HTCondor Plugin for Jupyter Notebook

Description

At the Smart Data Innovation Lab we are using Jupyter Notebooks [0] to develop and visualize our data analysis methods, and the HTCondor batch system [1] to apply these methods to large data sets.

Using Jupyters plugin system (Notebook extensions [2]) and HTCondors python bindings, we would like to achieve some level of integration of these two services.

For example:

  • show utilization of the batch system in notebooks
  • inform user about job statii
  • send batch jobs directly from notebook, if possible

Tasks

  • Research the plugin mechanism of Jupyter
  • Research the capabilities of HTCondors python bindings
  • Develop a plugin that consists of a client side extension and a server side extension

Useful qualifications

  • python
  • javascript
  • HTTP, AJAX
