parsl.channels.LocalChannel

class parsl.channels.LocalChannel(userhome='.', envs={}, script_dir=None)

This is not even really a channel, since opening a local shell is not heavy and done so infrequently that they do not need a persistent channel

__init__(userhome='.', envs={}, script_dir=None)

Initialize the local channel. script_dir is required by set to a default.

KwArgs:

• userhome (string): (default=’.’) This is provided as a way to override and set a specific userhome

• envs (dict) : A dictionary of env variables to be set when launching the shell

• script_dir (string): Directory to place scripts
