Slurm charms

Juju charms for automating the Day 0 to Day 2 operations of the Slurm workload manager ⚖️🐧

The slurm-charms repository is a collection of charmed operators that enables you to easily deploy, configure, and manage the Slurm workload manager. Here's the current charms in the collection:

• slurmctld: the central management daemon for Slurm.
• slurmd: the compute node daemon for Slurm.
• slurmdbd: the database daemon for Slurm.
• slurmrestd: the REST API interface to Slurm.

🛠️ Development

The project uses tox as its command runner, which provides some useful commands that will definitely help while hacking on the charms:

tox run -e fmt # Apply formatting standards to code.
tox run -e lint # Check code against coding style standards.
tox run -e type # Type checking.
tox run -e unit # Run unit tests.

We also have some integration tests in place, but be aware that it requires a fairly good amount of computer resources to run them. We usually test with at least 4 cores and 16 GB of RAM, but feel free to experiment!

tox run -e integration
