SCons Extensions

Provide common SCons extensions with utility functions, builders, and construction environment methods.

class waves.scons_extensions.AbaqusPseudoBuilder(builder: Builder, override_cpus: int | None = None)

Bases: object

Abaqus Pseudo-Builder class which allows users to customize the Abaqus Pseudo-Builder.

Parameters:

• builder – A Builder generated by waves.scons_extensions.abaqus_solver_builder_factory()

• override_cpus – Override the task-specific default number of CPUs. This kwarg value is most useful if propagated from a user-specified option at execution time. If None, Abaqus Pseudo-Builder tasks will use the task-specific default.

Warning

You must use an AbaqusSolver Builder generated from waves.scons_extensions.abaqus_solver_builder_factory(). Using the non-builder-factory waves.scons_extensions.abaqus_solver() (i.e. a Builder that does not use the program_options kwarg) is not supported.

SCons Pseudo-Builder for running Abaqus jobs.

This SCons Pseudo-Builder wraps the WAVES Abaqus builders to automatically adjust the Abaqus command, sources list, and target list when specifying restart jobs and user subroutines.

Note

Restart files that are only used by Abaqus/Explicit (i.e. .abq, .pac, and .sel) are not currently added to the source and target lists when specifying oldjob or write_restart. Use extra_sources and extra_targets to manually add them when needed.

Parameters:

• job – Abaqus job name without file extension.

• inp – Abaqus input file name with file extension. Defaults to job.inp.

• user – User subroutine.

• cpus – CPUs to use for simulation. Is superceded by override_cpus if provided during object instantiation. The CPUs option is escaped in the action string, i.e. changing the number of CPUs will not trigger a rebuild.

• processes – Number of MPI processes. This option is escaped in the action string, i.e. changing the number of MPI processes will not necessarily trigger a rebuild. For some Abaqus/Standard analyses that write restart files, if the number of MPI processes changes then the number of restart files will change and that will trigger a rebuild.

• oldjob – Name of job(s) to restart/import. If a single old job is specified, “-oldjob” will be added to the Abaqus command. If multiple old jobs are specified, “-oldjob” will not be added to the Abaqus command (users should use the *IMPORT, LIBRARY= syntax in the Abaqus input file).

• oldjob_restart_file_count – Number of MPI process-specific restart files generated by oldjob. For Abaqus Standard jobs, the number of restart files (specifically .mdl and .stt) will be determined by the number of MPI processes the job used. For example, an Abaqus Standard job on 2 MPI processes will not output a .mdl file, but will produce .mdl.0 and .mdl.1 files. When restarting/importing that Abaqus Standard job, specify oldjob_restart_file_count = 2. Abaqus Explicit restart files are not affected by the number of MPI processes and oldjob_restart_file_count = 1 should be specified when restarting/importing from an Abaqus Explicit job. If oldjob is a single Abaqus job, specify a single integer. If oldjob is a list of Abaqus jobs, specify a list of integers for job-specific restart files or a single integer to be applied to all old jobs.

• write_restart – If True, add restart files to target list. This is required if you want to use these restart files for a restart job.

• double – Passthrough option for Abaqus’ -double ${double}.

• extra_sources – Additional sources to supply to builder.

• extra_targets – Additional targets to supply to builder.

• extra_options – Additional Abaqus options to supply to builder. Should not include any Abaqus options available as kwargs, e.g. cpus, oldjob, user, input, job.

• kwargs – Any additional kwargs are passed through to the builder.

Returns:

All targets associated with Abaqus simulation.

        builder=env.AbaqusSolver,
        override_cpus=env.GetOption("solve_cpus")),
    "Abaqus",
)

To define a simple Abaqus simulation:

env.Abaqus(job='simulation_1')

The job name can differ from the input file name:

env.Abaqus(job='assembly_simulation_1', inp='simulation_1.inp')

Specifying a user subroutine automatically adds the user subroutine to the source list:

env.Abaqus(job='simulation_1', user='user.f')

If you write restart files, you can add the restart files to the target list with:

env.Abaqus(job='simulation_1', write_restart=True)

When running Abaqus Standard jobs using MPI parallelization, explicitly control the number of MPI processes as this affects the number of restart files:

env.Abaqus(job='simulation_1', write_restart=True, processes=4)

Accurately capturing the number of restart files is important when restarting/importing an analysis, as SCons will know to check that the required restart files exist and are up-to-date:

env.Abaqus(job='simulation_2', oldjob='simulation_1')

Multiple previous jobs can be specified if the Abaqus simulation imports from multiple ODBs:

env.Abaqus(job='simulation_2', oldjob=['simulation_1', 'simulation_1a'])

The number of MPI process-specific restart files for old jobs can be specified for one or multiple old jobs:

env.Abaqus(job='simulation_2', oldjob='simulation_1', oldjob_restart_file_count = 2)
env.Abaqus(job='simulation_2', oldjob=['simulation_1', 'simulation_1a'], oldjob_restart_file_count = [2, 4])

If your Abaqus job depends on files which aren’t detected by an implicit dependency scanner, you can add them to the source list directly:

env.Abaqus(job='simulation_1', user='user.f', extra_sources=['user_subroutine_input.csv'])

You can specify the default number of CPUs for the simulation:

env.Abaqus(job='simulation_1', cpus=4)

class waves.scons_extensions.QOIPseudoBuilder(

collection_dir: Path,

build_dir: Path,

update_expected: bool = False,

_program: str = 'waves',

)

Bases: object

SCons Pseudo-Builder class which allows users to customize the QOI Pseudo-Builder.

Warning

This pseudo-builder is considered experimental pending early adopter end user trial and feedback.

The QOI xarray data array and dataset handling for expected/calculated comparisons should be stable, but the output plotting and reporting formatting is subject to change.

Parameters:

• collection_dir – Root directory of QOI archive artifacts.

• build_dir – Root directory of SCons project build artifacts.

• updated_expected – Update the expected QOI CSV source files to match the calculated QOI values instead of comparing the calculated and expected values.

• _program – The WAVES command line program call. Intended for internal use by developers to perform in-repository system testing. End users should not change the default value of this argument.

__call__(

env: SConsEnvironment,

calculated: Path,

expected: Path | None = None,

archive: bool = False,

) → NodeList

SCons Pseudo-Builder for regression testing and archiving quantities of interest (QOIs).

This SCons Pseudo-Builder provides a convenient method for archiving and regression testing QOIs (such as critical simulation outputs). When requested, it aggregates the calculated values in a directory for easy archival. If expected values are specified, it compares them to the calculated values and reports any differences to a CSV file. If there are differences which exceed the user-specified tolerances, an error is raised. If self.update_expected is True, the expected CSV files (in the source tree) will be updated to match the calculated QOI values, and no comparison between the two will be performed.

Parameters:

• calculated – Path to CSV file containing calculated QOIs. See qoi.read_qoi_set() for the CSV format.

• expected –

  Path to CSV file containing expected QOI values and tolerances. See qoi.read_qoi_set() for the CSV format. See qoi.create_qoi() for the types of tolerances allowed. See qoi for how tolerances are checked.

  Each of the tolerances are checked independently. If any fail, an error is raised.

  If expected is not specified, then QOIs are archived but not compared to expected values. Either expected or archive=True must be specified. An expected QOI file without tolerances is meaningless; the regression test will always pass.

• archive – If True, add the calculated QOIs to self.collection_dir alongside other archived QOIs. To complete the archive, the QOI files collected in self.collection_dir should be copied to a read-only central location using waves qoi archive

Returns:

list of SCons Target. The list of targets associated with regression testing and archiving the QOIs. Building these targets will regression test the QOIs and output a CSV file which contains the exact differences between calculated and expected values. If archive == True, these targets will also include moving the calculated QOIs CSV file to the collection directory.

) → tuple[list, list]

Abaqus solver emitter for datacheck targets.

SCons emitter for waves.scons_extensions.abaqus_solver_builder_factory() based builders. Built on waves.scons_extensions.abaqus_solver_emitter_factory().

