Spalloc is a Python library and set of command-line programs for requesting SpiNNaker machines from a spalloc server.
To get started, see the quick-start below or refer to the documentation.
Step 1: Install spalloc:
$ pip install spalloc
Step 2: Write a configuration file indicating your email address and the spalloc
server's address (run python -m spalloc.config to discover what to call
your config file on your machine):
[spalloc] hostname = my_server owner = [email protected]
Step 3: Request a system using the command-line interface, e.g. a three-board machine:
$ spalloc 3
...or request one from Python...
>>> from spalloc_client import Job >>> with Job(3) as j: ... my_boot(j.hostname, j.width, j.height) ... my_application(j.hostname)
