vcell admin CLI refresh #452

Closed jcschaff closed 1 year ago

jcschaff commented 1 year ago

VCell's administrative CLI has not been used in a long time, and it helpful for troubleshooting and administration of vcell simulation jobs (amoung other capabilities).

This tool has fell out of use, but @mpw6 (Mike Wilson) found the binary on the servers, and it seemed to nominally work (to query jobs).

The CLI did not work on my laptop (it needed python2 and an old version of pymongo), and also the source was in need of refactoring and packaging to make it more maintainable and useful for all.

This task is a bit out of scope, but since it took Mike, Logan and I a couple of hours to debug jobs - it seems that we need good and well-maintained administrative tools.
