Classes
class

pipen.proc.ProcMeta(name, bases, namespace, **kwargs)

Bases
abc.ABCMeta

Meta class for Proc

Methods
staticmethod

register(cls, subclass)

Register a virtual subclass of an ABC.

Returns the subclass, to allow usage as a class decorator.

staticmethod

__instancecheck__(cls, instance)

Override for isinstance(instance, cls).

staticmethod

__subclasscheck__(cls, subclass)

Override for issubclass(subclass, cls).

staticmethod

__repr__(cls) → str

Representation for the Proc subclasses

staticmethod

__call__(cls, *args, **kwds)

Make sure Proc subclasses are singletons

Parameters
  • *args (Any) and
  • **kwds (Any) Arguments for the constructor
Returns (Proc)

The Proc instance

class

pipen.proc.Proc(*args, **kwds)Proc

The abstract class for processes.

It's an abstract class. You can't instantise a process using it directly. You have to subclass it. The subclass itself can be used as a process directly.

Each subclass is a singleton, so to intantise a new process, each subclass an existing Proc subclass, or use Proc.from_proc().

Never use the constructor directly. The Proc is designed as a singleton class, and is instansiated internally.

Attributes
  • cache Should we detect whether the jobs are cached?
  • desc The description of the process. Will use the summary fromthe docstring by default.
  • dirsig When checking the signature for caching, whether should we walkthrough the content of the directory? This is sometimes time-consuming if the directory is big.
  • envs The arguments that are job-independent, useful for common optionsacross jobs.
  • envs_depth How deep to update the envs when subclassed.
  • error_strategy How to deal with the errors
    • - retry, ignore, halt
    • - halt to halt the whole pipeline, no submitting new jobs
    • - terminate to just terminate the job itself
  • export When True, the results will be exported to <pipeline.outdir>Defaults to None, meaning only end processes will export. You can set it to True/False to enable or disable exporting for processes
  • forks How many jobs to run simultaneously?
  • input The keys for the input channel
  • input_data The input data (will be computed for dependent processes)
  • lang The language for the script to run. Should be the path to theinterpreter if lang is not in $PATH.
  • name The name of the process. Will use the class name by default.
  • nexts Computed from requires to build the process relationships
  • num_retries How many times to retry to jobs once error occurs
  • order The execution order for this process. The bigger the numberis, the later the process will be executed. Default: 0. Note that the dependent processes will always be executed first. This doesn't work for start processes either, whose orders are determined by Pipen.set_starts()
  • output The output keys for the output channel(the data will be computed)
  • output_data The output data (to pass to the next processes)
  • plugin_opts Options for process-level plugins
  • requires The dependency processes
  • scheduler The scheduler to run the jobs
  • scheduler_opts The options for the scheduler
  • script The script template for the process
  • submission_batch How many jobs to be submited simultaneously
  • template Define the template engine to use.This could be either a template engine or a dict with key engine indicating the template engine and the rest the arguments passed to the constructor of the pipen.template.Template object. The template engine could be either the name of the engine, currently jinja2 and liquidpy are supported, or a subclass of pipen.template.Template. You can subclass pipen.template.Template to use your own template engine.
