good catch, that's a bug.
The thing is, looper
section is not really required -- you can provide the output_dir
(and any other looper.X
setting using the CLI). So for output_dir
one can use --output-dir $HOME
. But this is considered experimental, so we specify the looper
section as required in the docs: http://looper.databio.org/en/latest/defining-a-project/
In your case none of the options to provide output_dir
were used, which needs to be accommodated.
If running
looper run
with a PEP without alooper
section, looper throws an error that is hard to understand:If a
looper
section is really required in the PEP, then a message stating that is absent should be presented.
