gwgen archive

Archive one or more experiments or a project instance

This method may be used to archive experiments in order to minimize the amount of necessary configuration files

usage: gwgen archive [-h] [-d str] [-f str]
                     [-fmt { 'gztar' | 'bztar' | 'tar' | 'zip' }] [-p str]
                     [-ids exp1,[exp2[,...]]]] [-P] [-na] [-np]
                     [-e str [str ...]] [-k] [-rm] [-n] [-L]

Optional Arguments

-d, --odir	The path where to store the archive
-f, --aname	The name of the archive (minus any format-specific extension). If None, defaults to the projectname
-fmt	The format of the archive. If None, it is tested whether an archived with the name specified by `aname` already exists and if yes, the format is inferred, otherwise ``’tar’`` is used Possible choices: bztar, gztar, tar, zip
-p, --projectname
	If provided, the entire project is archived
-ids, --experiments
	If provided, the given experiments are archived. Note that an error is raised if they belong to multiple project instances
-P=False, --current-project=False
	If True, `projectname` is set to the current project
-na=False, --no-append=False
	It True and the archive already exists, it is deleted
-np=False, --no-project-paths=False
	If True, paths outside the experiment directories are neglected
-e, --exclude	Filename patterns to ignore (see :func:`glob.fnmatch.fnmatch`)
-k=False, --keep=False
	If True, the experiment directories are not removed and no modification is made in the configuration
-rm=False, --rm-project=False
	If True, remove all the project files
-n=False, --dry-run=False
	If True, set, do not actually make anything
-L=False, --dereference=False
	If set, dereference symbolic links. Note: This is automatically set for ``fmt==’zip’``
