8.5.2. Run Class

class parflow.tools.core.Run(name, basescript=None)

Bases: BaseRun

Main object that can be used to define a ParFlow simulation

Parameters:

• name (str) – Name for the given run.

• basescript (str) – Path to current file so the simulation execution and relative path will be assumed to have the script directory as their working directory. If not provided, the working directory will be the directory where the python executable was run from.

Methods

parflow.tools.core.Run.from_definition	Method to generate a Run object from a file.
parflow.tools.core.Run.get_name	Returns name of run
parflow.tools.core.Run.set_name	Setting new name for a run
parflow.tools.core.Run.write	Method to write database file to disk
parflow.tools.core.Run.write_subsurface_table
parflow.tools.core.Run.clone	Method to generate a clone of a run (for generating run ensembles, etc.)
parflow.tools.core.Run.run	Method to run simulation
parflow.tools.core.Run.check_nans	Check the input files for NaNs.
parflow.tools.core.Run.dist	Distribute a PFB file using the P/Q/R settings from the run or override them with the provided arguments.
parflow.tools.core.Run.undist	Undistribute a PFB file.

Inherited Methods

parflow.tools.core.Run.details	Return details based on a location.
parflow.tools.core.Run.doc	Return docs based on a location.
parflow.tools.core.Run.get_children_of_type	Return a list of PFDBObj of a given type that are part of our children.
parflow.tools.core.Run.get_context_settings	Return global settings for our current parflow run.
parflow.tools.core.Run.keys	Gets the key names necessary for the run while skipping unset ones
parflow.tools.core.Run.pfset	Allow to define any parflow key so it can be exported. Many formats are supported: - key/value: To set a single value relative to our current PFDBObj. - yaml_file: YAML file path to load and import using the current PFDBObj as root. - yaml_content: YAML string to load and import using the current PFDBObj as root. - hierarchical_map: Nested dict containing several key/value pair using the current PFDBObj as root. - flat_map: Flat dict with parflow key/value pair to set using the current PFDBObj as root.
parflow.tools.core.Run.select	Return a PFDBObj object based on a location.
parflow.tools.core.Run.to_dict	Method that will return a flat map of all the ParFlow keys.
parflow.tools.core.Run.to_pf_name	Helper method returning the key to use for Parflow on a given field key.
parflow.tools.core.Run.validate	Method to validate sub hierarchy
parflow.tools.core.Run.value	Return a value based on a location.

Attributes

parflow.tools.core.Run.data_accessor	Return a DataAccessor to streamline access to numpy array of the various field this run is linked to.
parflow.tools.core.Run.full_name	Helper method returning the full name of a given ParFlow key.
