The optional contribution modules (aka "contribs") are tools or plugins operating on top of HTCondor. None of them underlie the HTCondor development cycle and the HTCondor team does not provide support for most of them (exceptions are described in the respective module). Many of the modules are hosted within HTCondor's git repository in the condor_contrib folder and are distributed with the HTCondor source release, however, they are not part of HTCondor's release binaries.

If you want to provide your own contrib module, please follow the instructions on the wiki page ProvideContribModules.

List of current optional contribution modules

HTCondor Quill

 Quill stores job history data persistently in a database and allows HTCondor tools to query the database. See: CondorQuill

HTCondor DBQ

 HTCondor DBQ provides a relational database management system interface to HTCondor. See: HtcondorDbq

HTCondor Pigeon

 Pigeon allows queuing and forwarding of user log messages via AMQP. It consists of a broker and client tools. See: CondorPigeon

HTCondor Aviary

 An alternative SOAP API to Birdbath that uses WSO2 and Axis2/C. See: HtcondorAviary

CondorAgent

An alternative API to the HTCondor scheduler based on a REST interface. CondorAgent is a program that runs beside a HTCondor scheduler. It provides enhanced access to scheduler-based data and scheduler actions via a HTTP-based REST interface. CondorAgent is deployed as either a shell script wrapped Python program (which requires Python 2.4 or greater) or as a Windows binary (which does not require a local Python installation). See: https://github.com/cyclecomputing/condor-agent

HTCondor Plumage

 A NoSQL operational data store framework that uses mongodb. See: CondorPlumage

HtcondorLogViewer

Real-time visualization of events in the job event log. See: HtcondorLogViewer

CondorView

A resource viewer. See: CondorView

DMTCP/HTCondor Integration

 DMTCP is a third part user space checkpointing library which, through a shim script and extra information in one's submit description file, can checkpoint vanilla universe jobs. See: DmtcpCondor

QMF management suite for HTCondor

 QMF is a set of pluggable modules that assemble a suite for managing HTCondor jobs. It uses Apache Qpid for message transport See: QmfSuite

QMF trigger daemon

 This daemon raises QMF Events based upon user defined ClassAd queries. See: QmfTriggerd

Stork

Stork is a batch scheduler specialized in data placement and data movement, which is based on the concept and ideal of making data placement a first class entity in a distributed computing environment. See: http://www.storkproject.org

Remote HTCondor

 Remote HTCondor allows a user to submit and monitor batch jobs through a remote instance of HTCondor from his or her computer without having to install HTCondor locally. See: RemoteCondor

CL-MW: A Master/Slave Distributed Computing Library in Common Lisp

 See: ClMw

HDFS

The Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is a user space, distributed file system, maintained by the Apache project. The condor_hdfs daemon is a damon which manages the running of the java-based hdfs daemon. See: HadoopDistributedFileSystemModule
