New question #142335 on DataFinder:
https://answers.launchpad.net/datafinder/+question/142335
Dear,
***introduction to the question***
Recently I discovered DataFinder as a possible useful program to organize
projects/data/launch scripts on different servers. However, at the moment I
still miss some concrete information about how to test the possibilities of
DataFinder in Linux.
What I have been able to do until now is:
* set-up a WebDAV server, using xampp. I can connect both the (python)
admin-client as the user-client to this localhost.
* In the admin-client: I was able to make some Data Types, Relations, Data
Stores, add scripts.
* in the user-client I was able to import and export certain files between the
shared data repository and the local file system, add scripts, ...
But I discovered that I could not open or print any file using this
python-interface, because I work on ubuntu. (I get an error that this is only
possible on windows)
Of course this limits the usability of DataFinder for me, as I and some
colleagues of me work mainly on linux. So is there a way to circumvent this ?
***the actual question***
As I was able to upload scripts, I also tried to run them using DataFinder, by
going to Scripts>use local scripts and click on one of the scripts I uploaded
(e.g. a very simple python script, named test.py containing: print "hello
world" - or a another testscript as "from scipy import */
data=loadtxt("filename.test")/print data"). But apperantly nothing happens
then. Is it also not possible to run scripts in ubuntu? Or do I need to this in
another way.
So what actually want to do is run some simple python test-scripts to see how
DataFinder works, but I the moment I'm not able to this.
***general remark***
In installing DataFinder and testing until now I have had quite some
difficulties of finding the information I needed to do certain things. Is there
an english manual available where the information you need to run DataFinder is
collected? Of is the only available information about DataFinder stored at this
launchpad website?
Kind Regards,
Thomas
