BbkDatasetTcl
The command BbkDatasetTcl produces a TCL file for one or more datasets,
rather like skimData -t. For a recent version, use release 14.4.0c or later.

you can create a 'site'. Here BbkConnect to find out more.

Like for BbkDatasetHistory a full list of
datasets will be printed if BbkDatasetTcl is run without arguments:-
% BbkDatasetTcl
% BbkDatasetTcl: 3 datasets found:-
% AllEventsRun3Conv
% GridKa.32955-36172
% ...
Most of the dataset names should be self-explanatory. For SP datasets, you
can use BbkSPModes to determine the relevant
"mode numbers" and other information.
datasets
This option accepts a list of comma separated datasets names.
If specified alone this option will only return the name of the
datasets. If specified with tcl option it will create a (set) of tcl
files.
% BbkDatasetTcl --datasets AllEventsRun3Conv
tcl
To generate a TCL file, specify one or more of these dataset names on the
command line, eg.
% BbkDatasetTcl --datasets AllEventsRun3Conv --tcl
this is equivalent to the skimData command
% skimData -t -G good_run3.txt
-s Jpsitoll --tableprefix=objy
BbkDatasetTcl creates a TCL file named after the first-specified dataset
(eg. AllEventsRun3Conv). A different output file name
may be specified with the -t option (-t- prints the output on standard
output).
% BbkDatasetTcl --datasets AllEventsRun3Conv
--tcl [MAXEVTS[,SEQNO]]
is also like skimData the difference being that it
creates a tcl (if there are no arguments) or a series of tcl for each
dataset selected. The number of events in each tcl files (if the MAXEVT
argument is given, is exactly the one selected.
A one-line summary of everything selected is reported at the end.
% BbkDatasetTcl --tcl --datasets AllEventsRun1 --site local
% Selected 22 collections, 163588/163588 events, 9.1/nb
start, end
% BbkDatasetTcl -e 2003/11/27-12:00 AllEventsRun3Conv
This allows
one to obtain the state of the dataset as it was at any time in the
past. The -s option will only include collections added
since that date (cannot account for removed collections).
marker, newer, older
% BbkDatasetTcl --datasets AllEventsRun3Conv
--marker
will create a marker file with the date of the current selection and
the datasets selected. The info is stored in $HOME/.bbk/BbkDatasetTcl/lastsession.sav.
% BbkDatasetTcl --datasets AllEventsRun3Conv
--newer
will try to read the marker file, if it exist and return only the
newer entries for the same datasets.
% BbkDatasetTcl --datasets AllEventsRun3Conv
--older
will try to read the marker file, if it exist and return only the
older entries for the same datasets.
This options are not compatible with --end --start if called together
the program exit.
basename
% BbkDatasetTcl --datasets AllEventsRun3Conv
--basename [FILENAME]
this is to have all the DS selected in a tcl file or a series
of tcl files with the same name as FILENAME
If more than one Ds is selected to go in the same tcl the user is warned
of the dangerousness of what he is doing but the program doesn't exit.
See the help display from BbkDatasetTcl -h for details of the command options.
