the Slurm version (see README.rst) without installing so we use PYTHONPATH :

  python setup.py build --slurm=PATH_TO_SLURM_DIR

• Run any of example programs if build was successful :

  python examples/slurm_ctl.py
