Using virtualenv
From mn/bio/cees-bioinf
virtualenv is a tool to create isolated Python environments. See https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/latest/index.html
Setting up virtualenv on the cod-nodes/abel
module load python2 virtualenv my_python_dir
will create locally a python tree.
Then you can run
cd my_python_dir ./bin/activate
And you're ready to go.
This is a fix necessary for abel and the cod nodes, normally not necessary:
unset PYTHONPATH
Deactivating the environment
deactivate
Using an existing virtual env
cd my_python_dir ./bin/activate
Installing modules in your virtualenc
Activate and then run
pip install module_name
