Using server

This page is a work in progress.

Setting up remote interpreter
You can use the server python interpreter rather than a local interpreter, which avoids the need for installing software on your local device. Unfortunately, you can only access server files when running with the server interpreter. Additionally, this interpreter only should be used for small jobs, as it may take precedent over existing server jobs.

1. In pycharm, navigate to Interpreter Settings by clicking on interpreter button on bottom right
2. Add new interpreter -> On SSH
3. For host, enter current lab IP address. For username, enter uni
4. For password, use server password
5. Navigate to ifs/data/glab/conda/envs/general/bin/python3

SSH into server
In the terminal, use the command ssh UNI@SERVER_IP
