orog
Note
The uwtools drivers are idempotent, meaning that actions they successfully complete during one invocation are not repeated in subsequent invocations. For example, an asset like a configuration file will not be recreated when the driver is run again, even if its UW YAML configuration changes. To force recreation, remove the asset(s) in question – up to and including the entire provisioned run directory – then re-run the driver, which will recreate any missing assets based on the current configuration.
The uw mode for configuring and running the UFS Utils preprocessing component orog.
uw orog --help
usage: uw orog [-h] [--version] [--show-schema] TASK ...
Execute orog tasks
Optional arguments:
-h, --help
Show help and exit
--version
Show version info and exit
--show-schema
Show driver schema and exit
Positional arguments:
TASK
files_linked
Files linked for run
grid_file
The input grid file
input_config_file
The input config file
provisioned_rundir
Run directory provisioned with all required content
run
A run
runscript
The runscript
show_output
Show the output to be created by this component
validate
Validate the UW driver config
All tasks take the same arguments. For example:
uw orog run --help
usage: uw orog run [-h] [--version] [--config-file PATH] [--batch] [--dry-run]
[--graph-file PATH] [--key-path KEY[.KEY...]]
[--schema-file PATH] [--quiet] [--verbose]
A run
Optional arguments:
-h, --help
Show help and exit
--version
Show version info and exit
--config-file PATH, -c PATH
Path to UW YAML config file (default: read from stdin)
--batch
Submit run to batch scheduler
--dry-run
Only log info, making no changes
--graph-file PATH
Path to Graphviz DOT output [experimental]
--key-path KEY[.KEY...]
Dot-separated path of keys to driver config block
--schema-file PATH
Path to schema file to use for validation
--quiet, -q
Print no logging messages
--verbose, -v
Print all logging messages
Examples
The examples use a configuration file named config.yaml with contents similar to:
orog:
execution:
batchargs:
cores: 1
walltime: 00:05:00
executable: /path/to/orog
files_to_link:
fort.15: /path/to/fix/thirty.second.antarctic.new.bin
landcover30.fixed: /path/to/fix/landcover30.fixed
fort.235: /path/to/fix/gmted2010.30sec.int
grid_file: /path/to/netcdf/grid/file
rundir: /path/to/run/dir
platform:
account: me
scheduler: slurm
Its contents are described in section orog.
Run
orogon an interactive node$ uw orog run --config-file config.yaml
The driver creates a
runscript.orogfile in the directory specified byrundir:in the config and runs it, executingorog.Run
orogvia a batch job$ uw orog run --config-file config.yaml --batch
The driver creates a
runscript.orogfile in the directory specified byrundir:in the config and submits it to the batch system. Running with--batchrequires a correctly configuredplatform:block inconfig.yaml, as well as appropriate settings in theexecution:block underorog:.Specifying the
--dry-runflag results in the driver logging messages about actions it would have taken, without actually taking any.$ uw orog run --config-file config.yaml --batch --dry-run
The
--key-pathoption can be used to navigate from the top of the config to the driver’s configuration block. For example, specifying--key-path foo.barwith configfoo: bar: driver: # driver config block
is equivalent to using config
driver: # driver config block
without specifying
--key-path.
Specifying the
--show-schemaflag, with no other options, prints the driver’s schema:uw orog --show-schema >schema head -n20 schema{ "properties": { "orog": { "additionalProperties": false, "properties": { "execution": { "additionalProperties": false, "properties": { "batchargs": { "additionalProperties": true, "properties": { "cores": { "type": "integer" }, "debug": { "type": "boolean" }, "exclusive": { "type": "boolean" },Use the
--schema-fileoption to specify a custom JSON Schema file with which to validate the driver config. A custom schema could range in complexity from the simplest, most permissive schema,{}, to one based on the internal schema shown by--show-schema.
