Description:
automan 0.6
automan: a simple automation framework
This framework allows you to automate your computational pipelines.
automan is open source and distributed under the terms of the 3-clause BSD
license.
Features
It is designed to automate the drudge work of managing many numerical
simulations. As an automation framework it does the following:
helps you organize your simulations.
helps you orchestrate running simulations and then post-processing the
results from these.
helps you reuse code for the post processing of your simulation data.
execute all your simulations and post-processing with one command.
optionally distribute your simulations among other computers on your
network.
This greatly facilitates reproducibility. Automan is written in pure Python
and is easy to install.
Installation
You should be able to install automan using pip as:
$ pip install automan
If you want to run on the bleeding edge, you may also clone this repository,
change directory into the created directory and run either:
$ python setup.py install
or:
$ python setup.py develop
Documentation

There is a paper on automan that motivates and describes the software:
Prabhu Ramachandran, “automan: A Python-Based Automation Framework for
Numerical Computing,” in Computing in Science & Engineering, vol. 20, no. 5,
pp. 81-97, 2018. doi:10.1109/MCSE.2018.05329818
A draft of this paper is available here: https://arxiv.org/abs/1712.04786
There are more than ten research publications that use automan to automate the
entire paper. To see complete examples of these research publications using
this framework, see the following:
The EDAC-SPH paper: https://gitlab.com/prabhu/edac_sph
All the repositories/papers here: https://gitlab.com/pypr
ML/AI related research paper using automan: https://github.com/nn4pde/SPINN
The README.rst in these repositories will document how to set everything
up. The automation script will typically be called automate.py.
A simpler example project which uses automan is here:

The package name
The name automan comes from an old serial with the same name. Most
other names were taken on pypi.
