ss-python-to-chtc

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the process of converting Python applications into production-ready Docker and Apptainer containers, making them easily deployable on High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems like CHTC.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Containerization: Creates Dockerfiles and Apptainer definitions for Python scripts and applications.
• Dependency Management: Integrates with Pixi for robust dependency handling, supporting both CPU and GPU configurations.
• HPC Deployment: Generates necessary files (submit scripts, run scripts) for seamless deployment on CHTC/HTCondor and SLURM/HPC environments.
• Use Case: You have a Python script that trains a machine learning model using GPUs. This Skill will generate a Dockerfile and Apptainer definition, along with HTCondor submission files, to run your script efficiently on a GPU-enabled HPC cluster.

Quick Start

Use the ss-python-to-chtc skill to convert the python script 'train_model.py' into a Docker container with GPU support.
