Brocoli application allows users to browse iRODS catalog collections in a simple Tkinter GUI.
For now, Brocoli runs on Linux platforms. There may be Microsoft Windows support in a not-so-far future.
Brocoli needs a Ptyhon installation with Tkinter. Python 2.7+ and 3.5+ are expected to work.
Brocoli depends on the following packages:
- six: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/six
- python-irodsclient: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-irodsclient

# Download Brocoli
# from distribution directory, run python setup.py install [--user]]
Run brocoli from a command shell:
$ brocoli
At first run, Brocoli will use a default os
connection that does nothing
interesting except displaying a local directory. You will want to create a more
useful connection with an iRODS catalog. Just configure it following the menus:
Settings -> New Connection
This will open a dialog where you can set the connection configuration.
Now, you should be able to switch to the newly created connections by following:
Settings -> Switch connection -> Your new connection name
Sub-directories can be opened by clicking on the triangle icon before their name.
Operations on files and directories are accessible by right clicking on the target.
