By default ecFlow expects files to be in a directory structure below ECF_HOME
the ecf script for the task t1 must be in a sub-directory test.
- In ECF_HOME, create a directory test:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
mkdir test |
- In test, create a file t1.ecf with the following contents:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
%include "../head.h" echo "I am part of a suite that lives in %ECF_HOME%" %include "../tail.h" |
Job creation
Before submitting the task, the server will transform the ecf script to a job file
This process is known as job creation.
This involves locating the ecf script on disk, and then pre-processing the
directives. This process includes performing variable substitution.
This will create a file with a ‘.job’ extension.
This is the script that ecflow_server will submit to your system.
In our case:
%include ”../head.h” will be substituted by the content of the file head.h.
Note that the file name is given relatively to the file t1.ecf,i.e. in the directory above the one containing t1.ecf%ECF_HOME% will be substituted by the value of the variable ECF_HOME
%include ”../tail.h” will be substituted by the content of the file tail.h
What to do
- Create the ecf script t1.ecf in $HOME/course/test directory