Appends the target list with job task keyword argument named targets before passing through the waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter() emitter.

Searches for the job task keyword argument and appends the target list with f"{job}{suffix}" targets using the suffixes list.

Searches for a file ending in the stdout extension. If none is found, creates a target by appending the stdout extension to the first target in the target list. The associated Builder requires at least one target for this reason. The stdout file is always placed at the end of the returned target list.

This is an SCons emitter function and not an emitter factory. The suffix arguments: suffixes and appending_suffixes are only relevant for developers writing new emitters which call this function as a base. The suffixes list emits targets where the suffix replaces the first target’s suffix, e.g. for target.ext emit a new target target.suffix. The appending suffixes list emits targets where the suffix appends the first target’s suffix, e.g. for target.ext emit a new target target.ext.appending_suffix.

The emitter will assume all emitted targets build in the current build directory. If the target(s) must be built in a build subdirectory, e.g. in a parameterized target build, then the first target must be provided with the build subdirectory, e.g. parameter_set1/target.ext. When in doubt, provide a STDOUT redirect file with the .stdout extension as a target, e.g. target.stdout or parameter_set1/target.stdout.

waves.scons_extensions.abaqus_extract(program: str = 'abaqus') → Builder

Abaqus ODB file extraction Builder.

This builder executes the odb_extract command line utility against an ODB file in the source list. The ODB file must be the first file in the source list. If there is more than one ODB file in the source list, all but the first file are ignored by odb_extract.

This builder is unique in that no targets are required. The Builder emitter will append the builder managed targets and odb_extract target name constructions automatically. The first target determines the working directory for the emitter targets. If the target(s) must be built in a build subdirectory, e.g. in a parameterized target build, then at least one target must be provided with the build subdirectory, e.g. parameter_set1/target.h5. When in doubt, provide the expected H5 file as a target, e.g. source[0].h5.

The target list may specify an output H5 file name that differs from the ODB file base name as new_name.h5. If the first file in the target list does not contain the *.h5 extension, or if there is no file in the target list, the target list will be prepended with a name matching the ODB file base name and the *.h5 extension.

The builder emitter appends the CSV file created by the abaqus odbreport command as executed by odb_extract unless delete_report_file is set to True.

This builder supports the keyword arguments: output_type, odb_report_args, delete_report_file with behavior as described in the ODB Extract command line interface.

Construct and return an Abaqus journal file SCons builder.

This builder requires that the journal file to execute is the first source in the list. The builder returned by this function accepts all SCons Builder arguments. The arguments of this function are also available as keyword arguments of the builder. When provided during task definition, the keyword arguments override the builder returned by this function.

Builder/Task keyword arguments

• program: The Abaqus command line executable absolute or relative path

• required: A space delimited string of Abaqus required arguments

• abaqus_options: The Abaqus command line options provided as a string

• journal_options: The journal file command line options provided as a string

• action_prefix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults

• action_suffix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults.

• environment_suffix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults.

At least one target must be specified. The first target determines the working directory for the builder’s action, as shown in the action code snippet below. The action changes the working directory to the first target’s parent directory prior to executing the journal file.

The Builder emitter will append the builder managed targets automatically. Appends target[0].abaqus_v6.env and target[0].stdout to the target list.

The emitter will assume all emitted targets build in the current build directory. If the target(s) must be built in a build subdirectory, e.g. in a parameterized target build, then the first target must be provided with the build subdirectory, e.g. parameter_set1/my_target.ext. When in doubt, provide a STDOUT redirect file as a target, e.g. target.stdout.

This builder factory extends waves.scons_extensions.first_target_builder_factory(). This builder factory uses the waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter(). At least one task target must be specified in the task definition and the last target will always be the expected STDOUT and STDERR redirection output file, TARGETS[-1] ending in *.stdout.

Warning

Users overriding the emitter keyword argument are responsible for providing an emitter with equivalent STDOUT file handling behavior as waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter() or updating the action_suffix option to match their emitter’s behavior.

The builder returned by this factory accepts all SCons Builder arguments. The arguments of this function are also available as keyword arguments of the builder. When provided during task definition, the task keyword arguments override the builder keyword arguments.

Parameters:

• environment – This variable is intended primarily for use with builders and tasks that can not execute from an SCons construction environment. For instance, when tasks execute on a remote server with SSH wrapped actions using waves.scons_extensions.ssh_builder_actions() and therefore must initialize the remote environment as part of the builder action.

• action_prefix – This variable is intended to perform directory change operations prior to program execution

• program – The Abaqus absolute or relative path

• program_required – Space delimited string of required Abaqus options and arguments that are crucial to builder behavior and should not be modified except by advanced users

• program_options – Space delimited string of optional Abaqus options and arguments that can be freely modified by the user

• subcommand – The shell separator for positional arguments used to separate Abaqus program from Abaqus journal file arguments and options

• subcommand_required – Space delimited string of required Abaqus journal file options and arguments that are crucial to builder behavior and should not be modified except by advanced users.

• subcommand_options – Space delimited string of optional Abaqus journal file options and arguments that can be freely modified by the user

• action_suffix – This variable is intended to perform program STDOUT and STDERR redirection operations.

• emitter – An SCons emitter function. This is not a keyword argument in the action string.

Construct and return an Abaqus solver SCons builder.

This builder requires that the root input file is the first source in the list. The builder returned by this function accepts all SCons Builder arguments. The arguments of this function are also available as keyword arguments of the builder. When provided during task definition, the keyword arguments override the builder returned by this function.

Builder/Task keyword arguments

• program: The Abaqus command line executable absolute or relative path

• required: A space delimited string of Abaqus required arguments

• job_name: The job name string. If not specified job_name defaults to the root input file stem. The Builder

  emitter will append common Abaqus output files as targets automatically from the job_name, e.g. job_name.odb.

• abaqus_options: The Abaqus command line options provided as a string.

• suffixes: override the emitter targets with a new list of extensions, e.g. AbaqusSolver(target=[], source=["input.inp"], suffixes=[".odb"]) will emit only one file named job_name.odb.

• action_prefix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults

• action_suffix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults.

• environment_suffix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults.

The first target determines the working directory for the builder’s action, as shown in the action code snippet below. The action changes the working directory to the first target’s parent directory prior to executing the journal file.

This builder is unique in that no targets are required. The Builder emitter will append the builder managed targets automatically. The target list only appends those extensions which are common to Abaqus analysis operations. Some extensions may need to be added explicitly according to the Abaqus simulation solver, type, or options. If you find that SCons isn’t automatically cleaning some Abaqus output files, they are not in the automatically appended target list.

The emitter will assume all emitted targets build in the current build directory. If the target(s) must be built in a build subdirectory, e.g. in a parameterized target build, then the first target must be provided with the build subdirectory, e.g. parameter_set1/job_name.odb. When in doubt, provide a STDOUT redirect file as a target, e.g. target.stdout.

The -interactive option is always appended to the builder action to avoid exiting the Abaqus task before the simulation is complete. The -ask_delete no option is always appended to the builder action to overwrite existing files in programmatic execution, where it is assumed that the Abaqus solver target(s) should be re-built when their source files change.

) → Callable[[list, list, SConsEnvironment], tuple]

Abaqus solver emitter factory.

SCons emitter factory that returns emitters for waves.scons_extensions.abaqus_solver_builder_factory() based builders.

Emitters returned by this factory append the target list with job task keyword argument named targets before passing through the waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter() emitter.

Searches for the job task keyword argument and appends the target list with f"{job}{suffix}" targets using the suffixes list.

Searches for a file ending in the stdout extension. If none is found, creates a target by appending the stdout extension to the first target in the target list. The associated Builder requires at least one target for this reason. The stdout file is always placed at the end of the returned target list.

The suffixes list emits targets where the suffix replaces the first target’s suffix, e.g. for target.ext emit a new target target.suffix. The appending suffixes list emits targets where the suffix appends the first target’s suffix, e.g. for target.ext emit a new target target.ext.appending_suffix.

