ifdh commands¶

Note that many of these commands rely on the environment variable
IFDH_BASE_URI being set, i.e.
export IFDH_BASE_URI="http://samweb-minerva.fnal.gov:20004/sam/minerva/api"

• ifdh cp src dest
  • general file copy using cpn or srmcp
    ifdh cp [--force=srm|gridftp|cpn|expftp] [-r] src1 dest1 [ ";" src2 ... dest2 [ ";" ... ] ]
ifdh cp [--force=srm|gridftp|cpn|expftp] -f listfile
ifdh cp [--force=srm|gridftp|cpn|expftp] -D [-r] src1 src2 destdir1 [ ";" src3 src4 ... destdir2 [ ";" ... ] ]
    One can also set IFDH_FORCE= in the environment rather than using --force=
• ifdh ls dest [ depth [--force=srm|gridftp|cpn]]
  • list file or directory
  • also confirms existence
• ifdh mkdir dest [--force=srm|gridftp|cpn]
  • make directories
• ifdh rm dest [--force=srm|gridftp|cpn]
  • remove files
• ifdh rmdir dest [--force=srm|gridftp|cpn]
  • remove directories
• ifdh fetchInput src_uri
  • get input file to local scratch, return scratch location
• ifdh addOutputFile filename
  • add output file to set
• ifdh copyBackOutput dest_dir
  • copy output file set to destination with cpn or srmcp
