TIBCO GridServer® 7.1.0

# The Python Driver (PyDriver)

To use PyDriver:

| 1. | Add the 64-bit C++ Driver directory to the `PATH` environment variable.

| 2. | Make certain the Python 3.7.0 directory is in the `PATH` environment variable.

| 3. | For Windows, make certain the VC14 runtime is installed.

## Windows Installation

To install PDriver on Windows systems, run the `PDriverInstaller.msi` installer in the `pdriver` directory of the SDK download. By default, this installs PDriver to the `c:\TIBCO\datasynapse\PDriver` directory.

This also installs the VC runtime if it is needed, and associates `.PDS` files with PDriver.

The installer sets the `DS_PDRIVER_CONF` environment variable, which specifies the location of the `driver.properties` file, to the installation directory. Verify that the `driver.properties` file contains the correct Manager and authentication settings so that the Driver points to your local Manager.

## UNIX Installation

To install PDriver on UNIX systems

Procedure

| 1. | Copy the files in the SDK directory to your machine and set your path to include `pdriver/bin`.

| 2. | Set the environment variable `DSDRIVER_DIR` to the path of the `config` directory in the SDK.

| 3. | Set the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` environment variable to include the `cppdriver/lib` and `pdriver/lib` directories.

Note:

Note that only Pdriver `linux64-gcc34` is supported from GridServer version 7.1.0 onwards.

## Using PDriver

To run a PDriver script file, invoke the PDriver binary and pass the PDriver script file as the first argument. For example, on UNIX systems:

    pdriver examples/example.pds

Running `pdriver` or `PDriver.exe` without a PDS argument provides a usage message.

The `examples` directory contains several example PDriver script files.
