Bug #14389
--tmpdir and eventdump.fcl don't get along
Description
nova --tmpdir $somedir -c eventdump.fcl $somefile.root gives this
Module label: out1 module_type : FileDumperOutput Unsupported parameters: + tmpDir [ ]
I think the --tmpdir command line argument should only set the option on modules where it's going to work (or alternate output modules should have dummy tmpDir parameters that do nothing).
This is more aggravating than you'd expect since I have this in my .bashrc
# Banish RootOutput and TFileService temp files alias nova='nova --tmpdir /dune/data/users/bckhouse/tmp/'

There is a straightforward fix that we could implement. However, we would like to investigate whether we can inject the parameter in a smarter fashion based on whether a supported configuration has been specified a la the configuration validation system.

- Estimated time changed from 2.00 h to 12.00 h
Time re-estimated from 2 to 12 hours. It is possible to do the smarter solution, and we will pursue that option.

The tmpDir parameter is now injected into TFileService and only output modules whose allowed configurations support it.
Resolved with commits fhicl-cpp:41f8eef and art:26c1267.
