Python Bindings version 2 API Reference

Note

This is the second major version of the HTCondor Python bindings.

After many years of heavy use and feedback from our users, we need to reimplement the bindings. We didn’t make this decision lightly – it’s a lot of work that could have gone into making things better, rather than staying where we are – but it had to be done. Our goal is to keep as many existing scripts working without change as possible, but we’re also taking advantage of this opportunity to make some significant improvements. Some of these improvements will break some – we hope very few – existing scripts.

For more details on what’s changed, please see Migrating From Version 1.

This documentation is the exhaustive definition of version 2 of HTCondor’s Python API. It is not intended as a tutorial for new users.
