GLOBUS-JOB-GET-OU(1)

💖 globus-job-get-output-helper — a lil page from the Grid Community Toolkit Manual 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual for globus-job-get-output-helper (it's a (1) section page, so like, a user command, iykyk) and it's literally all about displaying the output or error stream from a GRAM job. that's the NAME bit. slay.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

globus-job-get-output-helper TAG JOBID { stdout | stderr } { no | LINES
} { no | LINES } URL

globus-job-get-output-helper -help | -h | -usage

like. look at her. six positional args and a URL and she's not sorry about it 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so globus-job-get-output-helper is an internal interface — meaning she's not out here for randos to call directly, she's the backstage crew. she gets used by the globus-job-get-output program to copy output back to a GASS server. the way that this works is: the program is submitted via the globusrun command, and then it executes globus-url-copy to actually transfer the data. teamwork, periodt. 🫶

the invocation for this command is created in the RSL arguments</> by the globus-job-get-output program. and here's the important tea: the arguments are positional and may change in future releases. so don't get attached, bestie 😭. their meaning rn is:

1. GASS cache tag for the output file
2. GRAM job id
3. Stream to transfer (stdout or stderr)
4. Number of lines to include (from the end of the file) for one time processing, or no
5. Number of lines to include (from the end of the file) for tail -f processing, or literal no
6. GASS server URL to send the data to

numbered list energy because they're literally numbered arguments, no notes. ⭐
