You must also create a file t2.ecf in $HOME/course/test. Simply copy t1.ecf.
First, modify the suite definition
Text
It is good practice to suspend your suite before you reload any part of it.
Once you made your change(specified below) you can right-click on the suite and “Resume” it.
| Code Block |
|---|
# |
...
Definition of the suite test
suite test
edit ECF_HOME "$HOME/course" # replace '$HOME' with the path to your home directory
task t1
task t2
|
...
endsuite |
| Note |
|---|
As before replace |
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
ecflow_client --load |
...
=test. |
...
def |
| Warning |
|---|
| This will fail because the suite is already loaded |
Because the suite is already defined, you need to delete and reload it first:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
ecflow_client --delete=_all_
|
...
ecflow_client --load=test. |
...
def |
Then restart the suite:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
ecflow_client --begin= |
...
test |
Rather than deleting, loading and beginning the suite every time you can replace
all or part of the suite for example to replace whole suite.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
ecflow_client --replace |
...
=/test test. |
...
def |
or to replace part of the suite:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
ecflow_client --replace |
...
=/test/t2 test. |
...
def |
Python
To delete the suite definition, reload and begin using the Client Server API: First update test.py to add task t2
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
import os from ecflow import Defs,Suite,Task,Edit print("Creating suite definition") home = os.path.join(os.getenv("HOME"), "course") defs = Defs( Suite('test', Edit(ECF_HOME=home), Task('t1'), Task('t2'))) print(defs) print("Checking job creation: .ecf - |
...
> .job0 |
...
") print(defs.check_job_creation()) print("Saving definition to file |
...
'test.def |
...
'")
defs.save_as_defs("test.def") |
To delete all suites in the server and reload the modified test.def, we could update client.py
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
import ecflow print("Client -> Server: delete, then load a new definition |
...
") |
...
try: |
...
ci |
...
= |
...
ecflow.Client() |
...
ci.delete_all() |
...
# clear out the |
...
server |
...
ci.load("test.def") |
...
# load the definition into the |
...
server |
...
ci.begin_suite("test") # start the |
...
suite |
...
except RuntimeError as e: |
...
print("Failed:", e)
|
Rather than deleting, loading, and beginning the suite every time you can replace
all or part of the suite. (i.e.
...
to
...
replace
...
the
...
whole
...
suite
...
see
...
below)
Additionally, we do not want the suite to start straight away. This can be done
However, we will need to remember to do this, each time. To get around this we will
Modify client.py with:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
import ecflow print("Client -> Server: replacing suite |
...
'/test |
...
' in the server, with a new definition |
...
") try: |
...
ci |
...
= |
...
ecflow.Client() |
...
ci.suspend("/test") |
...
# so that we can resume manually in |
...
ecflow_ui ci.replace("/test", "test.def") # replace suite /test with suite of same name in test.def except RuntimeError as e: print("Failed:", e) |
| Note |
|---|
| For brevity the examples that follow, will not show the loading of the suite. |
What to do
- Suspend the suite using ecflow_ui or via python by modifying your client.py to add ecflow.Client.suspend
- Create a new task
- Create t2.ecf by copying from t1.ecf
- Update python scripts test.py and client.py or test.def
- Replace the suite
python: python3 test.py | ./test.py
python3 client.py | ./client.py
text: ecflow_client --replace=/test test.def - Resume the suite using ecflow_ui
- In ecflow_ui watch the two tasks running. They should run at the same time
