Using complete

The complete attribute can be used to force things to a complete state if they are queued and the condition is met.
Here is an example when we have a task that decides that the whole family should not run. As it has repeat in it, it will advance the repeat to the next date and run that:
Conditional complete
suite x
family f
repeat date YMD 20120601 20200531
complete ./f/check:nofiles
task check
event 1 nofiles
task t1 ; trigger check==complete
task t2 ; trigger t2==complete
endfamily
Here is a python example where we create a simple reusable experimental meteorological suite. There is a configuration section for the dates and synoptic cycles to be selected, and there is a function (add_complete()) to select the contents for the complete statement. This is needed since you can only have one complete statement for any node. The main loop of the suite is pretty straightforward.
class ExperimentalSuite(object):
def _init_(self,start,end) :
self.start_ = start
self.end_ = end
self.start_cycle_ = 12
self.end_cycle_ = 12
def generate(self) :
suite = Suite("x")
make_fam = suite.add_family("make")
make_fam.add_task("build")
make_fam.add_task("more_work")
main_fam = suite.add_family("main")
main_fam.add_repeat( RepeatDate("YMD",self.start_,self.end_) )
main_fam.add_trigger( "make == complete" )
previous = 0
for FAM in ( 0, 6, 12, 18 ) :
fam_fam = suite.add_family(str(FAM))
if FAM > 0 :
fam_fam.add_trigger( "./" + str(previous) + " == complete " )
self.add_complete(fam_fam,FAM)
fam_fam.add_task("run")
fam_fam.add_task("run_more").add_trigger( "run == complete")
previous = FAM
return suite
def add_complete(self,family,fam):
if fam < self.start_cycle_ and fam > self.end_cycle_ :
family.add_complete( "../main:YMD eq " + str(self.start_) + " or ../main:YMD ge " + str(self.end_) )
elif fam < self.start_cycle_ :
family.add_complete( "../main:YMD eq " + str(self.start_) )
elif fam > self.end_cycle_ :
family.add_complete( "../main:YMD ge " + str(self.end_) )
return
print str( ExperimentalSuite(20120601,20120605).generate() )
