Jobs waiting in queue will produce an error in get_job_status

[LizaDarrous]

If I've launched jobs using rslurm and they're stuck in queue due to resources and haven't yet launched, the first part of the get_job_status will return a FALSE in 'completed' status, but the next part that collects the log files will produce an error specifically for the following snippet:
logs <- vapply(out_files, function(outf) paste(readLines(outf), collapse = "\n"), "")
, with Error message
Error in file(con, "r") : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning message: In file(con, "r") : cannot open file '_rslurm_PABMI_optim/slurm_0.out': No such file or directory

Is it possible to remove the log file retrieval, or only print it if $completed == TRUE?

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. It seems like a reasonably easy thing to fix so I should be able to resolve this issue for you. In the meantime, if you have a potential solution, please feel free to submit a pull request! 😁

I think commit 53b5d40 resolves this. Now get_job_status first checks which log files exist, then reads only those files. If none exist yet, the logs object will be empty in the output. I'm closing this issue but please let us know if there is still a problem.

Thank you for the quick update!
