apart from being "ugly" having the folder "logfiles" at the grid level, is there any technical/logical backdraft to it?
In my view there is no backdraft to it, except that it looks more ugly and that one can't collect subgrid folders that easily anymore (one needs to exclude the "logfiles" folder). But in terms of data consistency, going for option 3 would be the right way to go, I guess.
CN and BBM just decided to remove "logfiles" etc completely from yeoda_path within geopathfinder. It just deals with geodata and its structure logfiles folders are completely governed by the workers and wrappers
In regard to the
yeoda_path
convention, the "logfiles" folder is at the same level as the "data_version" level at the moment. The advantage is that the level below "data_version" solely consists of sub-directories in a spatial context, e.g. different Equi7 continents.However, in the context of job file logging under "logfiles", which are bound to a certain data version, we have the issue that they are hierarchically not connected with the different data versions anymore. This means if someone wants to move data produced with a specific version somewhere else, then it needs to be assured that the respective log files are also moved.
This issue could be solved by either:
