Is the "DIRECT_PATH" checkbox actually used ? #388

Closed pchoisel closed 9 months ago

pchoisel commented 9 months ago

In the plugin's settings page, there is a When possible, send local file paths to the worker to avoid downloading files checkbox.
It is wired to the worker.direct_path conf key, wired to the DIRECT_PATH setting.
This is later used in girder_worker/girder_plugin/utils.py::girderInputSpec.

Problem is, I can't find any usage of this girderInputSpec function anywhere in the code, nor in girder and girder_jobs. Is this actually used somewhere or is it unused ?

Thanks in advance

girderInputSpec is something that downstreams would call into when configuring their specific task.
