Suggest portable if running non-portable #778

Open anders-kiaer opened 3 years ago

anders-kiaer commented 3 years ago

Most of the FMU plugins using data from /scratch will give a poor user experience if run "live" (i.e. not portable). We could suggest for the user to run in portable mode if data from scratch is being used?

Depends on https://github.com/equinor/webviz-config/issues/249. After that it could be enough with checking for non-portable, and if so give a warning here: https://github.com/equinor/webviz-subsurface/blob/bf1bff60ce3ee8cfe67ece084f62a8e2a37b7265/webviz_subsurface/__init__.py#L23-L46

Another alternative to checking for scratch_ensembles in shared_settings is following up this idea: https://github.com/equinor/webviz-config/issues/236. That will enable more fine tuning of when to give the portable suggestion.
