NWPC Data Client

A CLI client for operation system files in CEMC/CMA.

Features

Find file path for operation system data in CMA HPC.
🚧 Find file path in external storage nodes from CMA HPC.
🚧 Download data file through a data service.

Installing

Download the latest release and build source code.

Use Makefile to build project on Linux and nwpc_data_client command will be installed in bin directory.

Getting Started

nwpc_data_client has several sub-commands.

local

nwpc_data_client local command finds local files on CMA HPC.

nwpc_data_client local --data-type some/data/type \
    --start-time start_time \
    --forecast-time forecast_time

data-type is some relative path under config directory. Such as

grapes_gfs_gda/grib2/modelvar
gmf_graeps_gfs/bin/modelvar

start_time is YYYYMMDDHH and forecast_time is FFFh.

For example, use the command below to find GMF GRAPES GFS GRIB2 data of 24 forecast hour in start hour 00 on 2018/09/03.

$nwpc_data_client local --data-type=grapes_gfs_gmf/grib2/orig --start-time 2018090300 --forecast-time 24h
/g2/nwp_pd/NWP_PST_DATA/GMF_GRAPES_GFS_V2.2_POST/togrib2/output_togrib2/2018090300/gmf.gra.2018090300024.grb2

To list all data types available in some configure directory, run following command

nwpc_data_client local --show-types

Results may be like:

grapes_gfs_gda/bin/modelvar
grapes_gfs_gda/bin/postvar
grapes_gfs_gda/grib2/modelvar
grapes_gfs_gda/grib2/orig
grapes_gfs_gmf/bin/modelvar
grapes_gfs_gmf/bin/postvar
grapes_gfs_gmf/grib2/modelvar
grapes_gfs_gmf/grib2/ne
grapes_gfs_gmf/grib2/orig

Use --config-dir to set a custom config file directory.

hpc

nwpc_data_client hpc command find files on HPC-PI or external storage nodes from HPC-PI.

Data files could be on HPC's local storage nodes (eg. /g2) or external storage nodes which are mount to special HPC login nodes.

nwpc_data_client hpc --config-dir=config_dir --data-type=some/data/type \
    --start-time start_time \
    --forecast-time forecast_time

hpc support all options of local, and has more options to access external storage nodes using ssh protocol.

--storage-user: user to login, default is environment variable USER
--storage-host: host to login, default is 10.40.140.44:22
--private-key: private key file path, default is $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
--host-key: host key file path, default is $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts

Currently only no password private key is supported, and user should test to access remote host manually before using this command.

paths field in hpc's config file has two types:

local for local files
storage for files on external storage.

For example, use the command below to find GDA GRAPES GFS modelvar data of 000 forecast hour in start hour 00 on 2019/05/20.

$nwpc_data_client hpc --data-type=grapes_gfs_gda/bin/modelvar --start-time 2019050200 --forecast-time 0h
storage
/sstorage1/COMMONDATA/OPER/nwp/GRAPES_GFS/GDA_GRAPES_GFS/Fcst-9h/2019050121/modelvar2019050121_000

The command return two lines:

first line is path type: local or storage.
second line is file path.

If no file is found, both lines will be value of default field in config file.

paths section of a config file may like this:

paths:
  - type: local
    level: archive
    path: /g2/nwp/OPER_ARCH_TEST/nwp/GRAPES_GFS/GDA_GRAPES_GFS/Fcst-9h/{.Year4DV}{.Month4DV}{.Day4DV}{.Hour4DV}
  - type: storage
    level: storage
    path: /sstorage1/COMMONDATA/OPER/nwp/GRAPES_GFS/GDA_GRAPES_GFS/Fcst-9h/{.Year4DV}{.Month4DV}{.Day4DV}{.Hour4DV}
