The job file is the actual file that ecFlow will submit to the system. Starting with the following ecFlow file:
Code Block |
---|
|
%manual
OPERATORS: Set the task complete and report next day
%end
%include <head.h>
echo do some work
sleep %SLEEPTIME%
echo end of job
%include <end.h> |
This uses the header files head.h, end.h for example as given earlier and with SLEEPTIME defined as having a value 60.
After pre-processing the job-file will include the header files and variables and exclude comments and man pages. It would look something like:

#!/bin/ksh

set -u # fail when using an undefined variable
set -x # echo script lines as they are executed
