file_stream: Create a stream of files

In mrgsim.parallel: Simulate with 'mrgsolve' in Parallel

Create a stream of files

Description

Optionally, setup a locker storage space on disk with a specific file format (e.g. fst or feather).

Usage

file_stream(n, locker = NULL, format = NULL, where = NULL, ...)

Arguments

n	The number of file names to generate; must be a single numeric value greater than or equal to 1.
locker	Passed to setup_locker() as dir; important to note that the directory will be unlinked if it exists and is an established locker directory.
format	Passed to format_stream().
where	An optional file path; this is replaced by locker if it is also passed.
...	Additional arguments passed to file_set().

Details

Pass locker to set up locker space for saving outputs; this involves clearing the locker directory (see setup_locker() for details). Passing locker also sets the path for output files. If you want to set up the path for output files without setting up locker space, pass where.

x[[1]]
