Retrieving the suite definition

• To retrieve the suite definition in a form that is parse-able, type:

   

  Code Block
  ecflow_client --get

   

  This can be done in a python script:

  #!/usr/bin/env python2.7
  import ecflow
  try:
     ci = ecflow.Client()
     ci.sync_local()                                   # get server definition, by sync with client defs
     ecflow.PrintStyle.set_style( ecflow.Style.DEFS )  # set printing to show structure
     print ci.get_defs()                               # print the returned suite definition
  except RuntimeError, e:
     print "Failed: " + str(e)
  

• To retrieve the suite definition and show state:

   

  Code Block
  ecflow_client --get_state

   

  In python this would be:

  #!/usr/bin/env python2.7
  import ecflow
  try:
     ci = ecflow.Client()
     ci.sync_local()                                   # retrieve server definition, by sync with client defs
     ecflow.PrintStyle.set_style( ecflow.Style.STATE ) # set printing to show structure and state
     print ci.get_defs()                               # print the returned suite definition
  except RuntimeError, e:
     print "Failed: " + str(e)

What to do

1. Locate the job file and the output file
2. Check results by retrieving the suite definition from the server
