DESCRIPTION

   usage:    yade-batch    [options]    [    TABLE    [SIMULATION.py]    |
   SIMULATION.py[/nCores] [...] ]

   yade-batch   runs   yade   simulation  multiple  times  with  different
   parameters.                                                         See
   https://yade-dem.org/sphinx/user.html#batch-queuing-and-execution-yade-batch
   for details. Batch can be specified either with parameter  table  TABLE
   (must  not  end  in  .py),  which  is  either  followed  by exactly one
   SIMULATION.py (must end in .py), or contains !SCRIPT column  specifying
   the  simulation  to  be  run.  The second option is to specify multiple
   scripts, which can optionally have /nCores suffix to specify number  of
   cores for that particular simulation (corresponds to !THREADS column in
   the parameter table), e.g. sim.py/3.

   optional arguments:
   -h, --help
          show this help message and exit

   -j NUM, --jobs NUM
          Maximum number of simultaneous threads to run  (default:  number
          of  cores,  further  limited  by  OMP_NUM_THREADS  if set by the
          environment: 4)

   -v, --version
          Print version and exit.

   --job-threads NUM
          Default number of threads for one  job;  can  be  overridden  by
          per-job  with !THREADS (or !OMP_NUM_THREADS) column. Defaults to
          1.

   --force-threads
          Force jobs to not use more cores than  the  maximum  (see  \-j),
          even if !THREADS colums specifies more.

   --log FORMAT
          Format of job log files: must contain a $, % or @, which will be
          replaced by script name, line number or  by  description  column
          respectively (default: $.@.log)

   --global-log FILE
          Filename  where  to  redirect  output  of  yade-batch itself (as
          opposed to \-\-log); if not specified  (default),  stdout/stderr
          are used

   -l LIST, --lines LIST
          Lines of TABLE to use, in the format 2,3-5,8,11-13 (default: all
          available lines in TABLE)

   --nice NICE
          Nice value of spawned jobs (default: 10)

   --cpu-affinity
          Bind each job to specific CPU cores; cores  are  assigned  in  a
          quasi-random  order, depending on availability at the moment the
          jobs is started. Each job can override this setting  by  setting
          AFFINE column.

   --executable FILE
          Name      of      the      program      to     run     (default:
          /build/yadesbF0Yy/yade-2016.06a/debian/tmp/usr/bin/yade).   Jobs
          can override with !EXEC column.

   --gnuplot FILE
          Gnuplot file where gnuplot from all jobs should be put together

   --dry-run
          Do  not  actually  run  (useful  for  getting  gnuplot only, for
          instance)

   --http-wait
          Do not quit if still serving overview over http repeatedly

   --plot-update TIME
          Interval (in seconds) at which job plots will be updated even if
          not  requested via HTTP. Non-positive values will make the plots
          not being updated and  saved  unless  requested  via  HTTP  (see
          \-\-plot-timeout  for  controlling  maximum age of those). Plots
          are saved at exit under the same name as the log file, with  the
          .log extension removed. (default: 120 seconds)

   --plot-timeout TIME
          Maximum age (in seconds) of plots served over HTTP; they will be
          updated if they are older. (default: 30 seconds)

   --refresh TIME
          Refresh rate of automatically reloaded web pages (summary, logs,
          ...).

   --timing COUNT
          Repeat  each  job  COUNT  times,  and output a simple table with
          average/variance/minimum/maximum   job   duration;   used    for
          measuring how various parameters affect execution time. Jobs can
          override the global value with the !COUNT column.

   --timing-output FILE
          With \-\-timing, save measured durations  to  FILE,  instead  of
          writing to standard output.

   --randomize
          Randomize  job  order  (within  constraints  given  by  assigned
          cores).

   --disable-pynotify
          Disable screen notifications
