add human job name with wildcards

[sravel]

if I've understood the documentation, you use the run_uuid as the job name. In snakemake 7 profiles, I use wildcars to identify jobs. I also use the rules logs so that the slurm logs are in the same directory.

    output: '{log.output}_cluster'
    error: '{log.error}_cluster'
    job-name: '{rule}.{wildcards}'

is it possible to implement these options in this plugin?

thanks in advance

The special job names are there for the reason to limit the number of queries necessary to the slurmctld. Which is a handy feature when many jobs are spawned by snakemake.

However, we had the request in the past and I found this also a little bit annoying. Hence, a "comment" was inserted to contain the rule name. You can inquire with commands like: sacct -o jobid,comment,nodelist,state. I was, however, not able to amend the docs accordingly and indicate shortcuts and the like. Thank you for providing this issue - I will only close it, when sufficient documentation is present.

I'm sorry, but I don't see how to add a wildcard to a job on the documentation, while you are removing a feature available on snakemake 7 ???? I want to use wildcard because if all the jobs have the same name (or comment), you won't be able to see which samples are running... I also use wildcard for job name to link slurm log to a sample. Thanks
