I was wondering how I would run a linux terminal bash script using PDG. Something like the Unix sop node, but in TOPS. It is just a one line script (it is actually just “deadlineslave” to start a Deadline slave on my workstation).
Though I haven't utilized PDG, I can assist brainstorm! While there may not be a direct counterpart to the Unix sop node, try these methods:
Command Launch: PDG may feature a "command launch" capability to perform a shell command. You may execute your "deadlineslave" script directly. PDG manual explains how to do this.
Python Script: If PDG enables Python code, build a small Python script that calls os.system to execute your bash script. A more structured approach may give greater flexibility.
Let me know if you try either and how it goes! If not, a forum member may know PDG-specific information.