The emitter will assume all emitted targets build in the current build directory. If the target(s) must be built in a build subdirectory, e.g. in a parameterized target build, then the first target must be provided with the build subdirectory, e.g. parameter_set1/target.ext. When in doubt, provide a STDOUT redirect file with the .stdout extension as a target, e.g. target.stdout or parameter_set1/target.stdout.

Abaqus solver emitter for Standard targets.

SCons emitter for waves.scons_extensions.abaqus_solver_builder_factory() based builders. Built on waves.scons_extensions.abaqus_solver_emitter_factory().

Appends the target list with job task keyword argument named targets before passing through the waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter() emitter.

Searches for the job task keyword argument and appends the target list with f"{job}{suffix}" targets using the suffixes list.

Searches for a file ending in the stdout extension. If none is found, creates a target by appending the stdout extension to the first target in the target list. The associated Builder requires at least one target for this reason. The stdout file is always placed at the end of the returned target list.

This is an SCons emitter function and not an emitter factory. The suffix arguments: suffixes and appending_suffixes are only relevant for developers writing new emitters which call this function as a base. The suffixes list emits targets where the suffix replaces the first target’s suffix, e.g. for target.ext emit a new target target.suffix. The appending suffixes list emits targets where the suffix appends the first target’s suffix, e.g. for target.ext emit a new target target.ext.appending_suffix.

The emitter will assume all emitted targets build in the current build directory. If the target(s) must be built in a build subdirectory, e.g. in a parameterized target build, then the first target must be provided with the build subdirectory, e.g. parameter_set1/target.ext.

) → Builder

Template builder factory returning a builder with no emitter.

This builder provides a template action string with placeholder keyword arguments in the action string. The default behavior will not do anything unless the program or subcommand argument is updated to include an executable program. Because this builder has no emitter, all task targets must be fully specified in the task definition. See waves.scons_extensions.first_target_builder_factory() for an example of the default options used by most WAVES builders.

action string construction

${environment} ${action_prefix} ${program} ${program_required} ${program_options} ${subcommand} ${subcommand_required} ${subcommand_options} ${action_suffix}

action string default expansion

${environment} ${action_prefix} ${program} ${program_required} ${program_options} ${subcommand} ${subcommand_required} ${subcommand_options} ${action_suffix}

Parameters:

• environment – This variable is intended primarily for use with builders and tasks that can not execute from an SCons construction environment. For instance, when tasks execute on a remote server with SSH wrapped actions using waves.scons_extensions.ssh_builder_actions() and therefore must initialize the remote environment as part of the builder action.

• action_prefix – This variable is intended to perform directory change operations prior to program execution. By default, SCons performs actions in the parent directory of the SConstruct file. However, many computational science and engineering programs leave output files in the current working directory, so it is convenient and sometimes necessary to change to the target’s parent directory prior to execution.

• program – This variable is intended to contain the primary command line executable absolute or relative path

• program_required – This variable is intended to contain a space delimited string of required program options and arguments that are crucial to builder behavior and should not be modified except by advanced users.

• program_options – This variable is intended to contain a space delimited string of optional program options and arguments that can be freely modified by the user.

• subcommand – This variable is intended to contain the program’s subcommand. If the program variable is set to a launch controlling program, e.g. mpirun or charmrun, then the subcommand may need to contain the full target executable program and any subcommands.

• subcommand_required – This variable is intended to contain a space delimited string of required subcommand options and arguments that are crucial to builder behavior and should not be modified except by advanced users.

• subcommand_options – This variable is intended to contain a space delimited string of optional subcommand options and arguments that can be freely modified by the user.

• action_suffix – This variable is intended to perform program STDOUT and STDERR redirection operations. By default, SCons streams all STDOUT and STDERR to the terminal. However, in long or parallel workflows this may clutter the terminal and make it difficult to isolate critical debugging information, so it is convenient to redirect each program’s output to a task specific log file for later inspection and troubleshooting.

• emitter – An SCons emitter function. This is not a keyword argument in the action string.

• kwargs – Any additional keyword arguments are passed directly to the SCons builder object.

Returns:

SCons template builder

waves.scons_extensions.calculix_builder_factory(environment: str = '', action_prefix: str = 'cd ${TARGET.dir.abspath} &&', program: str = 'ccx', program_required: str = '-i ${SOURCE.filebase}', program_options: str = '', subcommand: str = '', subcommand_required: str = '', subcommand_options: str = '', action_suffix: str = '> ${TARGETS[-1].abspath} 2>&1', emitter: ~collections.abc.Callable[[list, list, ~SCons.Script.SConscript.SConsEnvironment], tuple[list, list]] = <function first_target_emitter>, **kwargs) → Builder

CalculiX builder factory.

Warning

This is an experimental builder. It is subject to change without warning.

This builder factory extends waves.scons_extensions.first_target_builder_factory(). This builder factory uses the waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter(). At least one task target must be specified in the task definition and the last target will always be the expected STDOUT and STDERR redirection output file, TARGETS[-1] ending in *.stdout.

Warning

Users overriding the emitter keyword argument are responsible for providing an emitter with equivalent STDOUT file handling behavior as waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter() or updating the action_suffix option to match their emitter’s behavior.

Warning

CalculiX always appends the .inp extension to the input file argument. Stripping the extension in the builder requires a file basename without preceding relative or absolute path. This builder is fragile to current working directory. Most users should not modify the action_prefix.

With the default options this builder requires the following sources file provided in the order:

1. CalculiX input file: *.inp

action string construction

CalculiX builder

waves.scons_extensions.catenate_actions(**outer_kwargs) → Callable

Apply the catenate_builder_actions() action modifications to a function that returns an SCons Builder.

Accepts the same keyword arguments as the waves.scons_extensions.catenate_builder_actions()

import SCons.Builder
import waves

@waves.scons_extensions.catenate_actions
def my_builder():
    return SCons.Builder.Builder(action=["echo $SOURCE > $TARGET", "echo $SOURCE >> $TARGET"])

waves.scons_extensions.catenate_builder_actions(

builder: Builder,

program: str = '',

options: str = '',

) → Builder

Catenate a builder’s arguments and prepend the program and options.

${program} ${options} "action one && action two"

Parameters:

• builder – The SCons builder to modify

• program – wrapping executable

• options – options for the wrapping executable

Returns:

modified builder

waves.scons_extensions.check_program(env: SConsEnvironment, prog_name: str) → str | None

Return the absolute path of the requested program or None.

Replacement for SCons CheckProg like behavior without an SCons configure object.

Example search for an executable named “program”

import waves

env = Environment()
env.AddMethod(waves.scons_extensions.check_program, "CheckProgram")
env["PROGRAM"] = env.CheckProgram(["program"])

Parameters:

• env – The SCons construction environment object to modify

• prog_name – string program name to search in the construction environment path

waves.scons_extensions.conda_environment(

program: str = 'conda',

subcommand: str = 'env export',

required: str = '--file ${TARGET.abspath}',

options: str = '',

action_prefix: str = 'cd ${TARGET.dir.abspath} &&',

) → Builder

Create a Conda environment file with conda env export.

This builder is intended to help WAVES workflows document the Conda environment used in the current build. The arguments of this function are also available as keyword arguments of the builder. When provided during task definition, the keyword arguments override the builder returned by this function.

Builder/Task keyword arguments

• program: The Conda command line executable absolute or relative path

• subcommand: The Conda environment export subcommand

• required: A space delimited string of subcommand required arguments

• options: A space delimited string of subcommand optional arguments

• action_prefix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults

At least one target must be specified. The first target determines the working directory for the builder’s action, as shown in the action code snippet below. The action changes the working directory to the first target’s parent directory prior to creating the Conda environment file.

