start_config

start_config(config, continue_run, profile: bool)

The start_config function starts the batch manager with the given config file.

Parameters

• config (str): Path to the config file.

• continue_run (bool): If the batch processing should continue from the last calculation.

• profile (bool): If the code should be profiled. Mainly useful for performance analysis when coding. Will create a ‘.prof’ file.

Returns

• int: The return value indicating the success of the function (0 for success, 1 for failure).

This function checks if the provided config file exists, enables profiling if the profile flag is set, checks the config file, and starts the batch processing. If the continue_run flag is set, it continues from the last calculation.

Usage

You can use the start_config command from the command line as follows:

script_maker_cli start_config --config /path/to/config --continue_run --profile
