Installing jobstats

The installation requirements for jobstats are Python 3.6+, Requests 2.20+ and (optionally) blessed 1.17+ which can be used for coloring and styling text.

The necessary software can be installed as follows:

$ conda create --name js-env python=3.7 requests blessed -c conda-forge

After setting up the Jobstats platform (see below), to start using the jobstats command on your system, run these commands:

$ git clone https://github.com/PrincetonUniversity/jobstats.git
$ cd jobstats
# use a text editor to create config.py (see the example configuration file below)
$ chmod u+x jobstats
$ ./jobstats 1234567