Conda environment builder action default expansion

${action_prefix} ${program} ${subcommand} ${required} ${options}"

Conda environment builder action default expansion

cd ${TARGET.dir.abspath} && conda env export --file ${TARGET.abspath} ${options}

The modsim owner may choose to re-use this builder throughout their project configuration to provide various levels of granularity in the recorded Conda environment state. It’s recommended to include this builder at least once for any workflows that also use the waves.scons_extensions.python_builder_factory(). The builder may be re-used once per build sub-directory to provide more granular build environment reproducibility in the event that sub-builds are run at different times with variations in the active Conda environment. For per-Python script task environment reproducibility, the builder source list can be linked to the output of a waves.scons_extensions.python_builder_factory() task with a target environment file name to match.

The first recommendation, always building the project wide Conda environment file, is demonstrated in the example usage below.

SConstruct

import waves
env = Environment()
env.Append(BUILDERS={"CondaEnvironment": waves.scons_extensions.conda_environment()})
environment_target = env.CondaEnvironment(target=["environment.yaml"])
env.AlwaysBuild(environment_target)

Parameters:

• program – The Conda command line executable absolute or relative path

• subcommand – The Conda environment export subcommand

• required – A space delimited string of subcommand required arguments

• options – A space delimited string of subcommand optional arguments

• action_prefix – Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults

Returns:

Conda environment builder

waves.scons_extensions.construct_action_list(

actions: Sequence[str],

prefix: str = '${action_prefix}',

suffix: str = '',

) → Iterable[str]

Return an action list with a common pre/post-fix.

Returns the constructed action list with pre/post fix strings as

f"{prefix} {new_action} {suffix}"

where SCons action objects are converted to their string representation. If a string is passed instead of a list, it is first converted to a list. If an empty list is passed, and empty list is returned.

Parameters:

• actions – List of action strings

• prefix – Common prefix to prepend to each action

• suffix – Common suffix to append to each action

Returns:

action list

waves.scons_extensions.copy_substfile(

env: SConsEnvironment,

source_list: list,

substitution_dictionary: dict | None = None,

build_subdirectory: str | Path = '.',

symlink: bool = False,

) → NodeList

Pseudo-builder to copy source list to build directory and perform template substitutions on *.in filenames.

SCons Pseudo-Builder to chain two builders: a builder with the SCons Copy action and the SCons Substfile builders. Files are first copied to the build (variant) directory and then template substitution is performed on template files (any file ending with *.in suffix) to create a file without the template suffix.

When pseudo-builders are added to the environment with the SCons AddMethod function they can be accessed with the same syntax as a normal builder. When called from the construction environment, the env argument is omitted. See the example below.

To avoid dependency cycles, the source file(s) should be passed by absolute path.

SConstruct

import pathlib
import waves
current_directory = pathlib.Path(Dir(".").abspath)
env = Environment()
env.AddMethod(waves.scons_extensions.copy_substfile, "CopySubstfile")
source_list = [
    "#/subdir3/file_three.ext",              # File found with respect to project root directory using SCons notation
    current_directory / file_one.ext,        # File found in current SConscript directory
    current_directory / "subdir2/file_two",  # File found below current SConscript directory
    current_directory / "file_four.ext.in"   # File with substitutions matching substitution dictionary keys
]
substitution_dictionary = {
    "@variable_one@": "value_one"
}
env.CopySubstfile(source_list, substitution_dictionary=substitution_dictionary)

Parameters:

• env – An SCons construction environment to use when defining the targets.

• source_list – List of pathlike objects or strings. Will be converted to list of pathlib.Path objects.

• substitution_dictionary – key: value pairs for template substitution. The keys must contain the optional template characters if present, e.g. @variable@. The template character, e.g. @, can be anything that works in the SCons Substfile builder.

• build_subdirectory – build subdirectory relative path prepended to target files

• symlink – Whether symbolic links are created as new symbolic links. If true, symbolic links are shallow copies as a new symbolic link. If false, symbolic links are copied as a new file (dereferenced).

Returns:

SCons NodeList of Copy and Substfile target nodes

waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter(

target: list,

source: list,

env: SConsEnvironment,

suffixes: Iterable[str] | None = None,

appending_suffixes: Iterable[str] | None = None,

stdout_extension: str = '.stdout',

) → tuple[list, list]

SCons emitter function that emits new targets based on the first target.

Searches for a file ending in the stdout extension. If none is found, creates a target by appending the stdout extension to the first target in the target list. The associated Builder requires at least one target for this reason. The stdout file is always placed at the end of the returned target list.

This is an SCons emitter function and not an emitter factory. The suffix arguments: suffixes and appending_suffixes are only relevant for developers writing new emitters which call this function as a base. The suffixes list emits targets where the suffix replaces the first target’s suffix, e.g. for target.ext emit a new target target.suffix. The appending suffixes list emits targets where the suffix appends the first target’s suffix, e.g. for target.ext emit a new target target.ext.appending_suffix.

The emitter will assume all emitted targets build in the current build directory. If the target(s) must be built in a build subdirectory, e.g. in a parameterized target build, then the first target must be provided with the build subdirectory, e.g. parameter_set1/target.ext. When in doubt, provide a STDOUT redirect file with the .stdout extension as a target, e.g. target.stdout or parameter_set1/target.stdout.

Parameters:

• target – The target file list of strings

• source – The source file list of SCons.Node.FS.File objects

• env – The builder’s SCons construction environment object

• suffixes – Suffixes which should replace the first target’s extension

• appending_suffixes – Suffixes which should append the first target’s extension

• stdout_extension – The extension used by the STDOUT/STDERR redirect file

Returns:

target, source

) → Builder

Matlab script SCons builder.

Warning

Experimental implementation is subject to change

This builder requires that the Matlab script to execute is the first source in the list. The builder returned by this function accepts all SCons Builder arguments. The arguments of this function are also available as keyword arguments of the builder. When provided during task definition, the keyword arguments override the builder returned by this function.

Builder/Task keyword arguments

• program: The Matlab command line executable absolute or relative path

• matlab_options: The Matlab command line options provided as a string.

• script_options: The Matlab function interface options in Matlab syntax and provided as a string.

• action_prefix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults

• action_suffix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults.

• environment_suffix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults.

The parent directory absolute path is added to the Matlab path variable prior to execution. All required Matlab files should be co-located in the same source directory.

At least one target must be specified. The first target determines the working directory for the builder’s action, as shown in the action code snippet below. The action changes the working directory to the first target’s parent directory prior to executing the python script.

The Builder emitter will append the builder managed targets automatically. Appends target[0].matlab.env and ``target[0].stdout to the target list.

The emitter will assume all emitted targets build in the current build directory. If the target(s) must be built in a build subdirectory, e.g. in a parameterized target build, then the first target must be provided with the build subdirectory, e.g. parameter_set1/my_target.ext. When in doubt, provide a STDOUT redirect file as a target, e.g. target.stdout.

Wrap the SCons SConscript call to unpack parameter generators.

Always overrides the exports dictionary with set_name and parameters keys. When study is a dictionary or parameter generator, the parameters are overridden. When study is a parameter generator, the set_name is overridden.

• If the study is a WAVES parameter generator object, call SConscript once per set_name and parameters in the generator’s parameter study dictionary.

• If the study is a dict, call SConscript with the study as parameters and use the set_name from the method API.

• In all other cases, the SConscript call is given the set_name from the method API and an empty parameters dictionary.

Parameters:

• env – SCons construction environment. Do not provide when using this function as a construction environment method, e.g. env.ParameterStudySConscript.

• args – All positional arguments are passed through to the SConscript call directly

• variant_dir – The SConscript API variant directory argument

• exports – Dictionary of {key: value} pairs for the exports variables. Must use the dictionary style because the calling script’s namespace is not available to the function namespace.

• study – Parameter generator or dictionary simulation parameters

• set_name – Set name to use when not provided a study. Overridden by the study set names when study is a parameter generator.

• kwargs – All other keyword arguments are passed through to the SConscript call directly

• subdirectories – Switch to use parameter generator study set names as subdirectories. Ignored when study is not a parameter generator.

Returns:

SConscript Export() variables. When called with a parameter generator study, the Export() variables are returned as a list with one entry per parameter set.

