Publish takes files or directories and transfers them to another publication endpoint and ingests metadata about the files into Globus Search. Both the index in Globus Search and the Globus Endpoint in Globus Pilot must be setup first.
Setup only needs to be done once, then publish can be used freely afterwards. Both Globus Pilot and Globus Search CLI can be installed with the following:
pip install globus-search-cli globus-pilotGlobus Search CLI is responsible for setting up indices in Globus Search. Globus Pilot is a tool which generates metadata about files and directories and handles both the transfer to an endpoint and the ingest to search.
Create the index with the following:
globus-search index create my-indexSetup your publication endpoint with the index you created above with:
globus-pilot index setup <UUID from the step above>After that, you should be ready to publish to your data. See documentation for both of the tools above here:
