Output files overwritten

[nathankota]

Output folder contents are overwritten each time the tool is run. Successive tool runs should keep previous outputs and add new results.

[steveoh]

the current work around for this is to choose a separate folder for the output

I'm not sure how this is happening because

DEQ-TankRisk/src/tank_risk.py

Lines 90 to 94 in 03d1e6b

	Outputs.output_gdb_name = 'TankRisk_{}.gdb'.format(Outputs.unique_time_string)
	Outputs.output_gdb = os.path.join(Outputs.output_directory, Outputs.output_gdb_name)
	Outputs.output_table_name = 'TankRiskResults_{}'.format(Outputs.unique_time_string)
	Outputs.output_csv_name = 'TankRiskResults_{}.csv'.format(Outputs.unique_time_string)

generates unique folder names based on a time string which is unique every second.

I also cannot reproduce. Is this something the client is experiencing?

[nathankota]

Yes, client is experiencing. Further client testing of this has been requested, using a different output location.

[steveoh]

It appears that pro deletes the contents of the folder on each run. What do you suggest we do here?

[nathankota]

Maybe it becomes part of their workflow to transfer and save output files to a different directory. I'll discuss with DEQ.