Raises:

waves.scons_extensions.parameter_study_task(

env: SConsEnvironment,

*args,

**kwargs,

) → NodeList

Parameter study pseudo-builder.

SCons Pseudo-Builder aids in task construction for WAVES parameter studies with any SCons builder. Works with WAVES parameter generators or parameter dictionaries to reduce parameter study task definition boilerplate and make nominal workflow definitions directly re-usable in parameter studies.

• If the study is a WAVES parameter generator object, loop over the parameter sets and replace @{set_name} in any *args and **kwargs that are strings, paths, or lists of strings and paths.

• If the study is a dict(), unpack the dictionary as keyword arguments directly into the builder.

• In all other cases, the task is passed through unchanged to the builder and the study variable is ignored.

When chaining parameter study tasks, arguments belonging to the parameter study can be prefixed by the template @{set_name}source.ext. If the task uses a parameter study, the set name prefix will be replaced to match the task path modifications, e.g. parameter_set0_source.ext or parameter_set0/source.ext depending on the subdirectories boolean. If the task is not part of a parameter study, the set name will be removed from the source, e.g. source.ext. The @ symbol is used as the delimiter to reduce with clashes in shell variable syntax and SCons substitution syntax.

When pseudo-builders are added to the environment with the SCons AddMethod function they can be accessed with the same syntax as a normal builder. When called from the construction environment, the env argument is omitted.

This pseudo-builder is most powerful when used in an SConscript call to a separate workflow configuration file. The SConscript file can then be called with a nominal parameter dictionary or with a parameter generator object. See the example below.

Python builder factory.

This builder factory extends waves.scons_extensions.first_target_builder_factory(). This builder factory uses the waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter(). At least one task target must be specified in the task definition and the last target will always be the expected STDOUT and STDERR redirection output file, TARGETS[-1] ending in *.stdout.

Warning

Users overriding the emitter keyword argument are responsible for providing an emitter with equivalent STDOUT file handling behavior as waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter() or updating the action_suffix option to match their emitter’s behavior.

With the default options this builder requires the following sources file provided in the order:

waves.scons_extensions.sbatch(

program: str = 'sbatch',

required: str = '--wait --output=${TARGETS[-1].abspath}',

action_prefix: str = 'cd ${TARGET.dir.abspath} &&',

) → Builder

SLURM sbatch SCons builder.

The builder returned by this function accepts all SCons Builder arguments. The arguments of this function are also available as keyword arguments of the builder. When provided during task definition, the keyword arguments override the builder returned by this function.

Builder/Task keyword arguments

• program: The sbatch command line executable absolute or relative path

• required: A space delimited string of sbatch required arguments

• slurm_job: The command to submit with sbatch

• sbatch_options: Optional sbatch options

• action_prefix: Advanced behavior. Most users should accept the defaults

The builder does not use a SLURM batch script. Instead, it requires the slurm_job variable to be defined with the command string to execute.

At least one target must be specified. The first target determines the working directory for the builder’s action, as shown in the action code snippet below. The action changes the working directory to the first target’s parent directory prior to executing the journal file.

The Builder emitter will append the builder managed targets automatically. Appends target[0].stdout to the target list.

waves.scons_extensions.shell_environment(

command: str,

shell: str = 'bash',

cache: str | None = None,

overwrite_cache: bool = False,

) → SConsEnvironment

Return an SCons shell environment from a cached file or by running a shell command.

If the environment is created successfully and a cache file is requested, the cache file is _always_ written. The overwrite_cache behavior forces the shell command execution, even when the cache file is present. If the command fails (raising a subprocess.CalledProcessError) the captured output is printed to STDERR before re-raising the exception.

Warning

Currently assumes a nix flavored shell: sh, bash, zsh, csh, tcsh. May work with any shell supporting command construction as below.

{shell} -c "{command} && env -0"

The method may fail if the command produces stdout that does not terminate in a newline. Redirect command output away from stdout if this causes problems, e.g. command = 'command > /dev/null && command two > /dev/null' in most shells.

SConstruct

import waves
env = waves.scons_extensions.shell_environment("source my_script.sh")

Parameters:

• command – the shell command to execute

• shell – the shell to use when executing command by absolute or relative path

• cache – absolute or relative path to read/write a shell environment dictionary. Will be written as YAML formatted file regardless of extension.

• overwrite_cache – Ignore previously cached files if they exist.

Returns:

SCons shell environment

Raises:

subprocess.CalledProcessError – Print the captured output and re-raise exception when the shell command returns a non-zero exit status.

At least one task target must be specified in the task definition and the last target will always be the expected STDOUT and STDERR redirection output file, TARGETS[-1] ending in *.stdout.

Warning

Users overriding the emitter keyword argument are responsible for providing an emitter with equivalent STDOUT file handling behavior as waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter() or updating the action_suffix option to match their emitter’s behavior.

With the default options this builder requires the following sources file provided in the order:

1. Sierra input file: *.i

action string construction

${environment} ${action_prefix} ${program} ${program_required} ${program_options} ${subcommand} ${subcommand_required} ${subcommand_options} ${action_suffix}

action string default expansion

${environment} cd ${TARGET.dir.abspath} && sierra ${program_required} ${program_options} adagio ${SOURCE.abspath} ${subcommand_options} > ${TARGETS[-1].abspath} 2>&1

The builder returned by this factory accepts all SCons Builder arguments. The arguments of this function are also available as keyword arguments of the builder. When provided during task definition, the task keyword arguments override the builder keyword arguments.

Parameters:

• environment – This variable is intended primarily for use with builders and tasks that can not execute from an SCons construction environment. For instance, when tasks execute on a remote server with SSH wrapped actions using waves.scons_extensions.ssh_builder_actions() and therefore must initialize the remote environment as part of the builder action.

• action_prefix – This variable is intended to perform directory change operations prior to program execution

• program – The Sierra absolute or relative path

• program_required – Space delimited string of required Sierra options and arguments that are crucial to builder behavior and should not be modified except by advanced users

• program_options – Space delimited string of optional Sierra options and arguments that can be freely modified by the user

• subcommand – The Sierra application absolute or relative path

• subcommand_required – Space delimited string of required Sierra application options and arguments that are crucial to builder behavior and should not be modified except by advanced users.

• subcommand_options – Space delimited string of optional Sierra application options and arguments that can be freely modified by the user

• action_suffix – This variable is intended to perform program STDOUT and STDERR redirection operations.

• emitter – An SCons emitter function. This is not a keyword argument in the action string.

• kwargs – Any additional keyword arguments are passed directly to the SCons builder object.

Returns:

Sierra builder

waves.scons_extensions.ssh_builder_actions(

builder: Builder,

remote_server: str = '',

remote_directory: str = '',

rsync_push_options: str = '-rlptv',

rsync_pull_options: str = '-rlptv',

ssh_options: str = '',

) → Builder

Wrap and modify a builder’s action list with remote copy operations and SSH commands.

Warning

This builder does not provide asynchronous server-client behavior. The local/client machine must maintain the SSH connection continuously throughout the duration of the task. If the SSH connection is interrupted, the task will fail. This makes SSH wrapped builders fragile with respect to network connectivity. Users are strongly encouraged to seek solutions that allow full software installation and full workflow execution on the target compute server. If mixed server execution is required, a build directory on a shared network drive and interrupted workflow execution should be preferred over SSH wrapped builders.

If the remote server and remote directory strings are not specified at builder instantation, then the task definitions must specify these keyword arguments. If a portion of the remote server and/or remote directory are known to be constant across all possible tasks, users may define their own substitution keyword arguments. For example, the following remote directory uses common leading path elements and introduces a new keyword variable task_directory to allow per-task changes to the remote directory: remote_directory="/path/to/base/build/${task_directory}".

Warning

The waves.scons_extensions.ssh_builder_actions() is a work-in-progress solution with some assumptions specific to the action construction used by WAVES. It _should_ work for most basic builders, but adapting this function to users’ custom builders will probably require some advanced SCons knowledge and inspection of the waves.scons_extensions_ssh_builder_actions() implementation.

