Filenames for plots #11

Closed kbarbary closed 9 years ago

@nicolaschotard What are the requirements for how plot files should be named for deploying on the CC? Should the caller be able to specify the full name of every plot, via a config file?

Currently, cubefit-plot works by taking a plot prefix, and cubefit determines the suffix for each of the different plots it makes. For example, the caller can specify that the prefix should be /path/to/dir/PTF09fox_B and then plots

/path/to/dir/PTF09fox_B_epoch00.png
/path/to/dir/PTF09fox_B_epoch01.png
/path/to/dir/PTF09fox_B_epoch02.png
...

will be created.

No need for too high a flexibility using a config file (or use reasonable defaults). The name of the output figures will be hard-coded in the plan for registration in the DB, so don't use too complex a name scheme.

OK, we'll stick with the current behavior for now. Determining the output names in the plan file should just be a matter of:

outputnames = ["{0}_epoch{1:02d}.png".format(prefix, i) for i in len(inputnames)]
