Query type |
Query |
Description |
|---|---|---|
any |
|
A file in a Rucio scope. |
As default provider
If you want all your input and output (which is not explicitly marked to come from another storage) to be written to and read from this storage, you can use it as a default provider via:
snakemake --default-storage-provider rucio --default-storage-prefix ...
with ... being the prefix of a query under which you want to store all your
results.
You can also pass custom settings via command line arguments:
snakemake --default-storage-provider rucio --default-storage-prefix ... \
--storage-rucio-max-requests-per-second ... \ --storage-rucio-rucio-host ... \ --storage-rucio-auth-host ... \ --storage-rucio-account ... \ --storage-rucio-ca-cert ... \ --storage-rucio-auth-type ... \ --storage-rucio-creds ... \ --storage-rucio-timeout ... \ --storage-rucio-user-agent ... \ --storage-rucio-vo ... \ --storage-rucio-ignore-checksum ... \ --storage-rucio-download-rse ... \ --storage-rucio-upload-rse ... \ --storage-rucio-cache-scope ...
Within the workflow
If you want to use this storage plugin only for specific items, you can register it inside of your workflow:
# register storage provider (not needed if no custom settings are to be defined here)
storage:
provider="rucio",
# optionally add custom settings here if needed
# alternatively they can be passed via command line arguments
# starting with --storage-rucio-..., see
# snakemake --help
# Maximum number of requests per second for this storage provider. If nothing is specified, the default implemented by the storage plugin is used.
max_requests_per_second=...,
# The address of the rucio server, if None it is read from the config file.
rucio_host=...,
# The address of the rucio authentication server, if None it is read from the config file.
auth_host=...,
# The account to authenticate to rucio.
account=...,
# The path to the rucio server certificate.
ca_cert=...,
# The type of authentication (e.g.: 'userpass', 'kerberos' ...)
auth_type=...,
# Dictionary with credentials needed for authentication.
creds=...,
#
timeout=...,
# Indicates the client.
user_agent=...,
# The VO to authenticate into.
vo=...,
# If true, skips the checksum validation between the downloaded file and the rucio catalogue.
ignore_checksum=...,
# Rucio Storage Element (RSE) expression to download files from.
download_rse=...,
# Rucio Storage Element (RSE) expression to upload files to.
upload_rse=...,
# If true, minimize the number of server calls by caching the size and creation time of all files in the same scope.
cache_scope=...,
rule example:
input:
storage.rucio(
# define query to the storage backend here
...
),
output:
"example.txt"
shell:
"..."
Using multiple entities of the same storage plugin
In case you have to use this storage plugin multiple times, but with different settings (e.g. to connect to different storage servers), you can register it multiple times, each time providing a different tag:
# register shared settings
storage:
provider="rucio",
# optionally add custom settings here if needed
# alternatively they can be passed via command line arguments
# starting with --storage-rucio-..., see below
# Maximum number of requests per second for this storage provider. If nothing is specified, the default implemented by the storage plugin is used.
max_requests_per_second=...,
# The address of the rucio server, if None it is read from the config file.
rucio_host=...,
# The address of the rucio authentication server, if None it is read from the config file.
auth_host=...,
# The account to authenticate to rucio.
account=...,
# The path to the rucio server certificate.
ca_cert=...,
# The type of authentication (e.g.: 'userpass', 'kerberos' ...)
auth_type=...,
# Dictionary with credentials needed for authentication.
creds=...,
#
timeout=...,
# Indicates the client.
user_agent=...,
# The VO to authenticate into.
vo=...,
# If true, skips the checksum validation between the downloaded file and the rucio catalogue.
ignore_checksum=...,

download_rse=...,
# Rucio Storage Element (RSE) expression to upload files to.
upload_rse=...,
# If true, minimize the number of server calls by caching the size and creation time of all files in the same scope.
cache_scope=...,
# register multiple tagged entities
storage foo:
provider="rucio",
# optionally add custom settings here if needed
# alternatively they can be passed via command line arguments
# starting with --storage-rucio-..., see below.
# To only pass a setting to this tagged entity, prefix the given value with
# the tag name, i.e. foo:max_requests_per_second=...
# Maximum number of requests per second for this storage provider. If nothing is specified, the default implemented by the storage plugin is used.
