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. Documentation for this UFS Utils component is here.
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.
