Samping via FabSim

[djgroen]

This is a continuation of UCL-CCS/EasyVVUQ#127

@wedeling I have now developed a first API version, that can either be imported through $pythonpath or just inserted directly into a code base.

You can find the code here:
https://github.com/djgroen/FabSim3/blob/master/lib/fabsim3_cmd_api.py

It's part of commit 369d3c5.

Does this approach work for your purposes? And if so, are there any other specific functions you would like me to add to it?

[wedeling]

I'm checking it out now

@djgroen This works for my purpose. There were some errors in the fabsim3_cmd_api.py file, so I've made a copy in the code base of the example test case that I'm using for the EasyVVUQ article:

https://github.com/wedeling/FabUQCampaign/blob/master/examples/ocean_2D_paper/fabsim3_cmd_api.py

This file works with FabUQCampaign. To submit a job I use

    fab.run_uq_ensemble(my_campaign.campaign_dir, 'ocean', machine='eagle_vecma')

Here fab is the imported file above. It can take some time for the samples to complete, so I've made a separate script for post processing in which I get the results from eagle via

    fab.get_uq_samples(my_campaign.campaign_dir, machine='eagle_vecma')

@wedeling Thanks a lot! I've updated the script in the FabSim3 repo as well now with your changes :).

I leave this ticket open because we need to add documentation still :).

[wedeling]

@djgroen btw, do you think we should include this in the EasyVVUQ paper already? I think it probably should be, as the source code I use will be made available as well

[djgroen]

@wedeling Yes, I am in full favour of that :).
