ufo-launch and tofu commands output one large .tif #188

Closed rmaciver closed 4 years ago

rmaciver commented 4 years ago

The output of ufo-launch and tofu is one large TIF file. I expect from previous work with ufo-kit that the results will be written as multiple files. After splitting into individual files, the output looks ok, the main issue is that a multi-page file is output. I am running ufo-kit in a Docker container built with the master branch of ufo-core and ufo-fiters (10 October). The tiff dependency is libtiff5-dev.

Even the simplest pipeline will output a multi-page file rather than individual files, for example, reading a path with 10 .tif files:

ufo-launch -t read path=*.tif ! write filename=output/%05i.tif

I do not encounter this issue with docker containers built with the ufo-core and ufo-filters .deb packages: the output is split into multiple .tif files as expected.

Can anyone suggest what to check to solve this issue? Thanks, R. MacIver

The default behavior of UFO has changed in order not to overwhelm filesystems with many files. If you need the old behavior, please use the bytes-per-file=0 flag in the writer. If you want single tif files which are not BigTiff, please also use tiff-bigtiff=False.
