A job's dependency attribute can take several forms :
- <jobid>
complete-job-<jobid>link-<state>-<type>-<jobid>info-<state>-{'',[]}
The info syntax is only used when the dependencies are defined in a job's callbacks, in which case the job's dependency attribute only is used to inform WranglerView on how to draw the Dependency Graph layout. This syntax resembles a python dictionary, and several characters are significant:
- * - mean each frame
- '' (blank) - means entire job
Examples:
Wait for job 900 to complete
900
Wait for job 529 to complete
link-complete-job-529
Link to job 430 on a frame-by-frame basis, as each frame in job 430 completes, unblock the corresponding frame in this job.
link-complete-work-430
The job has several layers or dependencies:
info-complete-{'1':['540:3'], '*':['600:*'], '':['700']}frame 1 waits for frame 3 in job 540
and each frame waits for the corresponding frame in job 600
and the entire job waits for job 700
The job has several layers or dependencies:
info-complete-{'':['123','456'], '*':['345:*'], '10':['346:2', 346:4']}- the entire job waits for jobs 123 and 456
and each frame waits for the corresponding frame in job 345
- and frame 10 waits for:
- frame 2 in job 346
- and frame 4 in job 346
