PREREQUISITES:

Python - on Windows only:

Please install python 2.7.9 including pip

PySide

Linux - yum based distros:

sudo yum install python-pyside

Note: On Centos 7 you have to compile & install PySide by yourself as described here: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/160496/how-to-install-pyside-package-for-centos-7

OSX:

install macports and do:

sudo port install py-pyside

Windows:

pip install -U PySide

Boto

Windows (might also work on Linux/MacOs):

pip install -U boto

Linux/Mac - from source:

git clone https://github.com/boto/boto.git
cd boto
sudo python setup.py install

INSTALL:

git clone https://github.com/ultra-sonic/opencloudrender.git
cd opencloudrender
#get cgru rendermanger - submodule
git submodule init
git submodule update

Note: I originally intended to install opencloudrender using distutils, but due to the dependency on "cgru/afanasy" this seems impossible. If anybody comes up with a clever way let me know!

CONFIGURE:

Afanasy

you must configure the hostname or ip of your afserver here: cgru/afanasy/config_default.json

just change this line: "af_servername":"yourserver.here.com", Boto

please copy .boto-default to your user-home and rename it to .boto now fill in your own aws credentials - also remove those <> brackets

LAUNCH:

just launch

opencloudrender.sh

or

opencloudrender.bat
