It can list, configure and execute ++CPL-based recipes from the command line. ++ ++One of the features provided by the CPL is the ability to create ++data-reduction algorithms that run as plugins (dynamic libraries). These are ++called recipes and are one of the main aspects of the CPL data-reduction ++development environment. ++ ++As these recipes are dynamic libraries, it is not possible to run them ++directly from the command line. However, ESO provides several tools to do ++this, thus saving recipe developers the need to write such an application ++themselves. One of these is GASGANO (a GUI-based tool) and the other is ++ EsoRex (which runs from the command line) and is described here. ++ ++[ENVIRONMENT] ++All options can be set as environment parameters as well. See the previous ++paragraph for details. ++ ++[HINTS] ++.TP ++.SH File permissions ++When a recipe is used with the \fB\-\-suppress\-prefix\fR option, and the ++\fB\-\-output\-dir\fR is set to the current working directory, then the first ++execution of a recipe will work correctly, but subsequent executions may ++fail. This is due to output products being given \`read-only\' permission ++(to avoid the potential inadvertant loss of products). The recipe itself ++is unable to modify the permissions, and thus it fails when attempting to ++create the file. The solution (other than using a different output directory ++or prefixes) is to change the permission of these output files or delete ++them prior to any subsequent execution of that recipe. ++ ++This problem is less likely to occur in EsoRex v2+, due to the replacement of ++the \fB\-\-output\-overwrite\fR option with the \fB\-\-output\-readonly\fR ++(which is disabled by default). However, a determined user can still reach ++this situation, in which case the non-readable products must have their ++permissions changed, as described above. ++ ++.TP ++.SH Configuration files ++When creating configuration files, if the the recipe is provided on the ++command line, then EsoRex will generate the configuration file for this ++recipe. If no recipe name is given, then EsoRex will generate a configuration ++file for EsoRex itself. All configuration files are written in the ++$HOME/.esorex/ directory. ++ ++.TP ++.SH Memory checking ++It is possible to get EsoRex to check for memory leaks in the recipe ++that it is running, by enabling the \fB\-\-mem\-check\fR option. Then, at the ++conclusion of the recipe execution, and after memory deallocation, a list of ++all remaining allocated memory will be printed to screen. If there are no ++memory leaks, then no addition output is displayed. ++ ++[FILES] ++.TP ++.SH /etc/esorex.rc $HOME/.esorex/esorex.rc ++Default configuration files ++ ++The configuration file contains the EsoRex options, less the \`\-\-\' ++switch, but prefixed with \`esorex.caller.\'. Blank lines are ignored and ++lines beginning with \`#\' are treated as comments. ++ ++Here is an example configuration file. ++ ++ # Example EsoRex configuration file ++ # ++ esorex.caller.recipe-dir=/home/username/EsoRex/Plugins ++ esorex.caller.log-dir=. ++ esorex.caller.log-file=esorex.log ++ esorex.caller.log-file=esorex.log ++ esorex.caller.output-dir=. ++ esorex.caller.output-prefix=out_ ++ ++.TP ++.SH filename.sof ++A sof file contains a list of the input data. This data is specified in an sof ++file (which is just a text file), where each input file is specified with its ++associated classification and category. The format of each line in the sof ++file is as follows: ++ ++ full-path-to-file classification ++ ++Optionally, a third column may be provided. Permitted values are either RAW or ++CALIB. This is for when a recipe does not identify the type of input file, but ++as all ESO recipes are required to do so, this column is typically not needed. ++ ++An example sof file, for the mythological "ZIMOS" instrument, might look like this: ++ ++ /data/mos/ZIMOS.03-12-26T01:05:06.fits MOS_SCIENCE ++ /data/mos/ZIMOS.03-12-26T01:26:00.fits MOS_SCIENCE ++ /data/mos/ZIMOS.03-12-26T01:47:04.fits MOS_SCIENCE ++ /data/cal/master_bias4.fits MASTER_BIAS ++ /data/cal/grs_LR_red.3.tfits GRISM_TABLE ++ /data/gasgano/extract_table2.fits EXTRACT_TABLE ++ /data/cal/badpixel.3.tfits CCD_TABLE ++ ++For an concrete example for a specific instrument, check the documentation for that ++instrument. ++ |
