Task inputs

Use ewoksutils.task_utils.task_inputs() to create inputs for a task.

By task identifier

Select a task by its task identifier and provide its inputs:

from ewoksutils.task_utils import task_inputs

inputs = task_inputs(
    task_identifier="ewokscore.tests.test_tasks.SumTask",
    inputs={"a": 10, "b": 20},
)

Tip

task_identifier can be a full task identifier or a suffix of one. For example, task_identifier="SumTask" matches "ewokscore.tests.test_tasks.SumTask".

By task ID

For a workflow with explicit task IDs, select the task by its ID:

inputs = task_inputs(
    id="sum_task",
    inputs={"a": 10, "b": 20},
)

By task label

A task can also be selected by its label:

inputs = task_inputs(
    label="sum",
    inputs={"a": 10, "b": 20},
)

Multiple tasks

Inputs for multiple tasks can be combined using their task identifiers:

inputs = [
    *task_inputs(
        task_identifier="LoadData",
        inputs={"filename": "data.h5"},
    ),
    *task_inputs(
        task_identifier="ProcessData",
        inputs={"threshold": 0.5},
    ),
]
