ecFlowUI has a built-in editor for specifying your own commands if they do not appear in the supplied context menu. Once you have run a new command, it is recorded and will be added automatically to the context menu under Custom. A maximum of the 10 most recently used custom commands will appear here. The ability to further refine these commands is planned.
When you select Custom | New command from the node context menu, the following editor appears.
The Command line is already partially filled in with ecflow_client and <full_name>, and the text cursor positioned between them. Single-clicking on an action from the list brings up its associated help page, while double-clicking on it inserts it into the command line.
Click the Run button to execute the command on the selected nodes. The node selection can be refined before this step by clicking into the Selected Nodes tab and deselecting some nodes from the list.
When the command is run, the placeholders <node_name> and <full_name> are replaced with a space-separated list of the names of the selected nodes so that the command is performed on all the nodes in one go.