Builder/Task keyword arguments

• remote_server: remote server where the original builder’s actions should be executed

• remote_directory: absolute or relative path where the original builder’s actions should be executed.

• rsync_push_options: rsync options when pushing sources to the remote server

• rsync_pull_options: rsync options when pulling remote directory from the remote server

• ssh_options: SSH options when running the original builder’s actions on the remote server

Design assumptions

• Creates the remote_directory with mkdir -p. mkdir must exist on the remote_server.

• Copies all source files to a flat remote_directory with rsync. rsync must exist on the local system.

• Replaces instances of cd ${TARGET.dir.abspath} && with cd ${remote_directory} && in the original builder actions and keyword arguments.

• Replaces instances of SOURCE.abspath or SOURCES.abspath with SOURCE[S].file in the original builder actions and keyword arguments.

• Replaces instances of SOURCES[0-9]/TARGETS[0-9].abspath with SOURCES[0-9]/TARGETS[0-9].file in the original builder action and keyword arguments.

• Prefixes all original builder actions with cd ${remote_directory} &&.

• All original builder actions are wrapped in single quotes as '{original action}' to preserve the && as part of the remote_server command. Shell variables, e.g. $USER, will not be expanded on the remote_server. If quotes are included in the original builder actions, they should be double quotes.

• Returns the entire remote_directory to the original builder ${TARGET.dir.abspath} with rysnc. rsync must exist on the local system.

Truchas builder factory.

Warning

This is an experimental builder. It is subject to change without warning.

Warning

This builder is not included in the regression test suite yet. Contact the development team if you encounter problems or have recommendations for improved design behavior.

This builder factory extends waves.scons_extensions.first_target_builder_factory(). This builder factory uses the waves.scons_extensions.first_target_emitter(). At least one task target must be specified in the task definition and the last target will always be the expected STDOUT and STDERR redirection output file, TARGETS[-1] ending in *.stdout.

Warning

Note that this builder’s action prefix is different from other builders. Truchas output control produces a build subdirectory, so the action prefix moves up two directories above the expected output instead of one. All Truchas output targets must include the requested output directory and the output directory name must match the target file basename, e.g. target/target.log and parameter_set1/target/target.log.

With the default options this builder requires the following sources file provided in the order:

1. Truchas input file: *.inp

With the default options this builder requires the following target file provided in the order:

1. Truchas output log with desired output directory: target/target.log

Parameter Generators

Provide build system compatible parameter generators for use as an external API module.

Will raise RuntimeError or a derived class of waves.exceptions.WAVESError to allow the CLI implementation to convert stack-trace/exceptions into STDERR message and non-zero exit codes.

class waves.parameter_generators.CartesianProduct(

parameter_schema: dict,

output_file_template: str | None = None,

output_file: str | Path | None = None,

output_file_type: Literal['h5', 'yaml'] = 'h5',

set_name_template: str = 'parameter_set@number',

previous_parameter_study: str | Path | None = None,

require_previous_parameter_study: bool = False,

overwrite: bool = False,

write_meta: bool = False,

**kwargs,

)

Bases: ParameterGenerator

Builds a cartesian product parameter study.

Parameters must be scalar valued integers, floats, strings, or booleans

Parameters:

• parameter_schema – The YAML loaded parameter study schema dictionary - {parameter_name: schema value} CartesianProduct expects “schema value” to be an iterable. For example, when read from a YAML file “schema value” will be a Python list. Each parameter’s values must have a consistent data type, but data type may vary between parameters.

• output_file_template – Output file name template for multiple file output of the parameter study. Required if parameter sets will be written to files instead of printed to STDOUT. May contain pathseps for an absolute or relative path template. May contain the @number set number placeholder in the file basename but not in the path. If the placeholder is not found it will be appended to the template string. Output files are overwritten if the content of the file has changed or if overwrite is True. output_file_template and output_file are mutually exclusive.

• output_file – Output file name for single file output of the parameter study. Required if parameter sets will be written to a file instead of printed to STDOUT. May contain pathseps for an absolute or relative path. Output file is overwritten if the content of the file has changed or if overwrite is True. output_file and output_file_template are mutually exclusive.

• output_file_type – Output file syntax or type. Options are: ‘yaml’, ‘h5’.

• set_name_template – Parameter set name template. Overridden by output_file_template, if provided.

• previous_parameter_study – A relative or absolute file path to a previously created parameter study Xarray Dataset. If a previous parameter study exists, it is merged into the current study upon generation. Set name to content associations of the previous study are preserved when the parameter spaces between the previous and current study are identical. If the parameter spaces are unique, the current study will propagate the parameter spaces to resolve them. This will break set name to content associations of the previous study.

• require_previous_parameter_study – Raise a RuntimeError if the previous parameter study file is missing.

• overwrite – Overwrite existing output files

• write_meta – Write a meta file named “parameter_study_meta.txt” containing the parameter set file names. Useful for command line execution with build systems that require an explicit file list for target creation.

Variables:

self.parameter_study – The final parameter study XArray Dataset object

Raises:

• waves.exceptions.MutuallyExclusiveError – If the mutually exclusive output file template and output file options are both specified

• waves.exceptions.APIError – If an unknown output file type is requested

• RuntimeError – If a previous parameter study file is specified and missing, and require_previous_parameter_study is True

• waves.exceptions.SchemaValidationError –

  • Parameter schema is not a dictionary

  • Parameter key is not a supported iterable: set, tuple, list

Example:

>>> import waves
>>> parameter_schema = {
...     'parameter_1': [1, 2],
...     'parameter_2': ['a', 'b']
... }
>>> parameter_generator = waves.parameter_generators.CartesianProduct(parameter_schema)

parameter_study_to_dict() → dict[str, dict[str, Any]]

Return parameter study as a dictionary.

Used for iterating on parameter sets in an SCons workflow with parameter substitution dictionaries, e.g.

>>> for set_name, parameters in parameter_generator.parameter_study_to_dict().items():
...     print(f"{set_name}: {parameters}")
...
parameter_set0: {'parameter_1': 1, 'parameter_2': 'a'}
parameter_set1: {'parameter_1': 1, 'parameter_2': 'b'}
parameter_set2: {'parameter_1': 2, 'parameter_2': 'a'}
parameter_set3: {'parameter_1': 2, 'parameter_2': 'b'}

Returns:

parameter study sets and samples as a dictionary: {set_name: {parameter: value}, …}

write(output_file_type: Literal['h5', 'yaml'] | None = None, dry_run: bool = False) → None

Write the parameter study to STDOUT or an output file.

Writes to STDOUT by default. Requires non-default output_file_template or output_file specification to write to files.

If printing to STDOUT, print all parameter sets together. If printing to files, overwrite when contents of existing files have changed. If overwrite is specified, overwrite all parameter set files. If a dry run is requested print file-content associations for files that would have been written.

Writes parameter set files in YAML syntax by default. Output formatting is controlled by output_file_type.

parameter_1: 1
parameter_2: a

Parameters:

• output_file_type – Output file syntax or type. Options are: ‘yaml’, ‘h5’.

• dry_run – Print contents of new parameter study output files to STDOUT and exit

**kwargs,

)

Bases: ParameterGenerator

Builds a custom parameter study from user-specified values.

Parameters must be scalar valued integers, floats, strings, or booleans

Parameters:

• parameter_schema – Dictionary with two keys: parameter_samples and parameter_names. Parameter samples in the form of a 2D array with shape M x N, where M is the number of parameter sets and N is the number of parameters. Parameter names in the form of a 1D array with length N. When creating a parameter_samples array with mixed type (e.g. string and floats) use dtype=object to preserve the mixed types and avoid casting all values to a common type (e.g. all your floats will become strings). Each parameter’s values must have a consistent data type, but data type may vary between parameters.

