class binarycpython.utils.population_extensions.condor.condor(**kwargs)

Bases: object

Extension for the Population class containing the code for Condor grid runs

condorID(ClusterID=None, Process=None)

Function to return a Condor job ID as a string, [ClusterID].[Process]. The ClusterID and Process passed in are used if given, otherwise we default to the condor_ClusterID and condor_Process in population_options.

condor_check_requirements()

Function to check whether the condor parameters in population_options have been set appropriately.

condor_dirs()

Directories associated specifically with this condor job.

condor_grid()

function to be called when running grids when population_options[‘condor’]>=1

if population_options[‘condor’]==1, we set up the condor script and launch the jobs, then return True to exit. if population_options[‘condor’]==2, we run the stars, which means we return False to continue. if population_options[‘condor’]==3, we are being called from the jobs to run the grids, return False to continue.

TODO: split this function into some parts TODO: Comment this function better

condor_outfile(condor_dir=None)

condor_status_file(ClusterID=None, Process=None, condor_dir=None)

Return the condor status file corresponding to the ClusterID and Process, which default to population_options condor_ClusterID and condor_Process, respectively.

condorpath(path, condor_dir=None)

Function to return the full condor directory path.

get_condor_status(ClusterID=None, Process=None, condor_dir=None)

Get and return the condor status corresponing to the self object, or ClusterID.Process if they are passed in. If no status is found, returns an empty string..

make_condor_dirs(condor_dir=None)

Function to make the condor directories

set_condor_status(string, condor_dir=None)
