pycif.plugins.models.iconart — API reference

Configuration reference: iconart plugin

pycif.plugins.models.iconart.compile.compile(self)

The compile function initializes all model information and executables prior to any run. Files must be copied in $workdir/model.

This includes:

• copying executable if exist

  Warning

  It is recommended to copy executable files to make sure than later simulations in the present pyCIF computation use the same executable. Indeed, it can happen that one runs very long inversions in the background and carries on developments, forgetting about the background inversions, thus potentially breaking the background inversions, or worse, changing the result without error…

• copy sources and compile if no executable is around, or if explicitly required to re-compile.

  Note

  As much as possible, the model should be compiled within pyCIF to guarantee a traceability of the options used for compiling and also dealing with platform specificities through the platform Plugin (see details here)

• copy extra configuration files, e.g., templates for namelists, etc.

pycif.plugins.models.iconart.ini_mapper.ini_mapper(model, general_mapper={}, backup_comps={}, transforms_order=[], ref_transform='', transform_name='', **kwargs)

pycif.plugins.models.iconart.ini_periods.ini_periods(self, **kwargs)

The function ini_periods is optional but very recommended. It is used to define the temporal variables subsimu_dates, input_dates, tstep_dates and tstep_all. The function is automatically called at the initialization of the model class if available. If not available, the temporal variables should be defined manually in the ini_data function (not recommended).

ini_periods is a class method that applies to the model plugin itself. Therefore, the only expected argument is self.

def ini_periods(self, **kwargs):

    self.subsimu_dates = XXXX
    self.tstep_dates = XXXXX
    self.input_dates = XXXXX
    self.tstep_all = XXXXX

pycif.plugins.models.iconart.perturb_model.perturb_model(self, nsamples, transf_mapper)

pycif.plugins.models.iconart.run.run(self, runsubdir, mode, workdir, ddi, nbproc=1, do_simu=True, approx_transf=False, ref_fwd_dir='', overlap=False, **kwargs)

Run the model in forward, tangent-linear or adjoint mode. This includes:

• executing the model external executable

• updating adj_refdir

• moving files needed for chained simulations to “{}/../”.format(runsubdir)

Note

For model for which the adjoint is not coded, make sure to return a clear error if the run function is called in adj mode and with do_simu = True

Parameters:

• self – the model Plugin

• runsubdir (str) – working directory for the current run

• mode (str) – forward or backward

• workdir (str) – pyCIF working directory

• do_simu (bool) – re-run or not existing simulation