• output_file_template – Output file name template for multiple file output of the parameter study. Required if parameter sets will be written to files instead of printed to STDOUT. May contain pathseps for an absolute or relative path template. May contain the @number set number placeholder in the file basename but not in the path. If the placeholder is not found it will be appended to the template string. Output files are overwritten if the content of the file has changed or if overwrite is True. output_file_template and output_file are mutually exclusive.

• output_file – Output file name for single file output of the parameter study. Required if parameter sets will be written to a file instead of printed to STDOUT. May contain pathseps for an absolute or relative path. Output file is overwritten if the content of the file has changed or if overwrite is True. output_file and output_file_template are mutually exclusive.

• output_file_type – Output file syntax or type. Options are: ‘yaml’, ‘h5’.

• set_name_template – Parameter set name template. Overridden by output_file_template, if provided.

• previous_parameter_study – A relative or absolute file path to a previously created parameter study Xarray Dataset. If a previous parameter study exists, it is merged into the current study upon generation. Set name to content associations of the previous study are preserved when the parameter spaces between the previous and current study are identical. If the parameter spaces are unique, the current study will propagate the parameter spaces to resolve them. This will break set name to content associations of the previous study.

• require_previous_parameter_study – Raise a RuntimeError if the previous parameter study file is missing.

• overwrite – Overwrite existing output files

• write_meta – Write a meta file named “parameter_study_meta.txt” containing the parameter set file names. Useful for command line execution with build systems that require an explicit file list for target creation.

Variables:

self.parameter_study – The final parameter study XArray Dataset object

Raises:

• waves.exceptions.MutuallyExclusiveError – If the mutually exclusive output file template and output file options are both specified

• waves.exceptions.APIError – If an unknown output file type is requested

• RuntimeError – If a previous parameter study file is specified and missing, and require_previous_parameter_study is True

• waves.exceptions.SchemaValidationError –

  • Parameter schema is not a dictionary

  • Parameter schema does not contain the parameter_names key

  • Parameter schema does not contain the parameter_samples key

  • The parameter_samples value is an improperly shaped array

Example:

>>> import waves
>>> import numpy
>>> parameter_schema = dict(
...     parameter_samples = numpy.array([[1.0, 'a', 5], [2.0, 'b', 6]], dtype=object),
...     parameter_names = numpy.array(['height', 'prefix', 'index']))

Data variables:
    height        (set_hash) object 1.0 2.0
    prefix        (set_hash) object 'a' 'b'
    index         (set_hash) object 5 6

parameter_study_to_dict() → dict[str, dict[str, Any]]

Return parameter study as a dictionary.

Used for iterating on parameter sets in an SCons workflow with parameter substitution dictionaries, e.g.

>>> for set_name, parameters in parameter_generator.parameter_study_to_dict().items():

Writes to STDOUT by default. Requires non-default output_file_template or output_file specification to write to files.

If printing to STDOUT, print all parameter sets together. If printing to files, overwrite when contents of existing files have changed. If overwrite is specified, overwrite all parameter set files. If a dry run is requested print file-content associations for files that would have been written.

Writes parameter set files in YAML syntax by default. Output formatting is controlled by output_file_type.

Parameters:

• output_file_type – Output file syntax or type. Options are: ‘yaml’, ‘h5’.

• dry_run – Print contents of new parameter study output files to STDOUT and exit

Raises:

waves.exceptions.ChoicesError – If an unsupported output file type is requested

The set hash coordinate used in WAVES parameter study Xarray Datasets

class waves.parameter_generators.LatinHypercube(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: _ScipyGenerator

Builds a Latin-Hypercube parameter study from the scipy Latin Hypercube class.

Warning

The merged parameter study feature does not check for consistent parameter distributions. Changing the parameter definitions and merging with a previous parameter study will result in incorrect relationships between parameter schema and the parameter study samples.

Parameters:

• parameter_schema – The YAML loaded parameter study schema dictionary - {parameter_name: schema value} LatinHypercube expects “schema value” to be a dictionary with a strict structure and several required keys. Validated on class instantiation.

• output_file_template – Output file name template for multiple file output of the parameter study. Required if parameter sets will be written to files instead of printed to STDOUT. May contain pathseps for an absolute or relative path template. May contain the @number set number placeholder in the file basename but not in the path. If the placeholder is not found it will be appended to the template string. Output files are overwritten if the content of the file has changed or if overwrite is True. output_file_template and output_file are mutually exclusive.

• output_file – Output file name for single file output of the parameter study. Required if parameter sets will be written to a file instead of printed to STDOUT. May contain pathseps for an absolute or relative path. Output file is overwritten if the content of the file has changed or if overwrite is True. output_file and output_file_template are mutually exclusive.

• output_file_type – Output file syntax or type. Options are: ‘yaml’, ‘h5’.

• set_name_template – Parameter set name template. Overridden by output_file_template, if provided.

• previous_parameter_study – A relative or absolute file path to a previously created parameter study Xarray Dataset. If a previous parameter study exists, it is merged into the current study upon generation. Set name to content associations of the previous study are preserved when the parameter spaces between the previous and current study are identical.

**kwargs,

)

Bases: ParameterGenerator

Build a parameter study with single-value changes from a nominal parameter set.

The nominal parameter set is created from the first value of every parameter iterable.

Parameters must be scalar valued integers, floats, strings, or booleans

The nominal parameter set will always be the first parameter set, e.g. parameter_set0 for the default set_name_template.

Parameters:

• parameter_schema – The YAML loaded parameter study schema dictionary - {parameter_name: schema value} OneAtATime expects “schema value” to be an ordered iterable. For example, when read from a YAML file “schema value” will be a Python list. Each parameter’s values must have a consistent data type, but data type may vary between parameters.

• output_file_template – Output file name template for multiple file output of the parameter study. Required if parameter sets will be written to files instead of printed to STDOUT. May contain pathseps for an absolute or relative path template. May contain the @number set number placeholder in the file basename but not in the path. If the placeholder is not found it will be appended to the template string. Output files are overwritten if the content of the file has changed or if overwrite is True. output_file_template and output_file are mutually exclusive.

• output_file – Output file name for single file output of the parameter study. Required if parameter sets will be written to a file instead of printed to STDOUT. May contain pathseps for an absolute or relative path. Output file is overwritten if the content of the file has changed or if overwrite is True. output_file and output_file_template are mutually exclusive.

• output_file_type – Output file syntax or type. Options are: ‘yaml’, ‘h5’.

• set_name_template – Parameter set name template. Overridden by output_file_template, if provided.

• previous_parameter_study – A relative or absolute file path to a previously created parameter study Xarray Dataset. If a previous parameter study exists, it is merged into the current study upon generation. Set name to content associations of the previous study are preserved when the parameter spaces between the previous and current study are identical. If the parameter spaces are unique, the current study will propagate the parameter spaces to resolve them. This will break set name to content associations of the previous study.

• require_previous_parameter_study – Raise a RuntimeError if the previous parameter study file is missing.

• overwrite – Overwrite existing output files

• write_meta – Write a meta file named “parameter_study_meta.txt” containing the parameter set file names. Useful for command line execution with build systems that require an explicit file list for target creation.

class waves.parameter_generators.SALibSampler(sampler_class: str, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: ParameterGenerator, ABC

Builds a SALib sampler parameter study from a SALib.sample sampler_class.

• fast_sampler

• finite_diff

Warning

For small numbers of parameters, some SALib generators produce duplicate parameter sets. These duplicate sets are removed during parameter study generation. This may cause the SALib analyze method(s) to raise errors related to the expected parameter set count.

Warning

The merged parameter study feature does not check for consistent parameter distributions. Changing the parameter definitions and merging with a previous parameter study will result in incorrect relationships between parameter schema and the parameter study samples.

Parameters:

• sampler_class – The SALib.sample sampler class name. Case sensitive.

Set name to content associations of the previous study are preserved when the parameter spaces between the previous and current study are identical. If the parameter spaces are unique, the current study will propagate the parameter spaces to resolve them. This will break set name to content associations of the previous study.

