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.

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.
