submit does not work on SGE #57

Description

@jdidion

From what I can gather, jip submits jobs to SGE by calling qsub with its arguments and then passing "exec jip exec --db " on stdin. This does not work, at least on the version of SGE installed on our cluster. The job just ends up in the Eqw state. It seems like a much better option is just to call qsub with the -b y option and then pass the jip exec command on the command line. The fix described below works.

Add the following method to db.py/Job:

def get_cluster_command_list(self):
    """Returns the command that should send to the
    cluster to run this job as a list of arguments.

    :returns: list
    """
    if db_in_memory or db_path is None:
        return ["jip", "exec", str(self.id)]
    else:
        return ["jip", "exec", "--db", db_path, str(self.id)]

Then change cluster.py/SGE.submit:

job_cmd = job.get_cluster_command_list()
...
cmd.extend(["-b", "y"])
process = Popen(cmd + job_cmd, stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE)