• overwrite – Overwrite existing output files

• write_meta – Write a meta file named “parameter_study_meta.txt” containing the parameter set file names. Useful for command line execution with build systems that require an explicit file list for target creation.

• kwargs – Any additional keyword arguments are passed through to the sampler method

Variables:

• self.parameter_distributions – A dictionary mapping parameter names to the scipy.stats distribution

• self.parameter_study – The final parameter study XArray Dataset object

Raises:

• waves.exceptions.MutuallyExclusiveError – If the mutually exclusive output file template and output file options are both specified

• waves.exceptions.APIError – If an unknown output file type is requested

• RuntimeError – If a previous parameter study file is specified and missing, and require_previous_parameter_study is True

To produce consistent Sobol sequences on repeat instantiations, the **kwargs must include either scramble=False or seed=<int>. See the scipy Sobol scipy.stats.qmc.Sobol class documentation for details. The d keyword argument is internally managed and will be overwritten to match the number of parameters defined in the parameter schema.

Example:

>>> import waves
>>> parameter_schema = {
...     'num_simulations': 4,  # Required key. Value must be an integer.
...     'parameter_1': {
...         'distribution': 'uniform',  # Required key. Value must be a valid scipy.stats
...         'loc': 0,                   # distribution name.
...         'scale': 10
...     },
...     'parameter_2': {
...         'distribution': 'uniform',
...         'loc': 2,
...         'scale': 3
...     }
... }
>>> parameter_generator = waves.parameter_generators.SobolSequence(parameter_schema)
>>> print(parameter_generator.parameter_study)

parameter_study_to_dict() → dict[str, dict[str, Any]]

Return parameter study as a dictionary.

Used for iterating on parameter sets in an SCons workflow with parameter substitution dictionaries, e.g.

>>> for set_name, parameters in parameter_generator.parameter_study_to_dict().items():
...     print(f"{set_name}: {parameters}")
...
parameter_set0: {'parameter_1': 1, 'parameter_2': 'a'}
parameter_set1: {'parameter_1': 1, 'parameter_2': 'b'}
parameter_set2: {'parameter_1': 2, 'parameter_2': 'a'}
parameter_set3: {'parameter_1': 2, 'parameter_2': 'b'}

Returns:

parameter study sets and samples as a dictionary: {set_name: {parameter: value}, …}

write(output_file_type: Literal['h5', 'yaml'] | None = None, dry_run: bool = False) → None

Write the parameter study to STDOUT or an output file.

Writes to STDOUT by default. Requires non-default output_file_template or output_file specification to write to files.

If printing to STDOUT, print all parameter sets together. If printing to files, overwrite when contents of existing files have changed. If overwrite is specified, overwrite all parameter set files. If a dry run is requested print file-content associations for files that would have been written.

Writes parameter set files in YAML syntax by default. Output formatting is controlled by output_file_type.

parameter_1: 1
parameter_2: a

Parameters:

• output_file_type – Output file syntax or type. Options are: ‘yaml’, ‘h5’.

• dry_run – Print contents of new parameter study output files to STDOUT and exit

Raises:

waves.exceptions.ChoicesError – If an unsupported output file type is requested

Warning

This module is considered experimental pending early adopter end user trial and feedback.

The QOI xarray data array and dataset handling of create_qoi() and create_qoi_set() should be stable, but the output plotting and reporting formatting is subject to change.

waves.qoi.create_qoi(

name: str,

calculated: float = nan,

expected: float = nan,

lower_rtol: float = nan,

upper_rtol: float = nan,

lower_atol: float = nan,

upper_atol: float = nan,

lower_limit: float = nan,

upper_limit: float = nan,

**attrs,

) → DataArray

Create a QOI DataArray.

If you create a QOI with calculated values, and a separate QOI with only expected values, you can combine them with xarray.merge([calculated, expected]).

Parameters:

• name – QOI name

• expected (calculated,) – Calculated and expected QOI values, respectively.

• upper_limit (lower_rtol, lower_atol, lower_limit, upper_rtol, upper_atol,) – Tolerance values which set the acceptable range of calculated QOI values. Any or all of these tolerances may be specified. If lower_rtol or upper_rtol are specified, expected must also be specified. The calculated QOI value will be considered within tolerance if it is greater than or equal to max((lower_limit, expected + lower_atol, expected + abs(expected * lower_rtol)) and less than or equal to min((upper_limit, expected + upper_atol, expected + abs(expected * upper_rtol)). Unspecified tolerances are not considered in the tolerance check. If no tolerances are specified, the calculated QOI will always be considered within tolerance.

• attrs – Attributes to associate with the QOI. Recommended attributes are: group, units, description, long_name, version. Together name and attrs['group'] should distinguish each QOI from every other QOI in the Mod/Sim repository. In other words, group should be as specific as possible, e.g., “Local Test XYZ Assembly Preload” instead of just “Preload”.

Returns:

QOI

Example:

>>> load = waves.qoi.create_qoi(
...     name="load",
...     calculated=5.0,
...     units="N",
...     long_name="Axial Load",
...     description="Axial load through component XYZ",
...     group="Assembly ABC Preload",
...     version="abcdef",
...     date="2025-01-01",
... )
>>> load

waves.qoi.create_qoi_set(qois: Iterable[DataArray]) → Dataset

Create a QOI dataset containing multiple QOIs from a single simulation.

This operation combines multiple QOIs (xarray.DataArray``s) into a single "QOI Set" (``xarray.Dataset) using xarray.merge(). This results in an xarray.Dataset with each QOI represented as a separate data variable. Each QOI must have a unique name. If multiple QOIs share a dimension name then that dimension will be merged across QOIs. This can lead to sparse Datasets if the dimension’s index values differ. To avoid this, use unique dimension names or avoid combining those QOIs into the same QOI set. No attributes will be set at the top-level Dataset, but QOI attributes will be preserved at the data variable level.

Parameters:

qois – Sequence of QOIs.

Returns:

QOI Set containing each QOI as a separate data variable.

Example:

>>> load = waves.qoi.create_qoi(
...     name="load",
...     calculated=5.0,
...     units="N",
...     long_name="Axial Load",
...     description="Axial load through component XYZ",
...     group="Assembly ABC Preload",
...     version="abcdef",
...     date="2025-01-01",

...     name="gap",
...     calculated=1.0,
...     units="mm",
...     long_name="Radial gap",
...     description="Radial gap between components A and B",
...     group="Assembly ABC Preload",

Exceptions

Module of package specific exceptions.

The project design intent is to print error messages to STDERR and return non-zero exit codes when used as a command line utility (CLI), but raise exceptions when used as a package (API). The only time a stack trace should be printed when using the CLI is if the exception is unexpected and may represent an internal bug.

Most raised exceptions in the package API should be Python built-ins. However, to support the CLI error handling described above some exceptions need to be uniquely identifiable as package exceptions and not third-party exceptions. waves.exceptions.WAVESError() and RuntimeError exceptions will be be caught by the command line utility and converted to error messages and non-zero return codes. Third-party exceptions represent truly unexpected behavior that may be an internal bug and print a stack trace.

This behavior could be supported by limiting package raised exceptions to RuntimeError exceptions; however, more specific exceptions are desirable when using the package API to allow end-users to handle different collections of API exceptions differently.

exception waves.exceptions.APIError

Bases: WAVESError

Raised when an API validation fails, e.g. an argument value is outside the list of acceptable choices.

Intended to mirror an associated argparse CLI option validation.

exception waves.exceptions.ChoicesError

Bases: APIError

Raised during API validation that mirrors an argparse CLI argument with limited choices.

exception waves.exceptions.MutuallyExclusiveError

Bases: APIError

Raised during API validation that mirrors an argparse CLI mutually exclusive group.

exception waves.exceptions.SchemaValidationError

Bases: APIError

Raised when a WAVES parameter generator schema validation fails.

exception waves.exceptions.WAVESError

Bases: Exception

Define the base class for WAVES exceptions.

All exceptions that must be caught by the CLI should derive from this class.
