russtorres / render-python

A python interface for render

render-python

This is a python API client to interact with render-webservices and facilitate python scripting of tilespec creation

it presently interacts with render via a web-api, though the client module aims to interface by calling java client scripts to avoid server-side processing.

Render connection objects created with renderapi.connect() can default to environment variables. Below is an example of the variables which can be sourced and added to, e.g., ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile.

    export RENDER_HOST="localhost"
    export RENDER_PORT="8080"
    export RENDER_PROJECT="YOURPROJECT"
    export RENDER_OWNER="YOURNAME"
    export RENDER_CLIENT_SCRIPTS=".../render/render-ws-java-client/src/main/scripts"
    export RENDER_CLIENT_SCRIPT="$RENDER_CLIENT_SCRIPTS/run_ws_client.sh"
    export RENDER_CLIENT_HEAP="1G"

Usage examples for a development Array Tomography workflow are available.
